maxiev Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 you can be stalked privacy is compromisedTrue. Privacy may be compromised. I don't know how many people have been killed or committed suicide because of Facebook. Jealous boyfriends (or girlfriends) who see posts of their significant other in the company of other people can make them violent. Some young kids commit suicide after they are bullied on Facebook. These have been known to happen all over the world. Quote Link to comment

chessboxin Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Social network sites like Facebook makes you think that you're missing out on a lot of things. You see your friends going abroad, eating out every other day, going out with friends, buying expensive bags and shoes, getting a new car, getting married etc. 1 Quote Link to comment

RED2018 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 Twitter’s dark underbelly is that it gives people a veil of anonymity: they can have a terrible day at work, feel awful about themselves, come home and get drunk and go call someone ugly on Instagram.If people don’t have anyone to talk to about their problems, they go online and just say wicked, gross, cruel mean-spirited things about people.

dub682 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 negative aspect for social networks. My opinion only 1. Eats up literally your time2. Instead of doing something productive like study, finish work, etc, social media may provide a form of entertainment, especially nowadays like kardashian's break the internet thing.3. Lots of social media noise these past few months. Quote Link to comment

BettyConfidential Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I hate it when people rant about their partners or family members in Facebook. Even if its vaguebooking, you know who they are referring to. Awwwkward. Quote Link to comment
99PercentCaffeine Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) The Lost Art of Conversation The past decade brought about perhaps the most radical and indelible change in communication technology, the most significant of which is the birth and continuing growth of social media. For many, networks such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, are among the most useful tools when it comes to finding new friends, tracking down old ones, and making a name for themselves in the online landscape. One cannot help but wonder, however, if Social media has in fact improved human relationships and how people approach the prospect of widening their circle. The world before Smartphones, Apps, and tablets was one where people actually speak to each other. Now, it appears that most people prefer to type as opposed to talk. I find it rather ironic that given the sheer number of available ways that people can reach their friends and family, relationships have become even more difficult to establish, let alone maintain. Conversation is slowly becoming a lost art, if it isn't already. Even those who take time to sit down down with friends and kin still usually end up having their eyes and fingers glued to the screen. Perhaps it is a change imperceptible to those who cannot be bothered to notice, but the truth is that many of us use technology (in the form of Social Media) to further detach ourselves from things that really matter. Why call up a friend to ask how his/her day went when you can simply send a seemingly clever "sticker" to make your sentiments known? Why bother writing letters when you can send a "tweet" that conveys your affection for another human being? When the brilliant minds behind Social Media and Touch Technology first came up with their ideas for such platforms, I believe their intention was to bring people closer together. I do not suppose it was their dream to open the doors to an entirely unrecognizable world where everyone says (or more specifically types) LOL this and LMFAO that. Has technology and Social Media inadvertently robbed us of some of the best moments in life? Those precious hours that could have been spent conversing with like-minds may very well be lost. It is in the nature of human beings to grow and evolve. This is a well documented fact since we discovered fire and decided to start cooking our meals. Yet, here we are, obsessively finding new ways to shorten words into almost incomprehensible abbreviations just to save on "characters"; taking photos of anything and everything so we can post them online for the purpose of fostering a false sense of community and kinship with virtual strangers. One scary thought that occurred to me is that we are devolving, that we are regressing as a specie because we fail to recognize that the leaps in bounds in Comm Technology can irreparably damage the society we so painstakingly built. Perhaps the real downside of Social Media is how people decide to use it these days. What was once conceived as a tool for keeping people close to one another has become a wedge that creates more division. The good news is that we can always make better choices, one of which is to use Social Networking and other forms of communication to cultivate meaningful relationships and mutually beneficial connections.
