Social menaces

Social media issues we all need to be aware of

Social media, as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary, are forms of electronic communication through which users create online communities to share information, ideas, personal messages, and other content such as videos and pictures. Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are just a few of many social networking sites prevailing at the present time. Such sites offer opportunities for people to express themselves and gain more friends. Those who are normally shy come out of their shell, while holding on to that auspicious right of being anonymous. However, while it can be very helpful and convenient, yielding to social networking sites has also its downsides.
