Impact of Private Social Media Sites on this generation

Private social media is the platform where the user can control whom they want to communicate with, who can see their contents and what information they share and whom they share it with.

A few of the advantages private social media sites are as follows;

  • Social media keep us connected with our friends family and colleagues no matter where in the world they are, as long as they have the right device and Internet connection.
  • Where it was almost impossible for people who have traveled abroad to stay in touch with their distant family members or school friends as international call rates were very high and the call time was restricted. So if someone was going to spend some money on making a phone call they might as well just call their siblings, parents or spouse ad kids. Now with social media sites and Internet, people can keep in touch from all over the world, Facebook has given the platform for people to find their friends from school and stay in touch with them from across the world.
  • Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp are private social media platforms where you can call your friend and family and can share your daily life events on the statuses etc you can share any live events with your loved ones over the video call.
  • Nowadays business hold video conferences from different branches of a business
  • People are even taking job interviews on Skype video call to see if they need to hire someone without them having to travel across the city, country or continent for that matter.
  • Social media has helped so much for advertisements. So people can promote their businesses on social media
  • On websites like stock, Facebook markets, etc people can sell their used and unwanted stuff which would otherwise just take up space and earn some extra cash.
  • You can get news feeds in your social media sites keeping you aware of your surroundings.
  • Social media has been a platform for so many people to share their view and be heard who otherwise would be ignored

Disadvantages of private social media sites are as follows

  • On private networks, you sometimes don’t even know whom you are sharing the information with. Someone can actually exploit you.
  • Teenagers have been victims of cyberbullying by private forums set up by particular school students or by people in general
  • When you are communicating with someone you have never met on social media sites you don’t know what kind of person you are actually dealing with. People sometimes give wrong information and con people out of private information or even money.
  • People are getting so indulged in the social media and online friends that they end up ignoring people who are around them, they become anti-social, thinking that they are actually specializing.
  • There are so many hackers and scammers out there that sometimes it’s to hard to tell the difference between genuine business and a scam.
  • And as good as it is to stay in touch with people and know more about what is going on in your loved ones’ lives, it can sometimes not be very healthy to know so much about other lives that you lose track of your own. People end up comparing their lives with others. For instance, Your best friend and her husband went to dinner in a restaurant you have to go too, without keeping in mind your own budget. People enjoy the moments less and post them on Instagram more just to show other people that they are having fun, which in fact they might not.
