IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL

 

It’s Not Illegal, It’s Just Toxic

 

Social media is a double-edges sword, it has the power to do real good, but also the power to hurt.

Social media has provided people with the opportunity to show their personal lives. We can share the good things in our lives with others, share interesting things and inspire our passion for a brighter life. It allows friends we don’t often contact to know what we’re up to and stay in touch. Through the dynamics we post, others on social media can easily get to know each other and maintain friendships, regardless of time or place but it’s worth thinking about using it wisely and safely. Simultaneously, the negative impact of social media cannot be ignored.

With the rise in popularity of social networking sites in societies and communities, people become isolated and fragmented. Young people are more receptive to this change, and they are willing to spend most of their time on these sites. This situation has terrible consequences for their physical and mental health. In addition, families are primarily affected by this, and their social ties no longer exist in contemporary times. People are becoming more and more addicted to these sites, and their social activities are becoming less and less. The relationship between propaganda and fake news has created many personal and social dilemmas.

However, the worst part is that social media and platforms have a much more negative impact on teenagers, especially young girls

 

My humble opinion is that section 507 IPC is a regulation that needs to be considered for repeal. When there are too many negative influences and misinformation on a social platform, the censorship of the platform needs to be improved. When users post messages on social media platforms that advocate violence and hate, all the media need to do is increase their monitoring efforts and keep the toxic messages to a minimum. 

WE SHALL NOW REST OUR WORDS AND TAKE ACTION!!
