10 Advantages and Disadvantages of Social Media for Society
Social media has grown tremendously in the last few years. From 2006 onwards the
growth rate is unexpectedly very high. Specially facebook and Twitter have grown
much faster and captured millions of users in just a few years. The way technology is
growing, it is obvious that more and more people are going to grasp its benefits. It
has brought a lot of advantages for the society. From progressed nations to under-
developed countries, every nation is utilizing the power of social media to enhance
life and use it for the bitterness of the people.
However, on the other hand it has also affected the society in the negative way. Just
like anything which can be used for both good and bad, social media have also
provided the negative and positive ways for the people. It is all about the usage and
getting things done positively by using the power of social media. It is in the hands of
the user to use to its advantage. But willingly or unwillingly it can still have negative
impacts on the users. Today in this article I am going to discuss both the advantages
and disadvantages of the social media for the society.
Lets start with the disadvantages first, because the advantages are numerous and
everything is perceived to have a positive effect unless it is used negatively.
10 Disadvantages of Social Media for the Society
2: Hacking Personal data and privacy can easily be hacked and shared on the
Internet. Which can make financial losses and loss to personal life. Similarly, identity
theft is another issue that can give financial losses to anyone by hacking their
personal accounts. Several personal twitter and Facebook accounts have been
hacked in the past and the hacker had posted materials that have affected the
individuals personal lives. This is one of the dangerous disadvantages of the social
media and every user is advised to keep their personal data and accounts safe to
avoid such accidents.
3:- Addiction The addictive part of the social media is very bad and can disturb
personal lives as well. The teenagers are the most affected by the addiction of the
social media. They get involved very extensively and are eventually cut off from the
society. It can also waste individual time that could have been utilized by productive
tasks and activities.
4:- Fraud and Scams Several examples are available where individuals have
scammed and commit fraud through the social media. For example, this list contains
the 5 social media scams that are done all the time.
5:- Security Issues Now a days security agencies have access to people
personal accounts. Which makes the privacy almost compromised. You never know
when you are visited by any investigation officer regarding any issue that you
mistakenly or unknowingly discussed over the internet.
6:- Reputation Social media can easily ruin someones reputation just by creating
a false story and spreading across the social media. Similarly businesses can also
suffer losses due to bad reputation being conveyed over the social media.
7:- Cheating and Relationship Issues Most of the people have used the social
media platform to propose and marry each other. However, after some time they turn
to be wrong in their decision and part ways. Similarly, couples have cheated each
other by showing the fake feelings and incorrect information.
8:- Health Issues The excess usage of social media can also have a negative
impact on the health. Since exercise is the key to lose weight, most of the people get
lazy because of the excessive use of social networking sites. Which in result brings
disorder in the routine life. This research by discovery will shock you by showing how
bad your health can be affected by the use of the social media.
9:- Social Media causes death Not just by using it, but by following the stunts and
other crazy stuffs that are shared on the internet. For example bikers doing the
unnecessary stunts, people doing the jump over the trains and other life threatening
stuffs. For example in this video 14 year old from Mumbai was doing stunts on a
running train which caused his death. These types of stunts are performed by the
teenagers because of the successful stunts made and shared over the social media.
10:- Glamorizes Drugs and Alcohol One of the disadvantages of the social
media is that people start to follow others who are wealthy or drug addicted and
share their views and videos on the web. Which eventually inspires others to follow
the same and get addicted to the drugs and alcohol.
10 Advantages of Social Media for the Society
1:- Connectivity The first and main advantage of the social media is connectivity.
People from anywhere can connect with anyone. Regardless of the location and
religion. The beauty of social media is that you can connect with anyone to learn and
share your thoughts.
2:- Education Social media has a lot of benefits for the students and teachers. It is
very easy to educate from others who are experts and professionals via the social
media. You can follow anyone to learn from him/her and enhance your knowledge
about any field. Regardless of your location and education background you can
educate yourself, without paying for it.
3:- Help You can share your issues with the community to get help and giddiness.
Whether it is helping in term of money or in term of advice, you can get it from the
community you are connected with.
4:- Information and Updates The main advantage of the social media is that you
update yourself from the latest happenings around in the world. Most of the time,
Television and print media these days are biased and does not convey the true
message. With the help of social media you can get the facts and true information by
doing some research.
5:- Promotion Whether you have an offline business or online, you can promote
your business to the largest audience. The whole world is open for you, and can
promote to them. This makes the businesses profitable and less expensive, because
most of the expenses made over a business are for advertising and promotion. This
can be decreased by constantly and regularly involving on the social media to
connect with the right audience.
6:- Noble Cause Social media can also be used for the noble causes. For
example, to promote an NGO, social welfare activities and donations for the needy
people. People are using social media for donation for needy people and it can be a
quick way to help such people.
7:- Awareness Social media also create awareness and innovate the way people
live. It is the social media which has helped people discover new and innovative
stuffs that can enhance personal lives. From farmers to teachers, students to
lawyers every individual of the society can benefit from the social media and its
awareness factor.
8:- Helps Govt and Agencies Fight Crime- It is also one of the advantages of the
social media that it helps Governments and Security Agencies to spy and catch
criminals to fight crime.
9:- Improves Business Reputation Just like it can ruin any business reputation, It
can also improve business sales and reputation. Positive comments and sharing
about a company can help them with sales and goodwill. Since people are free to
share whatever they want on the social media, it can impact positively when good
words are shared.
10:- Helps in Building Communities Since our world has different religions and
beliefs. Social media helps in building and participating in the community of own
religion and believes to discuss and learn about it. Similarly, people of different
communities can connect to discuss and share related stuffs. For example Game
lover can join games related communities, car lover can join communities related to
cars and so on.
These are some of the advantages and disadvantages of social media for the
society. However, these are the enough advantages and disadvantages to
decide which way to go on the social media.
1)
Assalamualaikum and good morning to my beloved teachers and dearest friends. We are
from 1 DLP. Before we start our talk, we would like to introduce ourself. My name is
Nuraina. This is my friends, Nuraini, Herlin and Amni Afiqah. We are going to talk about
social networks. Do you guys know what is social network? The example for social
networks are Facebook, instagram, twitter, wechat and many more apps that are widely
There are many different opinions to social networks. Some think it is stupid to share
every single thought with the world even if it is very unnecessary, some think that it is
the best way to tell your friends what you are doing or to see what they are going to do.
People and society is always fighting about whether there are more risks or useful
opportunities.
2)
A big advantage of social networks is, that you can stay in touch with your friends and
family from all around the world. So, you can send them a picture or post some funny
videos on their wall to make them see it. For example, if your son or your daughter is
living maybe somewhere in the US and he/she has a child that you are barely seeing in
Austria, its wonderful to have a social network like Facebook, where you see some new
photographs and some important information about your proper grandchilds childhood.
Another huge benefit is that if you press like or follow on pages or blogs that you are
interested to, you always get the newest piece of information and you always be up to
date. Also, you know about every event from your favourite band, for instance. You will
be informed about the bar, the club or the stadium where they have their gig. Thus, you
The probably worst disadvantage of social networks is that your whole life is saved on
the internet forever. That means, nothing can be completely removed from your
browser. If you are on social networks, everyone can find you there. So, its a big risk of
being stalked by someone dangerous. They may find out where you live to rape or injure
you because of such strange reasons, that not even them could complain it logically.
The social networks are making you lazy too. You will spend too much time on reading
blogs and writing statuses. However, in this time you could have gone to a public place
or something else to meet your friends. Also, your grades at school may get worse
because you spend your time for studying on browsing through the world wide web
searching for new pieces odd information or things to share with your friends. You soon
can become addicted to social networks, which is obviously not good, but if you are
careful and still use your free time spending with your friends and books for school,
everything is alright.
4)
My own opinion is, that social networks are fundamental a very good thing, because you
have all your friends, not essential how far they are away, around you. I use some
networks even everyday and I try nit to post too much information about my location or
my plans. Despite the big disadvantages, I will still use my Facebook, Twitter,
After all, you will see that if you use your networks or in general personal stuff wisely, it
is not a problem if you share some things with people you like. Therefore, a huge tip is
to just accept people to see you profiles if you really know and like them. Otherwise, you
