    Social media has both advantages and disadvantages. It allows people to easily connect and share information with vast networks. However, it can also negatively impact health and privacy. Excessive social media use is linked to issues like cyberbullying, hacking, and decreased face-to-face social skills. While social media enables opportunities for income, education, and activism, people must be aware of privacy and security risks and find a balanced approach to reap benefits and avoid harm.

    Intro

    Social media is a term that describes a person's ability to affect other people's
    social thinking in
    a community. The endless social media sites, from Facebook to LinkedIn, make it
    accessible to
    interact with many people, but, as everything, it has its pros and cons. The more
    influence a
    person has the more ability he has on other person's mind. The impact of social
    media has
    made spaces among human beings, they might sit together (physically) but they are
    not
    connected to each other (mentally). Social media has influenced us so much that our
    lives our
    dependent on them. We cannot survive a minute without internet. Social media is
    slowly killing
    activism and replacing it with slacktivism. Social media has positive and negative
    impact on our
    lives, here we will discuss some of them.

    Advantages of Social Media


    There are many advantages of social media. Social media has become very advanced.
    It has
    become a source of income for some people. Through social media we are connected
    with
    huge number of people at the same time, and at any place. Nowadays everyone is on
    WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat and have easy access to
    everyone.
    The main advantage of social media is connectivity. Social media also has a vast
    advantage for
    students and teachers. You can learn anything easily with the access of internet.
    You can easily
    get any information without any cost. If you are in any kind of emergency and you
    need money
    you can easily send it with the help of cell phone.
    The other advantage of social media is that you get updated about the happenings in
    the world.
    You get to know about the important happenings around the world. By doing some
    research
    you get to know the proper information, which nowadays you cannot get easily
    through
    television and newspaper. Social media can also be used for noble causes. People
    can easily
    help poor people by collecting donation online.
    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. Social media helps students in
    their life. They
    can easily do their assignment, write an essay, and complete their vocabulary and
    many more.
    With advantages there always come disadvantages. Some are discussed below.

    Disadvantages of Social Media


    There are advantages and disadvantages of everything on a human being. Some
    disadvantages
    are cyberbullying, hacking, fraud, scams, security issues, reputation, privacy,
    health issues etc.
    Disadvantages can cause deaths. Today's society is so influenced of social media
    that they
    spend their whole day on surfing social media. Personal data can easily be hacked
    by hackers.
    Nothing is secured on social media. The minor brain can easily get affected by
    social media.
    Social media has influenced our brains. Hackers hack your personal data and then
    misuses it.
    The user's personal data can easily be accessed by the hacker.
    We spent most of our time surfing which is the main cause we have lost interest in
    other things.
    By using so much of social media most of people face back pains and eyesight comes
    weak.
    Excessive time spent on social media has the effect of making people lose their
    temper quickly,
    since any distraction from their preferred activity sets off a kind of irritation.
    Excessive use of
    social media can cause decrease in face to face communication skills and conveys
    inauthentic
    expression of feelings. Excessive use of social media facilitates laziness. Social
    media causes lack
    of emotional connection.
    Yellow journalism or the yellow press is a type of journalism that does not report
    much real news
    with facts. It uses shocking headlines that catch people's attention to sell more
    newspapers.
    Yellow journalism might include exaggerating facts or spreading rumors.

    Conclusion
    In my opinion it's upon the users to take advantage of the particular thing or the
    disadvantage.
    Social media gives a lot of useful information about good things and also about bad
    things but
    it depends upon the user what to opt for. Social media is very useful for students
    and as well as
    for teachers. They can easily get educated about anything useful. Everything is
    easily available in
    just a click. You can start online business and can earn easily by sitting at home.
    If you misuse
    the use of social media, it can cause you serious mental illness and can cause
    death also. We
    should always go for the benefits.
