The Social Dilemma is a documentary that can be found on Netflix. If you do not have access to Netflix the website is an adequate resource.
1. How do you define the problem in the documentary? Do you think social media is a tool for you? How might you make social media a tool for
I recently watched the documentary on Netflix and the documentary basically deals with the problem related with the social media platforms that how they are being used as a tool to manipulate people for power and money and the data of each and evey user is used against them to manipulate them and make them addictive this documentary showed us that how the tech giants like Google and Facebook are designing their apps according to human psychology in order to make them more addictive and the data collected by these companies are sold out to different companies it also showed that how increase in usage of social media has drastically affected our lives in a negative manner and it seperates us from the important things in our lives . All these problems of social media is very grave and it is crating a negative atmosphere around us which has made our society a hate mongering group and the increase in usage of social media has made our life more miserable we have seperated ourselves from our family and friends and internet bullying has increased a lot if this continues then it will be disastrous for our future generations too
Yes social media is a tool for me and we can make better use of social media than to spread hatred and manipulate people it must must used for good causes like spreading awareness about a sensitive issues like necessity of vaccines in one's life and it must be use to spread positivity in our society rather than a tool to spread hatred among us
