@leximwri The presence of social media, let alone cell phones will shape who they are not only when they're adults, but immediately, when they are still kids. The teacher's point of view says a lot, as there's more harm done, compared to without social media at that age. #BeachSMC

Fitness influencers have been going viral recently. This inspiration comes with expectations, and when they aren't met, people's mental health deteriorates even if their physical health is great. It's important to recognize how far you've come. #BeachSMC

This article measures how much we care about social risks when expressing our opinions on social media. I've noticed it myself, as more people that I know are opening up on social media who used to be very shy and not post much. #BeachSMC

@TharyKuch The article confirms that people would rather listen to people's opinions on a topic rather than news from mainstream sources. This could be bad, as algorithms on social media can hide info that go against someone's beliefs, resulting in them not getting all the facts #BeachSMC

It's odd to see the general migration from scrolling to messaging. This could result in social media not being as valuable as it once was for businesses trying to advertise, simply because people are messaging each other instead of scrolling #BeachSMC

I don't think about my personal information leaking when I go online, but the concept of private information has become a hot topic the past few years. It'll be interesting to see how new programs like Matrix and Mastodon affect the digital world #BeachSMC

@Martinez1Jacibe Very very controversial to say the least. Elon's wild decision to change "Twitter" to "X" has only brought social controversy and a lawsuit. He better have some grand scheme that's going to pay off in the future, because the platform isn't doing so hot right now #BeachSMC

[Alden @AldenLandis]

This article pitches the idea of SocialFi, which gives users a form of cryptocurrency, giving each user actual value based on their presence online. Sounds like a new way to affect the social status of someone based on how much they're online #BeachSMC

Looking at the results of this study, people use Twitter to interact with misinformation that supports their own viewpoints. Based on my own limited experience on Twitter, I can definitely see the affect that some people's opinions have throughout the platform #BeachSMC

A new EU study finds that Twitter (X) has the highest rate of disinformation of any major social media platform.

@Jackiecsulb Looks like the Fediverse is a mountain that the tech and social media industries intend to climb in the future. Seems like it has the potential to change the way social media will be used after its development, but only time will tell. #BeachSMC

[Alden @AldenLandis]

Looks like TikTok is the place to be for literally everything. Using Wikipedia to enhance the searching process will give users a vast library of opinions and guidelines for things like finding restaurants, learning new hobbies, or anything else you want to discover #BeachSMC

[The Verge @verge]

Some search results on TikTok now include a snippet and link to Wikipedia. https://t.co/5Ib5OboSOj

This new proposed bill seems like a great Supreme Court case in the future, that's if it goes through. I'm sure kids nowadays are capable of getting past an age verification so that they can scroll on Instagram or TikTok #BeachSMC

@Rudy_A2022 We think it's a glitch now, but who's to say it's not AI actually going rogue and testing its own limits in the cage we built for it. Let's hope the cage will hold it in and that social media companies will be honest about their experience controlling AI #BeachSMC

[Alden @AldenLandis]

Facebook full of controversy once again. Unmonitored and outdated, it seems to just be an anchor for Zuckerberg's public image. Might be best to put it down before it takes you down with it #BeachSMC

[Phaedra @PhaedraXTeddy]

Why why WHY do you want to give illegal #Monkeytorture a platform @Meta #MarkZuckerberg?Are you a FAN?
#Trump even outlawed these videos in #USA on #socialmedia, yet here we are !

From one social media platform to the next, he still stays on top. Hopping from YouTube to Snapchat, he still racks in the audience which companies like Celsius use to get their new products out on the market #BeachSMC
