@XiaoxiWang5 yes, parents should learn the negative psychological effects that can be caused by this addiction.

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

@HacheyAndrew yeah it would propably reduce it but it will always be present.

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

@seldibenedetto1 yeah, if people learned to have a discussion and reacted logically rather than emotionally there'd be a lot less of this.

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

as well as all the additional ads we're seeing, consumerism was revolutionized through a new shopping experience: online shopping. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

social media (with the help of digital code) has taken consumerism to a whole new level. in addition to hearing ads on the radio and seeing them on newspapers, ads are now on every media platform. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

another reason why social media can be a source of sadness & anxiety is the decrease of face-to-face social interactions. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

I think that one of the main reasons social media makes people vulnerable to depression and dissatisfied with their lives is the tendency to compare themselves with their others. when in reality almost everything on social media is fake nowadays. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

the addiction to "likes" is real. people will often do things which under different circumstances would never do just to get more exposure and likes. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

parents should be aware of the consequences of social media addiction before on teens. many parents blindly give their children smartphones at a very young age thinking it's harmless. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

spending too much time online can also increase the risk of insomnia and depression. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

i read an article that people who spend more time on social media than the average person were more likely to develop a negative opinion about their own physical features. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

It's important for us to be aware of the negative psychological effects of spending too much time on social media. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

the digital code designs how we should perceive information shared amongst us online. most people think it's just natural interactions between internet surfers when in reality everything we view is controlled. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

I think social media is the effective tool used by many industries to promote consumerism and make us think that we need their product / brand to be "happy". #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

understanding why certain things are so popular online is critical. we become more aware of how companies use these viral media posts to market their products / change our views on certain things. #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

digital code governs the internet, for example If you just happen to like a meme that went viral you'll probably be seeing a lot more memes and soon enough your feed is going to be just distractions and pointless things #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

digital code's the main reason why so many people are so distracted by memes and random videos that went viral while knowing nothing about the actual issues happening in the world #educ307

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

@taniavaccarell1 @KishanP66563695 i strongly recommend it. It gives you a (scary) idea about where we're heading with all this technological innovation happening. maybe start after finals cause you'll end up binge-watching it

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

@Ben21Sar @CatherinePaler5 @cass_educ307 If people learn not to care about what others online think of them they'll start enjoying life more and recording less. i think most social media interactions (stories, ig posts etc) are just to show off. it's a way for people to say "hey, look what I have that you don't have."

[mohamed sobhan ben hassine @BenSobhan]

@orla38226404 yeah. people now prefer to live a fake life online.
