Misuse of cyberspace in the society

Social Media is beneficial when you use it right. It's NOT for stalking people. It's for knowing where people are, what people do, what they think, and what's happening now to their life. It's NOT for showing to other people that you're with some people (especially someone you meet a lot of time) right now, meanwhile actually you don't have the real social time with them because you're to busy with your gadget. It's for knowing your far distance friends, hard to meet friends and your long time friends, what they're doing recently, and how's thing going with them. Many people, especially from the new 21st century generation make the social media as a place to show of their richness, their ability to do something, and to become famous instantly. In the other side there's also people who do just natural just they are but they're famous because of their talents. Every social media have their own purpose. For example, YouTube is a social media who embrace the use of video as a communications media. In the other side, Instagram offer the use of Photos (and now short videos) as a communication media. Meanwhile when it comes to proffesional world and get connected to people and friends, then LinkedIn and Facebook can be in the top of the chart. I do believe that several talented people who wizard at their career or job can get benefit from the right social media. People who do arts and design on Instagram, with routine post and consistent posting materials can get to 500k followers. Meanwhile people who do photography on Instagram, where photos speak for themselves, can get to 1m or more followers. Different with Instagram, YouTube can embrace people who are good at public speaking and filmology. And people who do advance in those matters can get more viewers and followers in YouTube rather than in Instagram. When Social Media used wrongly, then the benefit will fade out and disadvantage will come. We've heard about several crimes committed from social media, whether it's from Facebook, Twitter, online dating site, and so on. The crimes just not a physical crime, like thieving, or some kind of murdering etc, but actually from sharing illegal site for underage, showing pornography to the society, and other cyber crime can threatens the law and humanity and also give an opportunity for crime to happens furthermore. In conclusions, we can say that social media can brings more goods than harms itself, when people realize what they can get and using it right. The age limit from social media is not border for us to go to social media. I mean when the age limit is 17, that people have to be at least 17 to join the media, because maybe people already know and able to decide for themselves what's good and what's not. We don't have to use all the social media, but we only have to use some social media, which can connected us to what our purpose is. When we want to connected with friends and family, then Facebook is a good choice. When we want to show our photograph and our artwork we can use Instagram at its best. And when we want to train out public speaking skill, or want our voice to be heard, then YouTube is perfect for you. Using it right, bring the benefit to yourself and others
