It is indistributable that social netowrks are rapidly becoming favored among people with different ages. Nevertheles making private information accessible in social media may cause problem. I personally admit that activities in social media networks may have some risks which affect private life , however, I reckon that merits of social media override its drawbacks.
It has been discussed that social media users are always prone to different types of incidences. Cyber frauds are usually escalated through collecting personal information, in first step. Subsequently, the cyber criminals try to take advantage of thee inform victims which is usually resulted in finishing(transferring money from accounts illegally) or sexual harassment via getting access to private mages of the victim. And normally, the cyber victims are very young or very old users who are not educated enough to protect themselves while using social networks.
On the other hand, there is no doubt about the values which social media has added to modern life. These types of networks, have provided a range of critical services to almost all social levels. Rapid and inexpensive access to medical contents and consultants through different free programs which broadcast for elderly persons have made their life easier. In terms of the available services for youngesters, educational programs are no longer confined to a limited group of people, thanks to ubiquitous availability of social media. Moreover, there is no need to mention how many jobs are created, taking advantage of social networks.
In the end, I do believe that the advantages of social networks are far more than the disadvantages. and to marginalize cyber criminals, the vulnerable groups of users, including children and elderly individuals, need to be informed to protect their private asets. Indeed, they should be educated about the security options which social networks provide, so that the users can be sheltered while using social media.
