The future will sort itself. And for your information, this is not happening only in Nigeria. This has been reported since 2005 while Nigeria is still using 3310 I guess - http://www.techaddiction.ca/internet_addiction_statistics.html while a new report was also conducted in 2011 according to Reuters: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-teens-internet-addiction-idUSTRE74I6OA20110520. Even Huffpost had their own side of story about this in 2015. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/tk-facts-about-teens-on-social-media-that-are-really-scary_us_55a7c6f0e4b0896514d06eab Just get use to it Nigga and stop disturbing us here abeg. |

Like anything else, the problem is not with social media but with usage. Anything can be (and often, anything useful is) abused. What one just needs to do is encourage moderation and proper usage instead of blaming the tool for its abuse. |

bareal:Lol. This is like blaming your phone speakers for the bad message contained in a song you are playing, or for how often you play songs. The problem is that many of you guys don't read anything about history. The history you know stopped at what fathers and mothers said about when they were little. I hope you know that in some cultures in the past, people walked about near _naked covering only the lower private parts. Boobs would be bouncing up and down. Even up till our day, a few cultures are still that way. Yet those do not qualify either as indecency or commonplace to you guys. Indecency is only when a girl wears a low-cut dress exposing cleavage and posts on instagram. In the past, the Romans engaged in public sex orgies in some of their festivals. Are you aware? Yet when you see a guy hold a girl at the waist, you scream indecency as if you don't do worse. To you guys, decency is how good one is at pretending. Man has always been a social creature, craving acceptance into the herd. To get accepted, he'd use whatever tool is available. We only happen to have more tools now, so expect man to be more expressive of himself - both the good and the bad. You think it's bad now? It's going to get worse. |

Bahddo: Hmmmm....I am sorry sir, you still do not understand! you just rushed to type an epistle of a response. No argument about when indecency started, as a matter of fact it's from time immemorial. By the way, you and I see the 'SOCIAL MEDIA' and NOT other forms of dissimilating information as the next best thing. |

The point made in the OP is invalid, to me. Previous generations left PLENTY of so called 'useless information' as well. Or do you think every single stone tablet or scroll found contained some important secret of the universe? Or every fragment of 'valuable history' was just written on tablets and scrolls and there were no ridiculous things to be found there? In ancient Rome, people had very many ridiculous traditions that'd make you cringe so hard when you read about them today. In fact, without social media, people in the future would have a harder time understanding the cultural impact of music, television, etc on humans of today. Supposing 'Snapchat filters' were to evolve into, say, a weapon of war, it'd be a very interesting fact to know that these deadly weapons of war were once used by slay queens to look beautiful. Every single part of history is important and that includes the things you look down on today |

It's sad some don't appreciate the gift of social media. Even this forum is a form of social media so really those who condemn others are guilty of the same. The truth is social media gives people a voice that if society had their way they might be silenced. Also it exposes the fakes cause you can see in reality those who live to envy others and even those who present a false image of their life to appear better when in reality they are making ends meet like the rest of us. Don't be jealous if someone is more appreciated or adored on social media it has its reality and it's either you block or mute them if your tired of seeing them. work on yourself everyone started with 0 friends sometimes people aren't just into looks and shallow things that flow with likeliness |

NaijaTechGuy:bro truth be said.. Ur post is rather showing a Lil bit of sentiment like as if u have a problem with platforms, Facebook for example is a collection of every type of humans, u see the jokers and the business men, Instagram has helped us make marketing very simple, following the right channels will get you more informed and about the pictures from what I know, when people date they take professional pictures which they save to the Internet which has proven to be the best place to keep your files. 100 years to come, your children can easily scroll through your Google Drive and relive your life through the pictures, I don't really get ur point on this leaving excess data but I do know that the Internet cannot be exhausted, it has infinite capacity and I can tell you that, no matter how large the junk photos are, there are also a greater amount of very important pictures and info that is stored on the Internet with the help of the social media.. I for example have very important pictures that I save to the Internet that without Facebook, I wouldn't.. |

webincomeplus:I guess yall think that the slaying and all is just for waste, enter Twitter and Instagram and you will understand that if you want to market your goods or a new service, these slay people are invaluable. Even mtn employ the help of the these guys. The honest truth about the social media is if you truly are living a honest life. If you claim that you dislike all these people with snapchat filter and play play indecent girls, you can unfollow them and follow only users that post about history and motivational quotes and discovery. If you are pastor, you can follow Christian channels. And maybe then you can begin to appreciate the social media |

Bahddo:They would be just fine you say,let me remind you of a hidden danger. A good percentage of waste generated from all these tech facilities are radioactive in nature ,and you know what do to the environment. The rate we are going,the future you talked about may just be a mirage. We have already stretched the earth resources What would be left for the future? |
Re: How Social Media Is Silently Ruining The Future by Bahddo(m): 7:21pm On May 14, 2017 |
adoyi81:wait o, bros... You raised a good point, but I don't see the relationship between social media and radioactive waste. Please help me understand. The dog ears the op was complaining about are radioactive or what? |

savagefinder: I try as much not to be sentimental in my posts but like I said everyone is entitled to his or her opinion and I respect that. I only used the platforms as a case study. I don't have any thing against any of the social networks. |

Re: How Social Media Is Silently Ruining The Future by adoyi81: 12:41pm On May 15, 2017 |
Bahddo:I was reacting to a line in your post, where you wrote that "the future would be just". As for relationship between social media & radio-wastes, on both sides of the services I.e provider & user is electronic gadgets which will eventually end up as radioactive waste. Base on stat,the numbers of users is rising exponentially that means more wastes, which most countries can't dispose properly. I m not against technological advancement,but the rise in technological advancement is coming at a cost to the environment. We need to act,that's My honest view. |

Social networks are very important only as a communication tool but also as a tool for business promotion. Yes, I'm talking about digital marketing. Over time, you begin to understand how important it is to use digital marketing tools. At first, I did not believe in the power of digital marketing and the fact that it can somehow affect the development of the business, and only now I realized how important it is to work in this direction and use high-quality software. You can't do digital marketing without SaaS Lifetime Deals software. These guys are real professionals and I have been using their software for various purposes for a long time. |
