The author has discussed some issues related to social media and he has concluded that problems that surround social networking exist and could destroy the life of the user if no precautions are taken. For that reason, users have to make sure that they protect their data all the time and be careful in interacting with different users. By remembering these challenges, users will be able to protect themselves from negative repercussions on some issues on social network.

The author has conclude these issues as:

 

Privacy as the Main Concern

Attacks on different social networking website are always a possibility because the data protected by social networks are too precious to be ignored by attackers. Viruses, spywares and worms that aim to crawl through security protocols of social networks are constantly threatening social networks. Considerable time and resources are always spent by social networks in order to maintain privacy of their users. A single attack could make every user vulnerable to security related problems such as identity theft.

 

Information Access

Some website allow any user to access information of persons even though they are not part of the user’s network while some social network prohibit access to any form of information without confirmation from the profile owner. Problems regarding information access could be completely controlled by user but unauthorized access could still happen especially for those who are just starting to understand the rules of different social networks.

Updated Notification

Every social network provides real time notification usually through email if there are any changes in the user’s profile. But most notifications are very limited and they are usually on the positive things that happened on the social network.

Misuse of Social Networks

There are those who use social network for scams and other illegal purposes. There have been reports around the world that social networks are used to spread rumors, lies or degrading messages that could affect the person’s reputation. “Cyber bullying” or an act of being hostile to another user online has also been observed in some social networks.

Protection for Children

Aside from privacy and misuse of social networks, the vulnerability of minors is also a big problem for all social networks. While some social networks are geared towards adults, most social networks are open to everyone – including minors. Unfortunately, minors on social networks could become targets of sexual predators that can cloak their real identity in different social networks.
