The Internet
If we use the metaphor we can say that the Internet is "heaven and hell" for today's society, especially for young people. A flood of social networks, which is supposed to unite people, but it has the opposite effect. Friends at your click. Worldwide, 24 hours a day. They want to talk to me because I am exactly what they need right now. Boy, girl, man, woman, young, old, anyone. However, precisely here there is a trap. If I can be this and it is fun, it can be anyone who has completely different goals and purposes. Therefore, attention is of utmost importance. The problem is that many people, especially teenagers think: "This can't happen to me".
Every day, there were more of those who thought that it can not happen to me, but it did. Psychological violence through social networks is very common, and perhaps even easier than on a personal level because it is not necessary to look the person in the eyes. Or simply because the internet gives us some anonymity, because we hide behind a different name, that gives us security, even if only superficially.
Many users are also unaware that the publication of "1001" information on the internet invites the villains. For example: 'The time is 7:00. On my way home. My goldfish will be home alone "or" Tomorrow we go to the sea. We will be gone for the whole week." Sounds like an invitation.
Of course, someone will say, only my friends can see this. How many of you know all "friends"? Can you all confidently assert that behind that name is just one "friend"?
Even images that are published on the internet can be abused. Therefore, here we have to be a little precaution. Perhaps a matter that is funny today, tomorrow will not be anymore. As you know, when something is online, it is practically impossible to delete. More and more employers are looking the profiles in social networks, so this may also be a reason for caution. You may from time to time find in the media that people lost their jobs because of this or that publication on the internet. Alternatively, because of some statement, you will not get the job.
There is a lot of traps, but we focused on the social networks, because at this moment in our view, constitute one of the major dangers and pitfalls of the Internet.
