Social Media Week

How Social Media Uses Your Data

Social Media Data refers to all of the raw information collected from individuals through social media activity, and tracks how users engage with content and platforms. Through artificial intelligence and algorithms, social media analyzes your behavior and uses the data for advertising, marketing and even propaganda. Every social media platform has a different algorithm. The main platforms used today are Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram.

Dangers of Social Networks

If Social Media is used irresponsibly, it can have emotional, social, financial, and even legal consequences. In some cases, it can even lead to personal data being shared. Children and teenagers are especially exposed to the social media risks, but this doesn’t mean that adults, authorities, banks, and even large internet companies are not immune. In the digital world, it’s social networks that are flashing beacons for hackers and cyber criminals.

Public Content Can Be Seen By Everyone

In searching for a new job or looking for the love of your life, social media offers many possibilities to leave an impression on others, both positive and negative. People can get their first impression of you by checking your social media profiles. Hackers are one of the biggest threats because they can falsify content or distribute viruses and worms after they’ve taken over an unsuspecting victim’s account. Social media lets you see the carefully selected best parts of everyone else’s lives, which you compare to the negatives in your own life. Social networks are full of dangers, which could have profound consequences on you or your business. You can avoid many of these pitfalls just by using these networks carefully.
