5. Creating a Confirmation Bubble
On Facebook, it is possible for users to control what they see. They can choose to be friends with only those whose ideas and values line up with their own. This can create a false impression that everyone holds the same ideas and an inability to deal with those who think differently. It is important to expose oneself to a diversity of backgrounds and experiences, and when people deliberately decide not to do that, it can lead to ingrained ideas and narrow-mindedness that seeps out into interactions with people in the real world.

It would not too wrong to say that the Internet has destroyed young lives. I have a number of relatives who did poorly in their studies, because they are so focused on Youtube, Facebook, They can hardly concentrate 15 -20 minutes on a Maths book and they flit to the Internet-movies, Youtube, celebrity gossip. If parents don’t control and guide from young, they are gone, lives wasted.

In this new society that we’ve all agreed to be a part of, your Facebook
page is an extension of yourself. For this reason, it’s not a good idea
to post anything there that you wouldn’t normally say it will really get you into trouble.

Quote from # 4:
“Another source of mental anguish is the steady parade of news stories
describing tragic events both locally and globally. Such extended
exposure to unpleasant occurrences can have a detrimental effect on the
well-being of the average Facebook user.”
So they are saying that the news from any news source, including CNN, is not good to listen to. Most of what I see on CNN online is bad news.
