ACTIVITY 3:
CONFRONTING TECHNOLOGY’S DANGEROUS DOMINION
1. INTRODUCTION
The present digital rise has allowed the integration of smartphones, the internet, and social media – to
name a few – in the population’s daily habits. However, alongside this technological evolution is a
culture of virtual harassment, whereas anonymity in the digital world is taken advantage of by proprietors
seeking good laughs without any consideration of its large-scale negative effects.
2. STATEMENT OF CASE
Cyberbullying is the use of social media and any device connected to the internet to inflict emotional and
social abuse to anyone being. Millennials, constituting 93% of the internet users around the world are
considered the most vulnerable to this kind of abuse.
3. PROPOSITION
While putting a halt on cyberbullies and their malicious remarks would be a good idea, the
underlying solution to this problem is removing the culture of dependence on remarks yielded
from this platform, anchored on the philosophy that technology does not and will never define
someone or dictate his ways of life.
Undoubtedly, social media have secured an efficient and effective avenue of connecting lives
across borders. People are fond of expressing their opinions in any way possible, and social
media is widely tapped to satisfy such desire. Also, the internet has been a tool that stimulates
healthy discussion of socially-relevant issues. Take Gretchen Diez for example, a member of the
LGBT community who had caused an online outrage upon sharing her experience of being kicked
out of a woman’s bathroom for her sexual orientation. Since then, moral discussions and debates
have risen from this issue.
4. REFUTATION
However, the fabrication of false stories, emergence of parodies and memes, and cyber abuse that came
thereafter was absolutely uncalled-for. Such attacks, taking form in a variety of ways, are directly linked
to mental health issues such as depression and anxiety. The victim, upon excessive exposure to such
negativities, may suffer from self-consuming thoughts that incidentally lead to suicide or attempts of
such.
5. SUBSTANTIATION
And here is where the validation becomes relevant. If only people would quit the mindset claiming that
social media is everything then such outcomes won’t take place. It is primarily because of the fact that a
lot of people take digitally-generated statements too seriously that they suffer the consequences and risk
their lives. Once cyberbullying is experienced, the chief solution should be the refusal to respond at all,
since the latter could only escalate the problem. On later stages, deactivation – whether tentative or long-
term – would be ideal to completely detoxify from social media. Furthermore, once it takes a toll on
someone’s mental health, then consultation to psychologists for professional health is the way to go.
6. CONCLUSION
However, it all boils down to keeping true to the essence of this platform – to connect and disconnect. We
should connect to people with similar interests to us, and disconnect from those who won’t do any good.
We should ponder upon the consequence of every click before pursuing. And most importantly, if an
action poses potential of destroying someone else’s life – despite it being a good source of fun – it
shouldn’t be done at all.
