SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES

Introduction (manish)
With the advancement in technology, communication has grown. It is now easier and cheap
to communicate and connect with people across the world. The issue of distance is no
longer an excuse for lack of communication.

(Main)
Social networking sites allow us to communicate with family, friends and the masses of the
world. Social networking platforms like facebook, twitter, pinterest and instagram allow us
contact known as well as unknown people.Sites like linkedin and useful in work and
business networking.

. Humans are essentially social animals. And these social networking sites allow us,
humans, a platform to socialise with people around the globe. Its an age old saying that
humans cant stay in isolation. We think that the modern day equivalent of this saying is that
humans cant stay without social networking sites.

Ban the social networking sites?! Says who?

I bet the people saying this are the ones who have done something wrong. Crappy
government policies, coalgate, aadarsh, fifa or some other scams, everything that catches
public interest will be discussed on these platforms

Banning social networking sites is like muting the voice of 7 billion people.Any injustice in
any corner of the earth faces strong criticism on the social networking platform. For some
people, social networking is the only way to express their views, ideas and resentment
against their day to day life experiences. Consider places like syria, iraq and saudi arabia,
where females are considered as secondary citizens, how do you think, women express
themselves? How do you think they challenge the oppressive society and law? Its through
the social networking sites which allow the users to remain anonymous, and at the same
time allowing them to express themselves. Banning social networking sites will be like
throttling the voices of so many people.

Social networking sites provide a worldwide connectivity , allowing people to find

old friends, coleagues , teachers withou much difficulty. These sites help us to
find people with common interests and hence are an effective way of
advertisment, helping in business. However these social networking sites also
have privacy policies which helps users to protect their private details and
information.

SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES

Social networking sites, a household name,is the most popular online platform
used by the masses to build social networks and relations with friends,family
members and the world at large.
Humans by nature are social animals and social networking sites are just another
outlet for the social instint of humans. It is an age old saying that humans can
not stay in isolation. We believe that the modern day equivalent of this saying is
that humans can not stay without social networking sites.
In this world of complexity, it is the social networking sites like facebook, twitter,
which help us to keep in touch with our friends and family. Physical distances
have been bridged through sites like facebook, twitter and linkedin. Sharing
exciting news and day to day happenings in the world through statuses and
posts are a common trend and add spice to an otherwise monotonous life.
Social networking sites also helps the business houses connec t more intimately
with their customers. Thanks to the social networking sites even the small scale
business people can attain visibilty for their products and creations without
having to invest much in the advertising sector. The social networking sites are a
cheap and convenient advertising source and they also have a worldwide reach.
These platforms also allow global interaction among people with different
backgrounds. This allows intermixing of cultures. Through social media, we often
engage in discussions and interactions wih people who are different from us. It
ahs rightfully been said that world has become a village. A village where
connection is possible only through the social networking sites.
Some social media even facilitates people meeting face to face. For instance,
couchsurfing allows us to live for sometime with people whom we have never
met.
Social networking sites allows people living even in the remote corners of the
world to express their views and opinions. For example, the people and more
importantly, the women living in the middle eastern countries like syria, iraq,
iran, libya and saudi arabia have to stand the opressive society rules everyday.
These women are speaking out and raising their voices on the social networking
sites because other than being visible at a global level, the social networking
platforms also allow you the choice of being anonymous . You can express your
views to the world And at the same time ptotect your identity.
The social networking sites like facebook have privacy policies which allows its
users the choice of deciding their audience.

(some laws if possible)

We would like to end by saying that nothing is perfect. Evreything has its
advantages and disadvantages. Its upto the user to decide if its right or wrong,
because we do not live in a utopia.
But banning something is never the solution. Its human nature to do whats
prohibited. Banning will only encourage the social networking sites to bloom
illegaly. Its better and more realistic to regulate social networking sites through
some laws which will make it more safer.
Thank you.
