SOCIAL NETWORK

4. Spread of Misinformation: Social networks can inadvertently contribute to the spread of misinformation and fake news. The ease of sharing content without proper verification can lead to the rapid dissemination of false information, which can have significant social and political consequences. 5. Comparison and FOMO: Social networks often create a culture of comparison, where users constantly compare their lives, achievements, and experiences to others. This can lead to feelings of inadequacy, low self-esteem, and FOMO, as individuals feel they are missing out on the experiences portrayed by others.
