so... I'm doing a bit of a survey, please answer g/u/rls
| What would you classify as social media?
| I would rejoice to the high heavens!
| Without knowing what you'd consider social media(are image/textboards social media? Is youtube social media?), I'd say its disappearance would be mostly positive. People don't get hooked on it, the internet gets more decentralized, it becomes harder to monitor people and everything is chipper But I'm gonna have to disagree because government intervention on it would be a ridiculous breach of liberty. Also similar stuff would pop up from some loophole so it's not worth it.
| Social media is not only digital.
Speech is a medium for communication, and therefore for socialization. Air is a medium that lets sound propagate, and thus is one of the "lowest level" medium that can convey socially understood information.
>tfw I'm taking stuff out of context...
| I am against it, hikikomori like can only interact with other people this way
| I don't use social media so I would be completely unaffected
| 1) Banned by whom? Nobody has the authority to do that. Maybe in a single nation. I would agree because social media _social engineers_ valuable data out of people and they distort people's opinions. I would not agree because it'd be heavy censorship and a waste of technology
2) I'd be seriously laughing my ass off at all the people clawing away at their faces because Failborg, Twister, Pornblr or Poshagram disappeared.
Big Time Schadenfreudegasm.

| Does YouTube count as social media? Because I need this to live
| banning social media is not achievable, its like banning newspapers back in the 50's
people need it, so they will try to avoid the block by any means, going to the old unpopular sites, forums or just using vpns
| Wouldnt affect me at all
| I don't care, I don't use them.
| Delete everything that isn't a forum/image board. My friends will start texting me again.
| I'd celebrate, they're a cancer upon society, at least in the developed world. It's incline people to actually go out & communicate.
I only check Twitter on the go so I'd just get through a bit more news while commuting.
| Danger/u/ on the other hand I'd miss a little, but I think life will go on for me even if I don't hear the lastest about all you g/u/rls masturbating to traps.
| Social media is great actually. Idk why people hate on (Faggot!) it.

| How would you react if social medias were banned forever? Why would you agree? Why would you not agree?
What would you do if social medias were banned?
