As a social media user, we hope you are informed about things like: how social media works, how they influence your emotions and mental state, how your data gets used or abused, strategies in how people use social media, and how harassment and spam bots operate.
Social media can significantly affect our emotions and mental state, often through mechanisms like social comparison or the dopamine-driven feedback loops associated with likes and shares. Awareness of how your data is collected, used, and potentially sold is important. Privacy settings and terms of service should be understood to protect your data from misuse.
