Why You Hate Social Media

Social Media. It is something everyone seems to agree has some pretty negative consequences, along with some positives. But we rarely stop and ask what it is about this simple collection of words and images that seems to cause so much distress. And in The Transparency Society, Byung-Chul Han aims to answer this very thing. So, let’s learn how we killed privacy, and why you hate social media.

Aaliyah became a social media star – against her will

This is the story of how Aaliyah lost control over intimate images online. How someone shared her images and how they ended up being shared in thousands of places – and even sold.

And it is the story of how she took back control.

While image sharing is becoming a pressing issue, the importance of organizations like the SWGfL https://swgfl.org.uk/ is growing. They help victims of non-consensual intimate image sharing with helplines and online tools.

Understanding the potential for intimate image abuse is crucial in a digital age where sharing intimate images has become normalised. Over two-thirds (68.68%) of 16-24-year-olds know someone who has been a victim of intimate image abuse, highlighting the prevalence of this issue among younger generations.
