Social media has accelerated communication, expanded business
horizons and connected millions of individuals who otherwise would
never have met. But not everything social media touches turns to
gold--much of it is brass. Social networking sites are used by
scammers, criminals and sexual predators, and many people now
self-diagnose illness based on misinformation shared online.
Businesses make great claims about social media as a marketing tool
but few show any real returns. We communicate through social media
but are we really saying anything? Is social media doomed to be a
conduit of narcissism or can it become a channel for responsible
communication? Can social networking overcome its manifold
violations of privacy? Must we sacrifice our identities in order to
tweet or ""friend"" our associates? This book examines some of the
legal and ethical issues surrounding social media, its impact on
civil discourse and its role in suicides, murders and criminal
enterprise.
