Before social networking, people can present different personal
image among different group of people according to different
relations. In this way, people can play different roles in different
situations.
But after social networking, the stress of needing to manage their
reputation on social media, in some degree, force them to present
one personal image to everyone.
According to paper named “Teens, Social Media, and Privacy” by
Pew Research Center, Teens shows waning enthusiasm for
facebook. Users of sites other than Facebook express greater
enthusiasm for their choice.
