Details | The widespread acceptance of the value and culture of openness in cyberspace owing to the proliferation of social media paradoxically encourages clever people to utilise social media in a closed or controlled fashion to their own advantage. This would lead to social issues such as the spread of people's online behaviour to treat others as only a means, the distortion of digital identity of a wide range of people and human alienation. In this paper, the nature of these issues is examined and measures to address them are proposed. |
