The necessary to build social media networks and digital identities.

With the development of economic and social globalization, frequent use of the Internet as a social tool has become inevitable in People’s Daily work, life and study. Along with the security issue of Internet privacy leakage, I believe that when we can establish a digital identity on social media network, the positive influence brought to us by the public networking is far more than its negative influence.

It is undeniable that how to ensure that every digital identity individual’s personal information on the Internet is not leaked is a long-term concern and has not been completely solved. “I never asked my future grandchildren for permission to offer their data to a scientific database. I made a decision about the privacy of my data that affects numerous people who are implicated but who have no say. And, in doing so, I learned information about them that they may not wish to know, let alone have me know. “(Danah) Information about other people’s records or our own has been leaked in places we haven’t noticed. This is the risk and harm brought by the public communication characteristics of social media while bringing us convenience.

On the other hand, the creation of digital identities and the widespread use of social media networks has been a huge boon. For example, during the two-year COVID-19 pandemic, normal offline learning and daily life were suspended to stop the spread of the disease, while online learning and working have provided a new way for all students, teachers and workers.

So overall, I think set up their own digital identity on social media network and the positive influence and public interaction is far outweigh the risks, while in the social media successfully build their own digital identity, because some areas or other people can’t immediately face to face communication can influence through this digital identity quick stereo understanding to each other’s career, Nicknames, even birthdays and hobbies, make it easier for people to find jobs remotely or study online.
