It states that social media is a form… 250 words, provide citations.It states that social media is a form of control – because it limits the role of choice — it influences how people behave — so is it possible that the more social media a person consumes– the less free that person is? — For example, if Joe and Jody have Facebook and Instagram accounts — and act in certain ways to “get likes” — are they free — or is the “getting likes” and the result of these “likes” likely to increase their behavior — to the point of the absurd– they have to do more and more — then take — Billy — he does not know much in the world – but stumbled into some fringe spaces on the web, now he starts to repeat what he hears– that the earth is flat and there is a large conspiracy of a new alien order.  His use of social media provides a “sounding board” for him to echo his ideas with others — is he free or under the control of what he likes to hear? Based on freedom ideas and Skinner or Sartre– 1) Define freedom– Skinner/Sartre. 2) Evaluate Joe and Jody – are they free or not and why or why not? 3) Discuss how you would approach Billy with “facts” and justify why he is not free.  Arts & Humanities Philosophy HUM 1020 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
