And what about X (formerly Twitter)?
Since Musk took over, studies show X now has a higher concentration of misinformation than Facebook, just lower total volume due to a smaller user base.
Facebook still "wins" for overall harm, but TikTok is the most concerning rising threat.
Moderation matters. Algorithms amplify. And platform design isn't neutral.

Your clicks, likes, location, interests, all of it can be tracked, analyzed, and even sold for ads. That’s how many “free” apps really make money.
So next time you download one, ask: what am I paying with?
If it’s free… you’re the product.
Stay aware.

10th February is Safer Internet Day!
The online world is amazing – memes, learning, creativity, connections. But it also has fake news, scams, hate, and privacy risks. Staying safe online isn’t boring – it’s powerful.
Think before you share.
Check before you trust.
Protect your data.
Be kind in your comments.
Call out harm when you see it.A safer internet doesn’t happen by chance – it happens by choices. And every click counts.
