| Descripción: | The use of the Internet and digital social networks have offered a window of expression, which is increasingly used as a place where injustices, illegalities or violations of citizens’ rights are made known. These citizens would have difficulty finding other spaces with the same reach in terms of the immediate transmission of the message; how viral the content can become; the breadth of audiences that can be reached; and the possibility of generating social and political impact to solve problems. However, it is also increasingly common that with the use, but particularly the abuse of these digital spaces that they are becoming places of defamation, ridicule and unjustified lynching. This demonstrates the considerable impact the use of digital technologies can have on people’s lives, including beyond the digital realm. The solution to these problems would be through an ethical use of these technologies, as well as critical thinking about the information that is consulted in them. |
