Week 10: Digital Citizenship and Conflict: Social Media Governance

The ubiquitous nature of social media platforms has defined and will continue to define the contemporary world. Upcoming projections indicate rapid expansion in emerging countries, bringing the total number of social media users to around 58.4% of the global population (Statista, 2022). According to the eSafety Commissioner of the New South Wales Department of Education, "a good digital citizen" is someone who is able to make beneficial use of digital technology for social participation, communication, content creation, and consumption.

There are a lot of worries about the future of social media regulation, despite the fact that these platforms have helped people interact and share material, such as the proliferation of fake news, hate speech, and internet monitoring. Violent online conflicts highlight the power dynamics at play in the concept of digital citizenship. A perceived chasm has opened up between academic study and real-world issues faced by people because non-experts' perspectives are sorely lacking in discussions of information systems in the literature. People should talk about cyberbullying and other forms of online abuse on platforms where they do not know the perpetrators well.

The formation of "bad habits" might occur, however, when users constantly check their social media alerts out of FOMO and participate in negative self-comparisons (Walther et al., 2011). The correlation between social media usage and mental health is complex. Not only was social media usage substantially related to depression, but those suffering from depression were also more likely to use social media (Lin et al., 2016). Lowry et al. (2016) and Ransbotham et al. (2016) found that new digital vulnerabilities, such as cyber mobs and "sock puppet" accounts, are a major contributor to this negativity. These accounts spread objectionable speech and engage in social shaming. Teens may develop PTSD symptoms after being exposed to risky information on social media, such as cyberbullying, sexual solicitations, and explicit material (McHugh et al., 2018). Furthermore, Johnson (2018) reveals that individuals may become unable to differentiate between fair and unfair online behaviour due to "mob rules'' established by online organisations.

By outlining standards for appropriate conduct and content, social media governance helps platforms encourage responsible participation from its users. The resolution of these disputes and the preservation of digital citizenship values need for robust frameworks for social media administration. Since these forms of government must address many, and at times competing, interests, they are inherently complex. Digital communities that promote healthy relationships based on mutual regard, understanding, and accountability may be created when all parties involved pull together. Furthermore, Johnson (2018) reveals that individuals may become unable to differentiate between fair and unfair online behaviour due to "mob rules" established by online organisations.
