The Impact of Social Media on Immigration Misinformation

Social media, particularly platforms like Facebook and TikTok, have played a significant role in disseminating information about immigration to potential migrants. Migrants have reported learning about the situation in the US and its welcoming stance through these platforms. They have also utilized social media to access various services such as renting Uber rides, obtaining fraudulent IDs, and engaging in other illicit activities. This rapid sharing of information through social media has fueled the exploitation of loopholes in the immigration system, contributing to a surge in migration trends.
