NOTE

Social Media is Still In Its Early Stage

The speaker reflects on the initial criticism of social media, citing that it was originally regarded as useless and a platform for narcissism. However, the turning point came when a political leader identified Twitter as a major threat. The speaker emphasizes that the world is still in the early stages of social media's impact, considering that the widespread use of the internet and social networks is relatively new. Drawing parallels to the printing press, the speaker suggests that it took 200 years for the consequences of the printing press to fully play out, indicating that the effects of social media are still in their infancy.
