Facebook brings to the society many services that benefit them. The main audience of facebook is students of high schools and colleges. But there are also some cases where also business may benefit for this social networking website. Students are allowed students to share pictures and communicate with old friends and also making new friend in the process. Another good use of Facebook is the fact that it may help student learn from other people who are more experience
The major disadvantage that Facebook face is the concerns over privacy. The users of Facebook are surrounded by illusions of the fact that Facebook is indeed a private site. But in fact Facebook is a website that has little private protection of the member’s personal information and pictures. Facebook just opened a function that allows non-Facebook users to search different people’s account leaving their personal information exposed to the public.
Issues involving security become more apparent in Facebook. It is crystal clear that bullies are really taking advantage of this service to harass other members. Some individuals may post different pictures insulting different members which decrease stability in the social network. The result of this is the quitting of some members. This quitting also raises concerns of security and stability in Facebook.
It is very important for a member in face book to feel secured as he socializes with his friend without any interference with issues involving privacy and security. Solutions to these problems are a must to achieve the maximum comfort for their users. However it depends on the user. In some cases different users may have different views on the problem.
