Nowadays, more people are choosing to socialize online rather than face to face. Is this a positive or negative development? v.4

An increasing number of people meet and talk to their friends online instead of in person. In my opinion, this is a negative development which can lead to isolation, potentially harmful situations and also problems later on in life. One serious problem that can arise from people socializing online is that it can lead to isolation. Before the internet, people would frequently go out to meet friends, for example in cafes, bars or restaurants, whereas now people prefer to stay at home alone, chatting online. As a result, people are starting to spend the majority of their time alone at home in their room without meeting others. Another issue is that meeting people online can be risky. In other words, people can assume fake identities online as well as hide their true characteristics. This is particularly concerning for teenagers who are impressionable and can easily be led into dangerous situations. In conclusion, although it has become more popular for people to socialize through the internet, it has brought about too many problems for this to be considered a positive trend.
