@TotyTottress I wonder if TikTok will eventually merge with Meta or be bought out? I dont use TikTok myself and only watch shorts on youtube, but I know that TikTok is the superior app when it comes to short-form. #BeachSMC

I can't see any of these other socials beating TikTok (TT). Majority of reels are reposted TTs and most YouTube Shorts are just clips of full-length YouTube videos. TT is original. I only see companies leaving TT for other medias if the others offer something new. #BeachSMC

outkick.com/influencer-sal… I forget as an American that influencing can be risky in other parts of the world. I can't imagine influencers being arrested for "racy" content. Its wonderful that she keeps posting regarding of consequences. #BeachSMC

english.elpais.com/science-tech/2… I wasn't convinced that much will change until I came across the paragraph about the petitions that followed the Brianna Murden case. I hope that mental health is enough of a factor for law suit follow through. #BeachSMC

@mandaplong Although I don't use Tiktok, for the millions that do I can see this being incredibly informative and inspiring! #BeachSMC

milwaukeeindependent.com/syndicated/des… As a millennial detoxing from social media, I find it easier to be without since I knew what childhood was like without internet and the apps. I am curious if the next generation has the same desire to cut out social media for mental health. #BeachSMC

I am curious how effective this will be since age verification questions on websites are easy to bypass. The concern is that kids will understand technology better than their parents, hopefully there will be instructions for parents so its easy. #BeachSMC abcnews.go.com/Politics/utah-…

@KristinaLedes I agree with your statement! There should be a law in place in each country regarding this. #BeachSMC

cnn.com/2023/03/16/hea… In my experience even when I have only wanted to follow local businesses for events, I'm constantly being bombarded with filtered photos and face tune on my explore page as well as the permanent ads. Instagram needs to be more customizable. #BeachSMC

foxnews.com/tech/is-facebo… Will disabling the microphone be enough? There needs to be simplicity when it comes to understanding the Terms and Conditions because I truly doubt disabling the microphone is going to keep from these devices knowing our every move. #BeachSMC

@MaddoxMonson3 When I was a teenager I used to compare myself to my classmates all of the time. Knowing how it effected my self esteem then, I'm glad social media was less accessible back in the day. There needs to be more conversations with teens when it comes to social media usage. #beachsmc

vogue.com/article/farmto… What we consume on social media can either have dire effects or inspire a happier emotional wellbeing. Humans are wired for outdoor living. When we scroll through photos of nature, it is as though we are connecting with our innate human self. #BeachSMC

entrepreneur.com/science-techno… Is trending sounds the equivalent to rewatching the same reruns over and over again? Although it is argued that sounds trending on social media can help videos become viral, I fear the effects it can have on our brain health. #beachsmc
