LONDON - Social media has become an idol for Internet users seeking the latest world news. Facebook and Twitter are called partially responsible for the riots that occurred in England recently. But it is a mistake to blame the tool of communication as the responsible party in a social unrest.
As quoted from the Telegraph, is not very unreasonable that the representation of Twitter, Facebook and Blackberry have menghapa the British government and police to talk about the riots. By scapegoating the same method of communicating to ignore the social problems that exist in society.
It is quite inversely, since the beginning of this year's Twitter and Facebook had called the media play a role behind the revolution that occurred Egypt and some Arab countries diktatoriat other. Social networking sites that touted role in the overthrow regimes authoritarian government.
By combining several patterns, the researchers of social media on the events that occur even early in the Arab region are calling it 'the first revolution' in the world.
Actually, Twitter and Facebook is not the trigger of the revolution, they are simply a means of communication medium that connects everyone. Very careful when British police dragged the parties to the case of social networking unrest London. Very careful not true for people who think that social media internet is also a tool to overthrow regimes in the Arab region.
After these cases, whether the users of social networking can be received if the media they use is supervised by the authorities, because they can lead to violence as happened in the Arab world and London?
