The University of Maine states that 4.8 Billion people all across the world who use social media. That is 68.57% of people in the world. Social media is built to keep people coming back to the app. As a result of this, several people find themselves addicted to their phones. As a result it’s beneficial to find out how many people are addicted to social media and their phones while also figuring out why people keep using social media despite it’s proven mental health impacts. Everyone always says how bad social media is for people and yet no one ever wants to quit using social media. I’m going to survey people of all age groups to see why they keep using social media, what benefits people get out of social media, and why they refuse to leave social media. I’d like to give a report based on the age group and the way they use social media.
