Barack Obama has warned about the use of social media. In a chat with the British prince, the former US President expressed concern about the Internet.
Barack Obama said in an interview to Prince Prince of Britain, "One of the dangers of the Internet is that people live in a completely different reality. They can be imprisoned in the information that matches their current thinking." According to the former US president many things in the world are quite elaborate and need different information along with time to understand them. This interview given to Harry is broadcast on the BBC's Radio 4.
But due to social media and internet, people get the same information that they like. Contradictive information can not be found. According to Obama, people are unable to find the other side or other dimensions, "things are not as simple as they are shown in chatrooms."
Obama himself is the big star of social media. They have millions of followers on Twitter and Facebook. She is one of the most reputable celebrities. But Obama is feeling that the social media is "spoiling a civil debate", "the question should be how should we make better use of this technique that different voices get place, diversity in ideas, this society is small Do not divide into pieces but rather to develop a common thinking. "
Harry is going to marry his girlfriend and American actress Megan Markle on May 19th. According to the British press, Obama will also be in the marriage. British government officials feel that becoming Obama's guests can increase the differences between the UK and the Trump.
