MALAYSIA is ranked 5th globally and 2nd in Asia for cyberbully incidences. Wow! What a category to have achieved top rankings. We, Malaysians, should be ashamed. What had caused this? The narcissistic behaviour (on line & social media) of Malaysians, particularly the young ones, is pathetic. This may have invited cyberbullies to capitalise on personal information of individuals. There are 28 million social media users in Malaysia. That is almost 93% of Malaysia's population (2024). I can't help to notice that Malaysians love to post everything that they do in life onto social media. From the proud moments of their children getting A's in exams all the way to what tea or coffee they drink. Why? I hope what had happened to Vivy Yusof of Fashion Valet becomes a learning point to all. Perhaps Malaysians should follow Vivy's approach and fasting from posting (on social media). A refreshed privacy can be achieved I reckon. War against social media should suffice to curb this new age addiction that is deadly in deteriorating all of our brains. Perhaps opium would rank lower than social media? God forbid, our brains may become useless at some point. No wonder humanity is showing interest in artificial intelligence. An eventual slavery for humanity I suspect.
