• Resumen

  • This article aims to analyse the impact of social networks on the individual, by the main exponent Facebook as well as a socio-cultural stereotype, but also the addiction to this source of socialization. How much it influences our life, how toxic viral information, mostly unverifiable can become, maybe due to the fact that many internet users don’t even question if they ought to do it. Does Facebook influence your life? Does it transform us from people living in society in lonely people addicted to a keyboard that connects us to a virtual world? Are we ready to use the Internet as a simple communication tool or have we become prisoners to an alienated way of living from a human and social point of view?
