In our opinion, social networks have changed a lot since 2014 as, for example, the time spent on social networks has become greater than the time spent watching television and moreover on the internet where today we find more information nowadays. Regarding social networks, they are used more for communication than a few years ago. In addition to the great use of social networks it has become very good for business as it allows the greatest success of the companies in question. The internet also became easier to access. As for security, it increased because we are alerted but on the other hand not so much, because there are more people accessing it soon and so there are will be more risks.

Despite the great influence of the internet in our lives today, real life still exists. But like everything ~~we have~~ there are some dangers that we must ~~take care of~~ be aware of
The unregulated use of social networks brings us a false sense of fulfillment and a false participation in the lives of others. We are changing, more and more, the aspects of a true life for empty allegories: tanned??? instead of compliments; indirect rather than frank conversation; emoticons instead of smiles.
We have to take some precautions such as:
-Don't be overexposed when using social networks. ...
-Build a good professional image. ...
-Have a network of quality contacts. ...
-Don't believe everything you read ...
-Check the validity of the information before sharing it. ...
-Use the privacy policies in your social profile.
We must never confuse the virtual with the real. The Internet is an important step forward to making our lives easier and to opening new doors of communication and integration ~~between~~ amongst creatures. However, it didn't come up for us to close the door to the real world. Live the real world intensely, you will realize that the virtual world will have another meaning in your life.

Social media are undeniably powerful and influential and have been this way since they were created, also likely to continue this in the future.
In 2014, many social networks already had many users, around 1.91 billion, but, with time, the numbers only seem to grow, being estimated that 3.08 billion people will use them in 2020.
Not only due to ~~the~~ these large numbers, the media remains a giant in the way trends spread and evolve. From fashion to food, weird and funny challenges or even beauty standards, your profile becomes your reflection and the number of followers defines whether you're likable or not. With all this ~~pression~~ pressure many give up but most aren't ready to face it. Also, the screen that separates the virtual from the real world is a double edged sword and the way it can protect one can also break another. Bullying has become an even more serious problem after the internet because it's easy to make fun of someone who can't defend herself or even see you and more activities like catfishing are bending the rules, not being fully illegal but not being very moral either.
In the end, social media are ruling the world, there isn't a better way to put it but do we even care that much?

Our love of social media seems to have grown and grown in the past decade, but recent studies show the tide may be turning for some platforms, with young people in particular ditching Facebook. One study claims that more than 11 million teenagers left Facebook between 2011 and 2014. It’s been argued that they are swapping public platforms such as Twitter and Instagram for more private messaging apps like WhatsApp and Snapchat.
We asked the Guardian’s younger readers whether they have quit social media and why, as well as what apps they are ditching. Almost all reported a greater sense of happiness after going offline. Here, we share some of their experiences.Our love of social media seems to have grown and grown in the past decade, but recent studies show the tide may be turning for some platforms, with young people in particular ditching Facebook.

Humankind had a great advance with the industrial revolution, we developed our ways to communicate which became faster and more efficient due to the request of quick communication. Since then social media has improved itself exponentially thanks to the crescent demand for information and recreation. Anyway, the evolution of social media has brought a tone of advantages alongside a few disadvantages.
Nowadays we can notice that social media has a lot of benefits for the community, it has become quite easy to learn via social media and we can choose anyone to learn from and enhance our knowledge about any field. Regardless of our location or economic possibilities, we can still educate ourselves.
On the one hand, there is the fact that those media platforms disponibilize enable an a incredibly efficient way to communicate without much effort, providing humanity the possibility of sharing information swiftly, allowing us to allocate resources rationally, molding a richer and more prosper society.
On the other hand, we have to take into account that there is are a few consequences, for example, the excess usage of social media can also have a negative impact in our health, in the long-term. The same happens for the addictive part of the social media, which is horrible mainly for teenagers who are the most affected by it.
Summarizing, it is intelligible obvious that social media can make a titanic contribution to mankind, facilitating the life of the ordinary man, granting accommodation and leisure. Still, there are some disadvantages, but it is also comprehensible that most of those can be undoubtedly avoided due to the fact that they are obstacles authored by humans themselves.

“How much the social media have changed from 2014 to now”

Since 2014 the social media have

~~Social media has~~ evolved at an alarming rate becoming more and more appealing to the general public. In direct proportion to the evolution of social media, the number of users has also quickly increased and in some platforms the number of users is higher than the population of various countries, but in our ~~mine~~ opinion this evolution may not be all good do due to the fact that the social media has also transformed itself becoming more addictive and in many cases creating a relation of dependence with social media.

Social media has evolved a lot since 2014 either due to the users' numbers per month or the way it affects our society.
This increase of usage of social media has some benefits (or maybe not) as with all these people connecting to social media, some people get famous very quickly, which is good but can lead to the person that got famous quitting the social media due to the ~~many~~ much pressure that they get from their followers ~~that~~ since most aren't ready to handle it.
Social media have evolved in a way that a lot of people meet through them and is they are used by many companies to recruit employees more and more every year as it is the best way to find the biggest amount of people on the same place and anyone interested in the subject will eventually be lead up to it by the social media.
Summarising social media have evolved in a very good way in the last few years and they are getting closer and closer to being used by everyone around the globe.

Social Media has changed from what it used to be in 2014. Back then it only was a way to interact with your friends and to share your opinion, but now it's the most common way to consume information and services.
Right now less than half of the users use social media to share details of their daily lives, and that number ~~of users~~ is ~~only~~ not going down.
Most plataforms of social media nowadays are centered around entertainement and watching videos, because that's what most users want them to be.
In conclusion, social medias have become a center for information and fulfilling videos for everyone to see while personal opinions are plummeting.

In our opinion, the social media ~~influences~~ have had a great influence on society. An example of social media influences is people´s relationships ~~are~~ being affected because social media influences the distance between them.

Nowadays social media has greater power than it did a few years ago. For example, the way to communicate is simpler and faster with other parts of the world. The social media are no longer just a way to keep in contact, but have become a source of information. On the other hand, the social media change the way of thinking and acting in society.

In conclusion, the social media has evolved in the last few years and will continue to evolve.

Social media have ~~has~~ been evolving since 2014 in terms of the facility to access them and the numbers of users.
Every day more and more people join social media and can get help from other people because of the huge amount of persons that are already in that reality but, erstwhile, it was harder because it was something unexplored so it was harder to understand.
Firstly we believe, nowadays, on the one hand, it contains a lot of benefits just like the amount of information we can get and absorb but on the other hand, it has a lot of fake news and information, something unusual in the beginning.
Secondly, it is very easy for many companies to search for employees or simple communication between teachers and students, so it is very useful in many areas.
Thirdly, the way we use it can have some consequences like the excess usage of social media can become an addiction.
To sum it up, we believe the evolution from 2014 to now gave us a lot of benefits and it is something that exists to help us but that depends on the way we use it.
