we? i am fairly sure most people know how to use social media without being consumed by it.

Not everyone that uses social media is making a mistake.

Data brokers and people with experience with helping those affected by identity theft and cyberstalking will tell you otherwise.

Last, never said anything like that. You’ve completely misinterpreted and put in assumptions to my claim that there are problems and difficulties that many, if not most, still face regarding specific implementations of social media. That is, not social media purely as a technology or a concept, but as specific use cases, I.e. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok (TikTok may be a stretch for social media in regards to traditional examples, but many still use it as such)
