Along with the development of science and technology, human life is growing dynamically, especially in the field of information and communication. The Cyber Era has produced internet technology and brought a new phenomenon in the area of mass media which also creates new media that is commonly called social media or social networking. Social media is like a two-edged knife. If used wisely, selectively and responsibly, various social networking sites can be useful, but if used irresponsibly, social media can have unfavorable consequences, and even cause legal problems.
