The Ethical Imperative of Social Media in a Digital Age

by Lerato Mokena
December 1, 2025

In today’s digital world, sharing on social media comes with big responsibilities. It’s important to respect people’s privacy, especially children, and to think about how posts might affect others. A recent incident at a school showed just how fast rumors can spread, causing worry and panic. While social media can connect people and promote good causes, like sharing sports gear with kids in need, we must be careful about what we share. By being thoughtful and respectful, we can make social media a better place for everyone.

Exploring the Digital World: The Power of Clicks and Shares

by Liam Fortuin
December 13, 2023

Alderman JP Smith of Cape Town is advocating for responsible digital behaviour when disclosing incidents to aid the legal process. Sharing suspect images online can weaken the case against the suspect and jeopardize the legal process. Smith’s call for action is not a plea for silence, but for prudent judgement, and refraining from sharing suspect images can help ensure justice is effectively and fairly administered. In this digital era, the power of a click must be exercised judiciously to maintain a fair and equitable society, both online and offline.
