Why We Need To Think Before We Click – Examples Scenarios

Here are some examples of why we need to think before we click.

WE NEED TO THINK – There are several reasons why we need to think before we click anything on the internet.

Because of the internet, there are virtually no limitations to what we could do. Furthermore, there’s an endless ocean of information and content that we can devour.

However, we need to realize that despite all the positives the internet brings, there are some serious negative impacts. As such, among the things that we need to look out for is our privacy.

Why We Need To Think Before We Click – Examples Scenarios

Thinking Before we click reminds us that internet safety is of the utmost importance. The saying is designed to protect teens from overexposing themselves online, especially on social media.

After uploading a picture online, if it’s public, then you’ve basically lost control over it. It could be downloaded, manipulated, and shared without context and consent.

Because of this, we need to think about what we upload on the web. But, thinking about what we download is also important.

For example, when we want to download something from the internet, we need to make sure that it is safe. There’s a lot of viruses and malware online.

Once it has infected your computer, hackers can potentially go through your system, steal personal information, or try to blackmail you.

That’s why it is empirical that we keep ourselves protected when using the internet. And, the best way of doing so is to think before we click.

Knowing Your Source: Think Before You Click

By: CMFR Staff

Posted on: October 4, 2016, 3:41 pm

Updated on: January 3, 2017, 9:18 am

THINK BEFORE you click. You may be sharing propaganda as truth—and thus, helping to dumb down people who access the Internet and social media.

The Internet, as a wide and open platform, provides space for a vast number of websites of dubious reliability, which are nevertheless, widely quoted  and  used as sources of information to spread propaganda or any social or political organization, including the government.  There are many who assume that whatever appears on the Net must be true. The “information” they provide is shared in different social media platforms, especially on Facebook, without verifying through other sources whether it is accurate or not.

Fake websites

Since it is easy to create a website with content management systems like WordPress and Blogger, the number of sites providing news and information has increased. Websites have sprouted with outright biases for political parties and politicians or for a clear and acknowledged advocacy for a cause. Sites that aggregate—or collect and repost– news from other news sources without checking its accuracy are also on the rise.

A huge number of websites present themselves as “news providers.”  But these do not always produce their  own content.  A majority of these draw their stories from trending and viral posts in the Internet. One example is the Aug. 26 post from President Rodrigo Duterte’s campaign spokesperson Peter Laviña of a photo of a  nine-year-old girl who was supposedly  raped and murdered somewhere in the Philippines.

Laviña said in his post that “We haven’t heard condemning (sic) this brutal act from human rightists, bishops and ‘presstitutes’ who are derailing the government’s war against drugs and crime.” The posts garnered 4,600 likes in Laviña’s Timeline alone; shared 5,000 times by other Facebook users and was reported by online news sites.

The photo was a hit in that sense– only to be debunked by Filipino journalists Froilan Gallardo and Inday Espina-Varona, who found a link that revealed that the incident happened in Brazil, not the Philippines. Clearly, the Laviña post was propaganda based on false information and  meant to provoke anger against human rights activists, the religious, and members of the press critical of the government’s war on drugs.

CMFR tried to track online trending news websites ( Trend Titan , News Info Learn , Public Trending , News Today , Politiko.com among others) that carried Laviña’s post and found that the news article has not been removed or edited despite its having been proven to be false. This raises questions about the credibility of these websites and the capacity of social media users who share them to identify what’s reliable and what’s not.

CMFR listed the following criteria which should warn Internet users about the reliability of their content:

No Identification

Fake news sites are designed like legitimate sources of news. They are presented to be legitimate news providers, employing trained and credentialed reporters, with articles that are vet-ed by editors, imposing a fact- and –context checking process.

One quick way of checking the legitimacy of the news is a website is the editorial information about the providers.  The “About Us,” “Contact Us” page of websites contains information about the site’s editorial team and staff, the physical address, telephone number, email address, its history, and other important information.  As in mainstream news, these websites list the names of persons who are accountable for the content it holds.

A news website should be accountable for what is posted on its page, and it starts with identifying the people behind it, as well as how they can be contacted so they can be asked to explain errors posted in their sites, among others. These are set apart from bloggers. They do not choose anonymity and like their counterparts in the mainstream are answerable to the public.

These should be differentiated from bloggers who write opinion pieces. Bloggers may choose to write under a “psyeudonym” for whatever reason. These do not pretend to provide news content about events and developments to inform people about current public affairs. They are expressing what they think. Their political opinions should be regarded as columns and readers can agree or disagree with them. In journalism however, commentary should be based on factual information.

Unverified Aggregation

Websites which present news from through aggregated content do so without checking whether these are true or not.  The practice exerts no effort to verify the sources or the process by which the report is produced. Content aggregators and curators scour the net for interesting content and share it with the Internet and social media community. Websites which aggregate and curate content nowadays do not only share content; they also create their own reports from other news sources. These often do not verify information prior to quoting a news article, hence the possibility that they’re spreading falsehood. Another practice is to pull out a factual report from mainstream news sources and to “spin it”—giving it an entirely new meaning.

Users of such websites should check whether the website shows any kind of information about who is doing the aggregation. If there is no information about the producers of the content, then what they offer should not be taken as editorially processed news.

Article Submission News Sites

These news websites invite the public to contribute content. Anyone is welcome to send articles, videos or photos to be posted on the website regardless of its being biased, and whether it’s a public relations piece or downright propaganda.  These do not satisfy any journalistic criteria and should be dismissed as a news source.

News Trending Sites

Generally, these sites pick up selectively from viral and trending posts in the internet. No other criteria  govern the selection. If the content has gained a significant amount of following, it is included, the only purpose for that use is to be hooked on to the “viral.”

Some of these sites provide an excuse from possible errors, warning users with a disclaimer that their content has not been verified and is likely to be unreliable.

Satirical Websites

Satire uses “humor, irony, exaggeration and ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity, or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.” It is applied in various literary forms, essays, editorials, drama, plays and film. Satire makes fun. It creates fictional characters and situations to render more sharply the folly and error involved in the subject of the satire, without reference to the actual public figures, actions or developments bein g satirized. While the work itself is fictional, like all great literature, good satire actually shows up and exposes ‘truth.”

Its more contemporary forms are the spoof or send-up. All done in the spirit of fun, satire succeeds as sharply critical of the subject.

Material from satirical websites, the content of which is often taken literally by those who access them, despite tag lines and disclaimers that proclaim that they are satirical, or are meant to spoof or make fun of ideas, events and individuals, are also often used and reposted as if the content is factually true.

Many Filipino social media users cannot distinguish truth from satire. A Rappler Move.PH article “ Why can’t many Filipinos tell truth from satire? ” by Rappler Social Media producer Marguerite de Leon points out that while other cultures have a ready understanding and appreciation for satire, this is not generally true in the Philippines. The article pointed out that “It’s possible, through a flawed educational system, that many Filipinos were not taught to think critically enough. And if you can’t think critically enough, grasping satire may be more difficult than it should be.”

CMFR also compiled a list of some of the satirical websites in the Philippines:

  •     https://adobochronicles.com/
  •     http://eritastimes.com/
  •     https://sowhatsnews.wordpress.com/
  •     http://mosquitopress.tumblr.com/
  •     https://agilanews.wordpress.com/

Think Before You Click

The Asia Digital Marketing Association (ADMA) noted that in 2015, the Philippines had the 2nd highest number of Internet users in Southeast Asia and was 6th in all of Asia with 44.2 million users. Ninety-four (94) percent of these numbers have social media accounts which they use to share news and information. This 94 percent can be influential in shaping the international image of the Philippines among people from other countries who access social media.  What’s as important, they also multiply possible errors among themselves and the rest of the Philippine Internet community by reposting and sharing flawed information.

It is important to read and be critical of material posted in certain sites before actually liking or sharing them on Facebook or Twitter. Sharing misinformation through social media can actually lead to the dumbing down of large numbers of people, and contribute to the further deterioration of democratic discourse.

Ang internet at social media, para ding tabak na may dalawang talim. Depende sa paggamit, maaari itong magdala ng ikabubuti mo at ng ibang tao, pero puwede rin itong maging mitsa ng kapahamakan.

Sa isang banda, nagbukas ito ng maraming oportunidad. Ang mga nauna sa Internet, gaya nina Jerry Yang at David Filo na mga nagtatag ng Yahoo! — isang iconic brand sa internet — ay nagkaroon ng pagkakataong makatulong sa mga netizen, makalikha ng maraming trabaho sa iba’t ibang bansa, at mapabuti ang sarili nilang kalagayan sa buhay.

Sa Pilipinas, may mga naunang blogger na nagkapagtayo na ng negosyo mula sa dati nilang libangan. Kumikita sila sa mga patalastas na ibinabayad ng mga kompanyang nais mapansin ng mga mambabasa. May mga tinatawag ding “influencers” na binabayaran para magbanggit ng mga produkto at serbisyo sa kanilang social media accounts.

Ang sikat na sikat ngayong kalahati ng AlDub — si Maine Mendoza na partner ng aktor na si Alden Richards — dahil sa viral na mga Dubsmash video ay naging malaking artista at endorser.

Sa kabilang banda, may ilan namang ‘di maganda ang naging karanasan dahil sa mga patuloy na nagbabagong teknolohiyang ito.

Ilang taon na ang nakalilipas, may isang babaeng ang pakikipagtalo sa estasyon ng MRT ay nakunan sa video at ini-upload sa internet kaya naging viral, at siya’y naging biktima ng cyberbullying. Isa pang babae ang na-bully matapos magpost ng litrato ng lalaking ‘di raw nagpaupo sa kaniya sa MRT. May isang binata namang nasira ang reputasyon matapos may magpakalat ng tsismis na siya’y may nakahahawang sakit.

Ang iba, nasasangkot sa eskandalo matapos kumalat ang kanilang private videos. Mayroon ding nakunan ng pera o mahahalagang impormasyon dahil nabiktima ng phishing o ibang pang panloloko sa internet. May mga mamamayan ding na-scam ng mga politikong fake news ang bala sa kampanya.

Dahil dito, kailangan nating maging maalam sa kalakaran sa internet at social media. Kapag online, sana’y maging mabuti at matulungin tayo sa iba, tama ang impormasyong ibinahagi, at pinag-iingatan ang ating kaligtasan. Wika nga ng GMA News, “Think before you click!”

THINK BEFORE YOU CLICK: A SOCIAL MEDIA AWARENESS ADVISORY

think before you click essay filipino

  ~~ Mari Denise L. Benito

Millions upon millions of people worldwide flock to social networking sites to read and to speak their minds. It is the power of these astounding numbers that makes, without doubt, the internet as the most powerful and influencing media today. But as internet users, do we know how much we must take responsibility for what we write or say or put in the web? Yes, it is known that we have freedom in the internet. But then again, have we asked ourselves to be more mindful of what we post or to think before we hit the enter key?

     “THINK BEFORE YOU CLICK” is the strong message of an internet safety campaign designed to protect teenagers from overexposing themselves on social networking sites.

 The International Computer Science Institute (ICSI) scientist Gerald Friedland, studies cyber casing, the use of online information to mount attacks in the real world, and, and recommends users consider the following before posting anything online. Here are the questions that you can ask yourself to consider before posting online on social media:

  • Who can see/read this post?
  • Public posts can be seen by anybody in the world, including your boss, governments, and even criminals. So think: Is the post appropriate for any audience?
  • Will my post offend people, and am I okay with the potential results of offending people? If the information in this post is shared with people I didn’t anticipate sharing it with, will that cause any problems?
  • Is there hidden data (such as geographical tags in photos/video, for example) included in my post? Is it okay to share that information?
  • Note: if you aren’t sure whether your images/video contains hidden data such as geographical tags, it’s possible you’ve been sharing location and other personal information unintentionally.
  • Knowing that this information will still exist online decades in the future, do I really want to share it?
  • Are you sharing information about somebody else?
  • Think about it: How would you feel if somebody shared this information about you? Consider asking for permission after discussing 1-4.

     Nowadays, teens approach privacy in a substantially different manner than adults. In most cases, adults will think first and then asked, post and share later. However, teens will take significant risks first, suffer the consequences and then seek assistance from adults and professionals. Evidently, teens are at greater risks because they use social media as a tool to convey acceptance and express themselves, which could include sharing their personal information, such as phone numbers, addresses and photographs. Once they have determined the ramifications of their actions, teens will seek help from others online, eliminate this information or go offline entirely. Here are the most basic risks posed by social media and social networking:

  • Password sloth is a simple and prevalent mistake by users of social networking sites. Password sloth refers to using the same password on all sites—if that password is discovered via a hack or accidental leak on one site, it provides hackers a way into all the other sites. In a worst case scenario, it might mean a Twitter password hack gives someone the key to your online banking account.
  • Plain old TMI—too much information . It’s a great idea to let your neighbours know you’re headed out on vacation so they can keep an eye on your house or apartment. It’s not a great idea to post those vacation plans on public Internet sites. It’s also not a great idea to freely reveal lots of personal details and your birthday, your town of birth, your family tree—as that information can be used for identity theft.
  • Humiliating or Publicly Shaming Others . Sadly, this is not just a teen problem, it’s an all of us problem. It’s actually all of us with our camera phones and hunger for attention. Every time someone does something embarrassing or lacking in integrity, someone records it and posts it without a thought. A simple mistake or lapse in moral judgment quickly becomes a ruined life.
  • Viral Video Attempts . Many want to be the next Internet sensation. Unfortunately, in order to do that, you have to do something extreme. Too often that results in them doing things that are physically dangerous or humiliating. Not only can they sustain serious injury or death doing them, but they are not prepared for the consequences when these videos are uploaded.

     The internet and social media has indeed become such a powerful tool. But don’t forget that we are the ones who operate it. We might have freedom to do whatever we wish on the internet, but we must limit our actions because if we won’t be mindful enough, we can destroy lives. We have the power to make the decision. Before clicking that enter key, THINK and RETHINK. Help build a healthier, more loving and constructive online world.

Pause And Ponder: The Power Of ‘Think Before You Click’ Essay

' src=

In today’s digital age, where a click holds the power to shape our perception of the world, it has become more important than ever to think before we click. The “think before you click essay” is an insightful piece that delves into the significance of our online actions and the consequences they can have. So, what does it mean to think before you click? Simply put, it is about being mindful of the information we consume and share, questioning its authenticity, and considering the potential impact it may have. Join me as we explore this timely topic and learn how we can navigate the virtual realm with responsibility and awareness.

Think Before You Click Essay

The importance of critical thinking in the digital age.

In today’s digital age, where information is just a click away, it is more important than ever to think before you click. The vast amount of information available online can be overwhelming, and not all of it is accurate or reliable. It is crucial to develop critical thinking skills to navigate the digital landscape effectively. This essay will explore the importance of critical thinking and provide practical tips on how to be a discerning online consumer.

The Impact of Fake News and Misinformation

One of the biggest challenges in the digital world is the proliferation of fake news and misinformation. With the click of a button, false information can spread like wildfire, leading to confusion, polarization, and even harm. It is essential to be aware of the impact that fake news can have on society and to cultivate a healthy skepticism when consuming information online.

Recognizing Fake News

Being able to recognize fake news is an essential skill in the digital age. Here are some key signs to look out for:

  • Unreliable sources: Check the credibility of the source before trusting the information. Be wary of websites with no established reputation or dubious agendas.
  • Extreme bias: Fake news often contains a strong bias, with sensationalized headlines and exaggerated claims.
  • Lack of verification: Fake news articles often lack proper verification or supporting evidence. Look for multiple credible sources that corroborate the information.
  • Emotional appeal: Fake news often aims to provoke an emotional response. Be cautious of articles that seem designed to evoke anger or outrage.

Fact-Checking and Verifying Information

To avoid falling victim to fake news, it is important to fact-check and verify information before accepting it as true. Here are some strategies to help you become a more discerning consumer of information:

  • Verify the source: Look for reputable sources that have a history of accurate reporting. Established news organizations and peer-reviewed journals are generally more reliable than personal blogs or social media posts.
  • Check for corroboration: If a piece of information seems dubious, try to find multiple sources that confirm or refute it. Cross-referencing information from different sources can help you get a more accurate picture.
  • Consult experts: If you come across complex or specialized information, seek out experts in the field to provide insights and context. Their expertise can help you make more informed judgments.
  • Use fact-checking tools: There are several fact-checking websites and tools available that can help you verify the accuracy of information. Utilize these resources to double-check questionable claims.

Protecting Personal Information and Online Privacy

In addition to being mindful of fake news and misinformation, it is crucial to protect your personal information and online privacy. The digital landscape presents various risks, such as identity theft, cyberbullying, and online scams. By being cautious about the information you share and the websites you engage with, you can better safeguard yourself against these threats.

Safe Online Practices

To protect your personal information and online privacy, follow these best practices:

  • Use strong, unique passwords: Create strong and unique passwords for each online account you have. Avoid using the same password across multiple platforms to minimize the risk of unauthorized access.
  • Enable two-factor authentication: Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification, such as a code sent to your mobile device, in addition to your password.
  • Be cautious with personal information: Avoid sharing sensitive personal information, such as your full address or social security number, on public platforms or with untrusted sources.
  • Use secure websites: Look for the padlock icon in the browser’s address bar, indicating that the website has an SSL certificate and uses encryption to protect data transmitted between your device and the server.
  • Regularly update software and antivirus programs: Keep your operating system, web browser, and antivirus software up to date to benefit from the latest security patches and protection against malware.

Critical Evaluation of Online Sources

In addition to protecting personal information, it is essential to critically evaluate online sources to ensure their reliability and credibility. Here are some factors to consider when assessing the trustworthiness of a website or source:

  • Author expertise: Investigate the author’s credentials and expertise in the subject matter. Look for evidence of reputable affiliations or relevant experience.
  • Publication date: Check the publication date of the article or information. Outdated information may no longer be accurate or relevant.
  • Editorial standards: Determine whether the website or source has clear editorial standards and a transparent process for fact-checking and verifying information.
  • Domain authority: Consider the domain authority of the website. Websites with higher domain authority are generally more trustworthy.
  • Reviews and feedback: Look for user reviews or feedback on the website or source. Consider the reputation and credibility of the platform.

In conclusion, in the age of information overload, it is essential to develop critical thinking skills and exercise caution when consuming information online. The ability to recognize fake news, verify information, and protect personal information is crucial for maintaining a well-informed and safe digital presence. By thinking before you click, you can navigate the digital landscape with greater confidence and make informed decisions based on reliable information.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the potential consequences of clicking on links without thinking.

Clicking on links without thinking can expose you to various risks. You might encounter phishing attempts, where cybercriminals try to steal your personal information or login credentials. Additionally, you may unknowingly download malware that can damage your device or compromise your privacy.

How can I determine if a link is safe to click?

Before clicking on a link, always examine it closely. Check the URL to ensure it matches the website or source you expect. Be cautious of shortened URLs or suspicious domain names. Hover over the link (without clicking) to preview the destination URL, and look out for any indicators of suspicious or unfamiliar websites.

What steps should I take to protect myself from malicious links?

To protect yourself from malicious links, exercise caution and follow these steps: 1. Think twice before clicking on any link, especially in emails or messages from unknown senders. 2.

Double-check the email or message for any signs of phishing attempts, such as grammatical errors or urgent requests for personal information. 4. Install and keep your antivirus software up to date to detect and block potential threats.

How can I identify a phishing email?

Phishing emails often contain red flags that can help you identify them. Look for: 1. Generic greetings instead of personalized ones. 2. Spelling or grammar mistakes. 3. Requests for personal information or login credentials. 4. Urgent or threatening language. 5. Suspicious email addresses or domains.

What actions should I take if I accidentally click on a suspicious link?

If you accidentally click on a suspicious link, there are a few steps you should take: 1. Close the website or pop-up window immediately. 2. Run a scan with your antivirus software to check for any malware. 3. Change your passwords for any accounts you accessed after clicking the link. 4. Monitor your accounts and financial statements for any unusual activity. 5. Consider reporting the incident to the appropriate authorities or your IT department if you are at work.

Final Thoughts

In conclusion, the “think before you click” essay emphasizes the importance of exercising caution and critical thinking while engaging with online content. With the ever-increasing presence of misinformation and clickbait, it is crucial for individuals to be discerning and verify the accuracy and credibility of information before sharing or acting upon it. By being mindful of the potential consequences of our actions online, we can contribute to a more informed and responsible digital community. So, remember to pause, evaluate, and think before you click, ensuring that you do your part in combating the spread of misinformation and promoting a more reliable online environment.
