people that arent taught how to behave well, by their family or retrospective friends, or family members
it depends on what the relationships of the people are like
They're shit as hell, and way to prejudice to eachother it makes northern Ireland a terrible place to live
People who have nothing better to do, bored, or people who find it easier to hurt others instead of reflecting on their own hurt but it's primarily people who get off on harassing and causing distress to other. Because it's easier to get away with it if it's online because they don't think people will go through with looking for them
Leaking nudes, stalking, mass harassing of a person, threats, hate crimes
It's terrible, and shockingly a scary place i hate to come across anyone i know because im scared ill be harassed or made fun off even if it doesn't happen the worry is still always there
Side-effects from the Troubles do still exist with some communites around isolating themselves.
People who lack real morals as they don't see people online as actual people and as such, are more likely to do things they wouldn't morally do in real life such as posting.. unsafe content.
Blackmail and harrassment is more likely to happen on any social media apps as people feel disconnected from their identity and do what they truely want or speak their own opinion. This is however more likely on Twitter or Reddit as those communities have a more racial background.
I think it's only going to get worse as people are furious about all of the crime people that have moved here from other countries have done. Also with most of those crimes being men harassing young girls it can make me myself feel a lot more scared than i used to being out by myself, for example even walking home i feel the need to constantly look over my shoulder even in broad daylight.
young children starting high school as this is when most of them are i reduced to it
on instagram u are able to keep ur account private whereas on snapchat u aren't
they shouldn't have it before they are 13 atleast
Personally I have experienced more hatred and bitterness from the loyalist side of the community, I think its embarrassing that we live in a country where protestants and catholics separate from each other. I wish we could leave it in the past. - I also think that foreign nationals coming into the country need to contribute to society and assimilate into our culture. - When I have to walk past a group of Bulgarians Pakistanis or whatever it is in the street I feel intimidated and also like I am being replaced in my own country. I feel like the foreigner.
To put it bluntly; - Because you can't punch somebody through a screen
I feel photos and videos are more likely to be shared without consent on snapchat compared to instagram.
Because its all online and nobody can see who you really are and cant really physically report you for anything so you are able to do more horrible things online to others without getting caught physically and having to face the consequences of your actions.
On tiktok and youtube people are more judgenmental and harras people sometimes for nothing or little not deep things i dont know why it happens maybe as its a bigger platforms more people are on it so some people have more victims online to harras
Some of the stuff posted on social media isnt true so especially if your a young person and more vunerable to this information then adults make sure to rememeber that and keep safe on the internet at all times.
Snapchat because after a certain amount of time for example, 10 seconds, the picture you send disappears forever so people are most likely to send nudity on Snapchat, Snapchat also tells you if someone saves/screenshots your pictures.
I think that people like to deflect their own insecurities online. For example, I see many lonely people targeting big friend groups of people.
Stalking because it is unlikely to spot, data leaks because many give their information up online to buy things etc, scams because it is harder to catch the individual because they won't have to show their face.
I don't like how there are distinct areas in Northern Ireland that are either Protestant dominant or Catholic dominant whereby those people of those communities feel the need to raise flags and paint/ spray paint hateful or offensive things towards each other. It feels like these people are claiming their territory on this part of the island. As I am neither a member of the Catholic nor Protestant community I feel I cannot wear certain tops e.g. a rangers football top, a celtic football top, a GAA top. This is due to the fact that if I wear one of these items, a member of the other community will dislike it or take offence. Another issue is that quite often I will be asked what religion I am and my answer will dictate how that person views me. I have actually lost friends over this silly debate about 'superior religions' as people my age do not view each other as equal. Personally, I can see how parents of teens my age have passed on their prejudice and this has helped to keep the divide between groups wide. Because of the ongoing tensions particularly between these two religious groups, we see a large divide in communities and it's only going to get worse. I myself don't understand why people are still behaving like this and would much rather that we embrace the country we are all a part of and the community we can create.
Rough boys who think no one will see what they do, usually around 15-18 years old. They think it's okay to send nudes to young girls, all of my friends including myself have encountered this at least twice online. Just in general though, people who think they will get away with that behaviour and don't usually behave or follow rules
Snapchat is a horrid place for males to add random girls and harass them. It's so easy for them to create new accounts repeatedly and change their identity so no one will know it's them.
I wish we didn't have phones so everyone would be safe from social media and this new void of harassment. I believe social media does more harm than good.
They can hide behind the screen and avoid some of the consequences of doing it in real life
Whatsapp/Snapchat - bullying - Instagram - blackmail and scamming -
It can be distracting to other aspects of life ie school, relationships, sport, hobbies, etc., and can ruin social skills and attention spans
I belive that there isn't much of a problem anymore
I feel on snapchat its more likely to happen as it will more likely be to someone you both know
I feel more of the bullyinh done on social media are done on tik tok as people are uploading videos of themselves
Different religion groups could more likely spread hate for example, commenting hatred about their religion or background
Snapchat as its the most used app by younger people
Those who are not careful online for example with public accounts as there are more accessible
depends where you live and religious prejudice is passed down not born with
it depends on how aware they are off their action on social medial like they are in too muuch of a comfort zone
depends on type of app like snapchat is more as its for texting
its over exaderated the dangers by adulds as they only base it on the 1 percent of the bad cases as iv only know of 2 or 3 cases when iv met hundreds of people online from he real morld
some people think it's funny and don't know the impact it can have on someone
it is more likely to happen on Snapchat because that is the social media app that young people use
People who think they are superior to other because of race or gender etc, or creeps
I think it's more likely that strangers will add you on snapchat or do weird things like sending inappropriate pictures and i don't really know why it's snapchat in particular but it seems to happen there the most.
I think social media is addictive, even for me, social media takes up most of my screentime. I don't participate in bad behaviours online because i know what to stay away from, however some people don't and not to discriminate but it's mostly teenage boys that ask for images off of people online or use threats or send explicit images themselves. i think social media has gotten dangerous. it's an easy way for people to fall victim to things
I feel there is still a divide due to religion but it's definitely not as strong as it was in the past
People who are unfamiliar with social media and unaware of these occurrences
I believe there is a Prejudice for LGBTQ+
teenage boys, they feel as if its untraceable
snapchat is extremely popular and makes sharing much easier
Snapchat because everyone has it and you can make group chats
Older men because they think that they can take advantage of young girls and boys
Harassment is happens a lot on Snapchat I feel like
not sure it's good tho keeps people entertained and can give education ideas
People who have not had the proper education on these topics
Sharing of images on snapchat as younger teenagers think it is OK to share inappropriate images of others without their consent as they think it is funny -
people have more confidence on social media cuz they can hide behind the screen
unsolicited pictures, in snapchat as it deletes immediately
I think that the closer we get to a united ireland the loyalist community will get more volient
I think bullying and harassment are the most likely to happen because it is easy to do online, unlike in person -
young people who don't know who they are talking to online but still talk to them -
people sharing photos of themselves to people they think they know but that person is just pretending to be a person they know and then use their photo for blackmailing
People that do not know the dangers of others that can happen on social media.
Inappropriate pictures are more likely to be sent on Snapchat as the snaps disappear after they are opened, unless they are saved or screen shotted.
People posting bizarre videos of graphic events on Twitter/X because hardly anything gets taken down on there if you aren't famois, almost the same with every other social media
Young people are becoming overly addicted to the 'internet' way of things and implanting things they see on the net into their lives, even when it brings no benefit
I think it is very generational and the children actually don't care about others religion and it doesn't make a difference anymore and the ones who do want to live I theirparents time
it can be hurtful to people eg when pictures are  shared that the person who is in the picture doesn't was it to be shared
young impressionable people who haven't been properly informed of the risks of social media are likely to be manipulated into engaging in such behaviour
snapchat because the videos, photos and chats disappear after viewing and it is easy to find new people to add
it is not regulated enough and some young people are receiving phones too early in my opinion
People who are manipulative and objectify women
Snapchat because it it the least public and things can disappear quickly
i think it's all stupid we should all get along
people who are mostly struggling so the will take it out on other people
becuase it's behind the screen and people can't get caught if they use a fake account
People who have they themselves never experienced it as they don't understand how it feels. Also young impressionable people as they are easily influenced by others online to for prejudice opinions.
Despite the fact that social media has some benefits it exposes people to inappropriate content at far too young of an age and is a breeding ground for hate and bullying.
On things like TikTok you might not be known as well and on Some apps comments can be made anonymously
People with that attitude towards others
No I think all the informations were said about my thoughts on social media.
People who would think it's cool to do it  - People who do it cause it makes them feel good about themselves - Or people who have had it done to them
On a platform like snapchat it would be harder to share someone's info as snapchat has a feature were it gives the person a notification if their chat or profile has been screen shot/recorded whilst other platforms like Insta don't have that.
It's like many other things, it's great in moderation but horrible in exessesation
people in this country engage in this behavior all the time because they think its fun
Asking for inappropriate photos on Snapchat
I think that it is ruining young peoples lives slowly and this should be taken more into consideration. - Restrictions or bans should be made in NI for certain social medias.
people need to get over the whole catholics v protestants thing. religion is NOT that deep and it's literally the same god? same thing with any minority group, it's not that deep. nobody is hurting you by being a POC, LGBT+ or religious/not religious. it makes no sense to me
cowardly bullies who want to project their issues onto other people but don't have the gut to do it in person. and pedophiles or pervs, that's also a big one
any social media app without the right protections can become dangerous to an individual, especially if they are mentally weak or a minor. apps like snapchat and whatsapp make it easy for people to see your location and message you about anything they want if you're not careful, whereas apps like insta or tiktok could expose you to uncensored gore or sexually explicit images. the dark sides of twitter and tumblr is literally just the seven rings of hell incarnate
i think that until the age of at least 16, social media use should be either not allowed or restricted so that children don't have to mature faster than they're supposed to (speaking from experience) and if a child isn't a first year in secondary school, they shouldn't really have a phone or device and until maybe 13(?) shouldn't have social media, only contact with parents/friends and games. i think something like this would drastically improve the addictive tendencies and severe mental health issues present in my generation (Z) and the ones to come
sexual abuse bullying black mail and threatening
people with a lower status in the real world - people who think too highly of themselves
I took part in shared education and the protestant teacher was prejudice to us catholic students
-weird people (e.g pedos and stalkers) - -scamers (e.g they  want money or to steal your identity for something bad)
Snapchat & Tiktok & instagram & facebook: - -sexual threat/abuse - -stalking - -bullying  - -black mail
-parents should restrict their child's access to online apps -
I think more dangerous behaviours could happen on apps like Snapchat because of features that probably shouldn't be there, e.g. "Snapchat Maps" which allows you to share your location at all times, which shouldn't be on an app primarily for teenagers.
I think people getting harassed might be more common on Snapchat because the messages delete themselves -
younger children who are unaware of the dangers with strangers
They have more confidence, they believe their actions wont be as serious because its online. They feel they have more power over you.
Blackmail on snapchat because your sending your self to another person, they can take your identity easier.
There is too much use of it most people are neglecting real personal connections because they believe their relationship online is better with the person theyve only been speaking to for a couple days than the people they can see in person.
bad people who is scared to say it to MY face
they are very naive on social media. they don know who is behind the screen
snapchat because its so easy to get pictures of people and send them round -
You are able to be completely anonymous online and the person insulting/harassing someone can say whatever they want with little to none repercussions for it
Behaviours like sending videos and images without peoples consent are more likely to happen on Snapchat due to majority of the youth in Northern Ireland having this app and Snapchat gives you the option to send stuff around like that so easily
I think all the issues regarding social media have already been said before elsewhere in greater detail that I could give myself
From my experience, I've found that catholics hold distain for Protestants due to extreme loyalism causing NI to lose their culture. A huge example of this is the Irish language and strong link to England's rather than Ireland.
People who are very capable of working with tech and have the ability to not get caught doing these behaviours. (Hack calls/massages)
I have seen Snapchat and iMessage be used often for scams. This is because a number can be easy to conceal as it's unknown and Snapchat deletes snaps after a short time, being untraceable or unrepeatable. I have also seen scams be played out on WhatsApp but few
Where I live, cautions on social media use are well taught and seen as important issues. Many are well educated or competent due their own ability, though people may still accidentally be victim to scams.
People wanting to make fun of the person and embass them online
People who have negative relationships in real life and seek a sort of refugee of love and affection online.
Snapchat as there is also a live location indicator called "Snap maps". Snapchat also has a feature to allow the other person to know when they're typing.
Immature teenagers who think that it is funny and that there will be no consequences
Sharing of indecent photos on snapchat because you can pretend to be anyone
Some young people use social media for the wrong reasons which have an impact on the young people using it sensibly
No thanks, i have provided as much information as i possibly can on the community.
People that have been hurt emotionally as they do not know how to deal with it and they proceed to take their hurt and anger out on other people.
Blackmail, bribes for money and sexual abuse
Lots of young people use social media and some young people use it for the wrong reasons. This is unfair to the young people as it causes hurt within the community.
It is a dangerous platform. Too easy to access information and so much mis-information. AI is a worry also
On social media people think they are free to say whatever they want because they don't have to see the effects on people and won't have harassment returned to them, having them believe that no consequences will reach them.
Social media isn't the biggest problem, it's the young people (usually boys) who are so very uneducated in matters of sexuality, gender and ethnicity that's are the problem. It is these young people who make social media unsafe and they need to be at very least monitored to ensure the safety of all under the effect of harassment due to sexual orientation, gender and religion/ethnicity
Political backing of things outside of the North are tearing us further apart - Catholics and Palestine; and Protestants and Isreal and trump.
Racists, sexists, xenophobic people, homophobes all the haters just because they can get away without any repercussions. I also think lots of weirdo right winged or poorly educated teenage boys who fall for propaganda like edits on tiktok.
There are so many problematic people on tiktok and lots of people only follow their close friends but mainly strangers while instagram you usually have everyone in your year and other peers so theyre less likely to say obscene things.
DO NOT LET PEOPLE UNDER 13 HAVE SOCIAL MEDIA!!!!
I only picked for my children to hang out with their own religion as they will bond more as they have more in common, but i personally don't mind who they hand with.
People who think they are cool, looking for attension, townies, bullies
Snap chat would be more used by people like that for me other apps are chill
Snapchat because messages get automatically deleted if they're viewed in chat and not saved
there can be people who don't get along with people outside of their religion, but for me it doesn't matter about religion just who the person is and how they act. -
People that are trying to impress their friends. Chavs mainly.
Snapchat etc most people can make fake accounts very easily. -
I think for most young people, they are alright and not easily fooled (like me currently). But for some it can be difficult and they might not realise they're being set up by bad people.
Communities need to be more accepting of diverse cultures and ethnicities , needing more activities to create a bigger feeling of inclusitivity and to make others feel more welcome.
People raised with a lack of diversity in their life or a lack of respect growing up will partake in more vile activities like posting with hostility against groups . These people's friends are also influenced to do so.
With playforms like Tiktok , knowing theres a large , younger number of viewers it's easy to influence them and find people as negative as them as Tiktok is global.
Young people gain too much access to it , and it effects them mentally as young people shouldn't be exposed to older content as it can mature them faster and irreversible leaving lasting effects as they grow older.
Anyone is more likely to engage in these behaviours online because they believe they won't get caught or that school can't do anything about it because it's online
Blackmail over snapchat or instagram is common because photos can be exchanged
They feel like it's easier to get away with, and its easier to pressure people in to doing something they don't want to.
On certain apps like Snapchat its more common for pictures to be sent and then deleted whilst apps like Whatsapp aren't as commonly used
No I just don't take part in anything in northern Ireland
Kids that's don't think they will get caught
I believe that teenagers are more likely to partake in these activities because gossip is a popular pastime for teens and they are also a group that spends the most time on social media in my opinion.
I think this happens more on Snapchat because it is what a lot of teenagers use to communicate.
Because there are no straight away consequences. -
Snapchat, due to loads of teenagers using the app you can easily encounter people trying to sell goods to you through quick add
Young people are more likely to get sent inappropriate messages through Snapchat without their consent.
I love where we live, everything is pretty peaceful.
In our friend group - we are love farming and most times wee are just making and sharing videos of our animals, tractors and farm yards.
People that tend to make more friends online then others.
I believe people being blackmailed with explicit photos are extremely likely to happen in snapchat and being hacked into can happen on instagram.
Keep passwords safe and try not to talk to people you feel have bad intentions
Snapchat as messages disappear after a certain time
because it is easier and it is less of a risk than in person, It is not safely monitored and can be very dangerous.
snapchat as it's more normalised and easier to use, such as sending inappropriate pictures.
People who feel as if it is easier to control you and get away with it if it is just online.
Snapchat- Harassment, because it is very easy for someone to add you on multiple accounts and you to have no idea who they are. -  -
It is still very unsafe and there should be better measures put in place in order to protect not just young people, but everyone who uses social media.
Just really divided and can't see that ever changing
Young people because all they do is go on their phones and they feel safe if they say it behind a screen because they know no harm will come to them
Because young people use Snapchat more that instagram
Grown, creepy men because they think everything online is anonymous
Very violent and morally wrong behaviour due to being anonymous
becoming too normalised in younger children (8+)
On Snapchat as it's easier to talk to people and send pictures I think
people with bad intentions would be more likely to engage in said behaviors or people with no moral compass
People are too reliant on it especially for relationships
Obviously people who do drugs are more likely to engage in the selling of them online
People think there are less consequences, they think they can just delete it later -
Being sent things without warning and not wanting them is more likely to happen on Snapchat because once you accept a friend request they can send and say anything
Our main religion is christianity officially, there is noo need to try for a "diverse" welcoming country, if you dont feel included here, your not ment here- so dont come. Eg immagrants
Unstably mental people - Immigrants who have no life to loose if put in prision
online chat rooms, mean more info shared etc
More bullying on snapchat compared to other apps
People who are struggling so they take it out on you because they don't know what else to do
People would sent threatening messages and inappropriate pictures on Snapchat because the messages disappear
It makes people feel insecure when they see pretty boys/girls on social media -
For example Snapchat deletes messages automatically so weird people can do these things knowing that unless the chats are saved, the evidence is deleted
People, mostly men who have no sense of boundaries
People can see what your doing and your face more often if your account isn't on private and someone posting a photo of themselves other people take that as an invite to start trying to talk to them
I have only a hate for protestants due to past behaviour in football and on the street i love the islamic faith and have great relationships with muslims and friends with many some people in my neighbourhood hate all race and religions but i only hate protestants
Its easier less consequences and unlikely to deal with repercussions
Online stalking on facebook and instagram as its a public platform and most people have a public account
A lot of young people do things like post scandalous videos online and is a very bad look on them and some face backlash for it and sometimes its deserved
snapchat more people use it to chat and its easier to get trapped in blackmail ect
It's a great country and my community is very close and I feel we need more Protestant events to take place, as I feel my area is very intimidated by Catholic and minority ethnic groups hosting events. I believe the Irish language act of 2022 should be banned as we should be trying to take time improving other skills.
People who don't have the guts to do it in person
i think we need to stop being prejudice to other religions and ethnic minorities
as you can create fake accounts on social media and it is unlikely they will be able to discover who you are
as for example on snapchat you can create fake accounts and send photos and vidios but on apps like tiktok you are not able to send photos
i think young people use social media for the wrong purpose and i do not agree with it at all
Probably people in finical difficulties and people who have problems at home.
Probably on apps like snap chat and Instagram. More used by younger people. Where as facebook and WhatsApp are used by older people. So I think it's most likely to happen on apps with younger people on it.
Boys- They think when a girl is in a vulnerable state they can get  anything from her then they use it against her.
It's unsafe and it used to be way better when all we did was dance on it and post funny skits
any person who feels threatened, as a act of protection
snapchat is stereotypical to be a messaging app, such as whatsapp, however instagram is mainly posting photos and watching "reels", their way of watching videos people post
social media should have a minimum age requirement, such as thirteen, in order to minimize harassment and fraudulent victims
older people as they dont understand technology as much as younger people yet
snapchat as you send individual pictures to people and thats what most people my age use to communicate
People who think the world can't get to them because their behind a screen (people with no common sense of decency)
Banter - Socialising  - Showing off things they do
Teenage boys because majority of them have no respect for women and they dont care how their nasty comments make people feel because to them its funny/ entertaining
I think bullying is more likely to happen on instagram or tiktok because you can comment on people's posts etc. On the other hand i think sharing of inappropriate pictures is more likely to happen on snapchat because people have groupchats and can text eachother privately sharing the pictures very quickly
The one friendgroup from my school because they are bullies
Bullying on snapchat because people are just werid
Bring back United Ireland and get rid off the prods
Cowards who do nothing in person but give out a lot of grief behind a screen
More could be done to encourage community relations in Northern Ireland
People who think they are more likely to get away with these behaviours because it is online more often people who are unstable
I think sometimes we use it too much and can have negative repercussions.
There are two buses to school one for the Protestant schools and one to the catholic schools and bus drivers used to be rude to people on my bus assumed to be because we were catholics
I think teenage boys because anyone who I have witnessed act that way are all teenage boys
Snapchat because people can see if u screenshot and stuff like that so the people acting that way usually get away with it because the messages disappear
Snapchat and apps where you can make fake accounts
Easier to do these activities when you can't be seen
Blackmail on Snapchat is more likely compared to others due to how easy it is for photos to spread
I wish everyone got along better, I still feel like there's prejudice between different religions and different cultures.
You can be anonymous, and avoid the risk of being held accountable.
The relationship between catholics and protestants are good when both religions understand the history of their religion in northen ireland and respect people's views but relations are bad when people don't respect other people's views and the history between the religions and the harm that it has caused
People don't know you it's easy to steal information and be a toward and hide behind a screen
Sending around nudes or screenshotting as u cannot see what the other person is doing with their phones with ur photos on it
I think social media is good as times have changed and it's going to stay around but some creaters shouldn't have the freedom of having platforms as they can manipulate young people especially new users and it contorts their brain and contorts their opinions such as young males and Andrew tate and the influence he has had and the damage it has done on society and more laws should be put in place to protect young people to be able to enjoy social media and not be taken advantage of
MORE ENGAGEMENT WITH PEOPLE ON SNAPCHAT RATHER THAN INSTAGRAM -
I did shared education projects in primary school and attended a mixed primary school and had good experiences. However I attended a catholic secondary school and had a a bad experience during shared education as I was insulted by members of the opposite religion. This ruined the experience for me and I feel this is shown in my answers. My extended family includes members of other religions, no religion and ethnic minority.
Sharing of pictures on Snapchat compared to instagram
Men because there is materials of young girls doing TikTok dances or the latest trend.
as it's less likely for reprucutions if you say bad stuff online compared to in public
The people being the bad behaviour as they probably think that they are behind a screen no to trouble with happen to them
Because people on social media don't think half the time before they post
People need to start accepting that not everybody will be who they want that person to be. The religion shouldn't play a part in an individual or society inclusive and civilised behaviour.
Make sure you trust the person you are talking to if private information will be passed towards them.
Snapchat and (to an extent) tik tok create an environment for this more than apps like Whatsapp and Instagram
Young teenagers and people my age because they often participate in online gaming platforms which may lead into harassment and other issues.
Cyber bullying will increase because of further use of a platform called ROBLOX which I used to use a lot.
Whatever happens, no one will forget all the injustices to them and their community, our history will always hang over us.
People brought up wrong, people who are easily influenced, people who know others who do the same, people from "rough" areas or schools
Snapchat because I hear about it all the time, grooming
Children have grown up with what their parents have taught them therefore in my opinion children from a young age should be taught in school about the troubles for example so they have an understanding from a young age because now in secondary school you have kids who are extremely racist and rude all because their parents and families have taught them from a young age cause they didn't know better and primary schools were too scared to talk about the troubles.
People with no heart and are ‚Äúbullies‚Äù and have absolutely no care in the world about other people around them and I believe this has something to do with their parents and the way they were brought up or they do it for attention (most of the time it's for attention)
Blackmailing, sexting, bullying and threats. I believe these occur cause the bully can hide behind a screen and think that there is no consequence to their actions
Nothing comes to mind other than people go to social media to hide their feelings for example if they are feeling sad and depressed they will go to tik tok and look at depressing videos just to feel more sad and angry even
Some apps make it easier to share this info
People often decide not to mix with certain communities immediately after finding out what background they are from, so I really believe its based off of that.
Those who harass others in real life will most likely do it online as well
Young people can typically handle themselves better on social media than adults, which is ironic because it is usually adults who teach us about online safety.
Young people as they spend more time on social media
Snapchat, minorities, sharing of photos without consent, hateful comments
Because you can hide behind a screen - Less likely to get held accountable
Sectarianism is the worst in Northern Ireland, never seen or heard of secrtarianism in any other place apart from here
People that have no life outside of their phone
Snapchat is more likely to have people selling drugs and vapes to young people also more likely to have nude photos of you sent around because of how easy it is to screenshot things on there
Religious conflict is more prominent in areas such as city's like Belfast where there is a bigger scale of segregation and family influenced prejudice. Regarding shared education, I experienced this in primary school with a local Protestant primary school. This scheme was awkward and connections were forged as both students including myself from the primary schools we attended knew that we were different from one another. Additionally, public services such as  leisure centres, library's, and shops should be open to the general public disregarding religion or ethnic background. However, not many people would feel comfortable journeying to a leisure centre or library if it where located in a ethnoreligious community as its intimidating and there's no sense of connection.
younger, more gullible or older people maybe believing a scam on social media
sharing images of people on snapchat and instagram as it's easy to screenshot and send to friends on these apps
Bullying, racism and alcohol and drugs sales
Younger ones shouldn't be allowed social media until a certain age and should be monitored.
It depends. Young people such as teenagers might be more likely as they don't consider all of the risks or damage they might be causing. Adults may be more aware of this yet there are many adults who engage in these behaviours.
On Snapchat it is a very quick process to add someone and chat to them almost immediately. However on Instagram you can send at least 1 DM to anyone you like even if you're not following them etc.
Scammers to steal personal information and take money
Scams on tiktok because it's a popular app
Sending of inappropriate texts and pictures on snapchat
I think that the community within Northern Ireland while at times is strained has been greatly strengthened. However, I fear with migration while this may strengthen inner relationships, both communities may gain a growth in hatred towards foreign religious influence.
I think that the people who are part of the more ‚Äòpopular' group are most likely to engage in these behaviours. I believe this is because they have such a big friend group that if called out, someone like myself would feel either too intimidated or feel unsafe.
I think TikTok is most likely for abusive content to be posted such as a photo of video. I believe this is because they believe it will gain traction a lot quicker and make them feel more ‚Äòpopular'. However, I also believe that Snapchat is a massive breeding ground for verbal abuse and the spread of photos. This is because of snapchats delete after a certain period policy. This means people can send a photo of harassment and then 24hrs later there is no proof anything happened.
I believe social media is too loosely patrolled. I believe that there is not enough restrictions and on apps like Snapchat there are none. This leads to the sad rampage of bullying online as people are left defenceless.
it's since each app is different so it may be easier to do on some apps that others
I believe that divisions in Northern Ireland no longer come from a place of hatred like before but from fear and a lack of understanding
Young boys especially those who are perceived as "popular". They tend to target girls who they believe would have no influence on how people perceive them, so they believe they can do as they please
Snapchat as snaps disappear immediately, there is no trace of them
I believe whilst this behaviour is a threat to young people, it is not always carried out by their peers, more so older people who believe they can manipulate
Twitter for discriminatory and bullying stuff, while Snapchat is like weird grooming and stuff. probably. I dont know.
snapchat more likely to get sent unwanted photos
snapchat is quite open to online bullying behaviours because it's quite easy to be added to group chats without consent and be subject to bullying in them
Young people since there more easily influenced than others and most of them haven't matured yet
Since young people communicate on these apps more than any other way of communication
Depending on the friend group. Some people may be surrounded by people who may act that way or may follow the same mindset. However those who don't may group together, forming a group who is completely unlikely to behave in that way
It is a lot easier to send pictures of people on Snapchat to others, especially without them knowing.
There is a lack of community relations regardless of religion. Someones religious background is of no concern to me. IHowever, it seems to be moving away from protestant versus catholic.  I guess it really depends on up bringing, parental values and beliefs and how society, schools and social media tries to dictate what or who is right and how young children are influenced. - One thing that is discussed and argued about daily is "foreigners"  even if born here, they are still viewed as foreigners. This is because many choose not to integrate with the people of Northern Ireland.  It looks like "they" move here, take advantage of our systems and do not contribute as much as they should. When out and about they can be seem in groups, which is intimidating, there seems to be a total lack of respect of housing. Many in one house, rubbish and filth around the property,  it is viewed as dirty and unacceptable, eg bringing down the tone. There is also the issue of manners, respect, and following the rules or what is socially acceptable behaviour , dictated for centuries in Northern Ireland. Please, thank you, holding a door, waiting your turn, crossing the street to name a few. Some ethnic groups are definitely favoured over others this is purely due to how they behave and treat the county and the people native to here. The colour of the skin or religious beliefs aren't the issue, unless it goes against the law of the land.
I think both genders male and female are more likely to slabber to others online because females won't like to slabber face to face as they can go on continuously behind a electronic device whilst men would sort it out face to face although boys will also slabber behind a screen thinking they're cool and tough but when it happens face to face they're scared.
I think social media can be a fun place for example doing online shopping,meeting with friends,playing games although it can also be a dangerous place especially for young people that are more likely vulnerable as they might not know how to deal with the situation.
Younger people because of online influence
being asked for nudes is more common on snapchat and stalking is more common on instagram and tiktok
Lots of things happen on snapchat because you can make messages disappear after they are read.
Some may have more experience in different areas of social media
i dont get what the big deal about being catholic or being protestant or not being from here. im protestant and i have a lot of catholic friends and i have friends from romania, poland, russia and lithuania
I think ex-boyfriends/girlfriends would most likely send around photos with out consent or try and force someone to send photos they dont want to online because they arent seeing the person infront of them so its easier for them to be rude behind a screen  -
i think this behaviour happens on snapchat because the pictures, videos an chats disappear
Strangers as they can hide behind a screen
Snapchat as messages delete after a certain period of time
Insecure people as they can hide behind a screen
More likely to happen on snapchat as messages can disappear -
On X people always argue about stupid things and can try some of the behaviours you've said
People who aren't happy with their life because they want to take control of something and feel happy about it
Snapchat since the messages can disappear after 24 hours
I think young people should be more warned about the risks of posting online and should maybe be given scenarios in school and they have to figure out what the right thing to do is.
Undeniably improving among younger generations such as my own. Although youth, from my experience mainly loyalist, influenced by paramilitary work and orange hall groups to be sectarian
Someone as a user instead of an actual person provides for a lack of empathy, it may feel as though they are not a real person with individual living circumstances and feelings. People also feel safer to say rude or inappropriate things behind a screen
Snapchat chats will disappear after a given amount of time meaning that people feel more comfortable sharing innapropriate things where they may feel otherwise on messenger or whatsapp where the messages stay. Or an online app such as omegle where u move through people quickly and you dont have to see or talk to them afterwards. Certain apps like snapchat also allow for easier made fake accounts- u dont need post photos or have memories to prove your identity so this makes it easy to deceive others, people also feel safer adding others for those same reasons
In talks and videos people seem to find it hard to grasp the consequences of their online actions and continue to act in normalised ways that are not acceptable. Whilst i do not know currently what, there must be a better way of expressing the dangers of social media to youth
I feel that young boys would be most likely to be engaging in these behaviours on social media as they can be very horny and looking for certain activities with a female.
People sharing information about themselves and images of their bodies.
Those who are physically disadvantaged as it gives them more leverage behind a screen than in person
Snapchat because you can delete things more easily like photos or messages compared to other social media apps
Dishonest people or violent people are more likely
Teenage boys mostly from Protestant backgrounds are rude, and racist
It's being normalised and teenagers feel safer attacking someone online with a group than in person by themselves
Snapchat you're most likely gonna get cyber bullied
I believe they have improved over time but I have seen and experienced prejudice due to religion. I believe integration is the way forward to treat this problem and teach children from a young age religion or ethnicity don't divide us instead unite us, and help open their minds.
Strangers, as within this day and age it is much easier to access information, message and find people on social media websites
Blackmailing, stealing of identity or information, spreading of photos/information without permission
Most of young people on social media don't have any malicious intent; it's only those that do that get media attention so it exaggerates the problem making it seem greater than it truly is
It badly affects politics. The politicians are more focused on the orange-green divide than actually doing anything about the state of things. - Also, schools should teach more about the Troubles to give young people a clear understanding of what exactly happened so they don't resent people their age who had nothing do to with it over atrocities committed years ago
Teenage boys because they either don't realise the damage they're doing or don't care
Snapchat tells you what someone does with a photo you've sent them, is easy to share stuff on, and is used by most teenagers
Awareness about warning signs of dangerous people and situations needs to be taught
I think sectarian views are passed down from parents who went through the troubles to their children and that's why it's not entirely better than it was 5 years ago
I think anyone is capable of doing anything as long as they're behind a screen. I don't believe it is specific to one group of people.
On Snapchat,many people believe chats and media is deleted after 24 hours if it is unsaved and on tiktok,multiple accounts can be made to hide your identity
Young people need to learn more about common dangerous activity that they will be exposed to when creating a social media account
id say more people would do theses things on social media because they are behind a screen and feel like they wont get caught as easily
sharing photos without consent, blackmailing people and stalkers
Snapchat/instagram due to many younger and more impressionable users
It should be a lot more strict as it can severely damage children if exposed at a young age
Thugs, you get them everywhere, you just don't know who's on the other end of the phone, so always keep safe when u can
Disgraceful behavior u always see people in fights an recording it which should not be allowed
There is people out there that scams, disgusting behavior an ruins social media for people,
I don't want to sound racist but I would say that people in not just Northern Ireland but the UK as a whole feel rather negative towards ethic groups as in recent events it feels like we are treated as second class citizens in our own country due to the government.
I can't really explain it but you just have to be a certain type of person to do something like that.
I don't personally use snapchat but I just have a feeling that behaviour would be more common.
I think young people get way too invested into it and make it a huge part of thier life. I only use twitter to stay updated and I only use tiktok to watch funny videos.
i think people asking for stuff or blackmailing you into something is more likely to happen on snapchat than instagram as you most likely know the people you have on snapchat and they could blackmail you more easily than if someone follows you and messages you on insta you could just block them.
tik tok because people post videos of their full identity
it should be banned for children under the age of 16 because it is corruptive, addictive, and currently not being regulated.
snapchat and tiktok and i don't know why
people who experienced the same thing because they want to help others
Teenagers because they are more comfortable online and a lot of them think that what they do online will remain anonymous when often times it will not.
People you don't know because there isn't really any consequences for them especially if they live far away.
snapchat u can see if people screenshot etc
Because people believe that they can more easily get away with it on social medias, and they are not face to face with the people they are engaging with these behaviours in.
Snapchat has more of a negative reputation of people sharing photos/details compared to apps such as Instagram.
I think elderly people are more likely to fall for these behaviours such as financial scams due to them being unaware of the harm or money loss it can cause them
I think blackmail or sharing of unwanted photos/videos are more likely on Snapchat, TikTok and Instagram because there is such a wide range of users on the apps.
Those who don't participate in other sports or hobbies
Because they can make their identity unknown.
Snapchat as the photos disappear and are not saved
A lot of children use it for the fun of it, but don't think deeply about what can happen on social media illustrated in the previous questions outlined ie blackmail etc.
Young men because of peer pressure and because they want popularity
Blackmailing is more likely to happen on Snapchat because they could get photos of you
Their faces arent showing so they are more likely to act like a bigger version of themselves
Snapchat is where personal information is more likely to be shared as chats are private
because they can hide themselves behind a screen
i am unsure but i know there is definitely some apps it is more likely to happen on
Most conflict is due to loyalty to religious identity and local communities rather than religion itself, the lack of diversity of cultures and religion due to past segregation is what allows this to continue.
People with strong beliefs in free speech and radical social and political beliefs  -
Verbal harassment as it is harder to enforce than public harassment.
Everyone needs to back off on LGBTQ harassment and stop revoking rights that were hard to achieve in the first place.  This community is not causing harm or offence. It people don't like it, just don't get involved.
I answered thinking of types of people that i see as bullies and thugs, not all young people. - Plenty of young people are just getting on with things and trying to keep themselves right
They stem from bigotry and inter generational trauma
Snapchat- it's easy to get access to photos
It's a great way to communicate but it needs more supervision
from experience the elder people don't like the younger people that much
many much older people than my age mostly likley trying to abuse the fact younger people are not fully developed and use them for money, bullying, information or whatever they want.
tik tok as many people use it and it is so open and free to see what people post/repost and see what they are like.
too many young people share too much to the public for other people that they don't know could see and find more about them despite not knowing who they could be in real life -
People who spend most of there time on social media and don't really interact with people outside of social media
People spreading rumours and nudes on Snapchat it's just what everyone uses as a method of communication
On snap u can add randoms and they can be creeps so they can sexually harass and on Tik Tok and insta others can dm u photos and vids aswell as post threatening vids or js bully u -
The violence that happens in NI isn't from protestant and Catholic Relations, the troubles ended 26 years ago. The main cause of violence is relations with immigrants, and the economic problems people face because of them.
It should be a parent's job to take your phone, and being bullied on social media is stupid cause it never happens and you can just not reply to someone or block them. It's plain pettyness to report someone  -
I think social media is a bad place and can be scary, therefore i dont use it. There are some horrible people in the world, and I believe by avoiding social media, one can avoid some nasty people
if peoples accounts arent private then other people can contact you that you dont know - eg Tiktok
People who spent a lot of time on social media and become too trusting of people they meet online.
Snapchat is most likely for these behaviours to happen on as quick add allows people to add strangers who may be older than them. These things are less likely to happen on WhatsApp. -
It does have benefits despite the risks listed previously.
I think that people from different religions generally get on well with each other unless someone does something against someone else and then there can be disagreements
People who don't have a job and are trying to scam people to make money
More likely on instagram as you can screenshot things without the person being notified so it is easier to repost or share things about them
Young people waste too much of their free time on social media and can comment meanly or rudely on people's posts without thinking too much about the effect it can have on that person
Its sad how people decide to hate each other and hurt each other all based on political, religious or ethnic beliefs
Being sent unsolicited nude photos or porn on snapchat and drug stuff on instagram
drug dealers in order to market products
worse things happen on x compared to instagram due to online guidelines
Younger people like classmates because they find it easier to hide behind their screens than say something to your face
Bullying because they don't have to do it in person and can keep their identity secret if they want -
Inappropriate pictures sent to you on Snapchat
Nothing that hasn't been brought up already
People who are scared to talk shit in real life because they'd get their ass handed to them
More sexual stuff will happen on snapchat since messages get deleted
ITS ALL A LOAD Of MALARKY STOP ASKING STUPID QUESTIONS
People can't see past a persons religion. They can't just see the person as themselves.
People who have more extreme views are more likely to do these types of things because they feel shielded by the fact they are anonymous.
It's so easy to do this on Snapchat, and lots of people don't see the problem with it.
Black mailing online dating inappropriate activity
Social media is damaging to teens mental health.
It's the way that if they were to act this way on social media, rather than in person, they feel they are less likely to get caught so they use fake accounts, profiles ect. To conceal their identity to get away with it. But if they were to act in a similar fashion in person, they would be more likely to face a consequence.
Boys  - Girls from my school - Girls that have bulled me in school  - People my age shouting horrible things at me up town - Treating me
Parents nowadays are very strict when it comes to being in certain areas, especially in Belfast. Their views, in my opinion, are very outdated. I am not saying that they are wrong, but what I am saying is that they maybe need to learn more about what is happening now. I know I am not allowed to certain places because it is Protestant and my family is afraid of me getting hurt. But I have a lot of Protestant friends who I just see as normal people who wouldn't hurt me in the slightest.
People are more likely to engage in these behaviours online because they are behind a screen. People get very confident when they are behind a screen, they know they would not do any of this in real life but feel more powerful online.
I feel stalking is more likely to happen on apps such as TikTok and Snapchat because people can see your location and what you post. I also feel that grooming is a big problem with Snapchat because by accepting one friend request to a person you don't know can get you in a lot of trouble.
Young people with undiagnosed mental health issues.
Jealousy based from girls with little or no self awareness of their actions.
People who haven't been taught that the things they are doing are wrong
Bullying because of content that people make
Everybody will hate eachother forever.There will never be true peace.If Catholics and protestants finally get along they'll hate Muslims,or Jews,or Hindus-this is a country made of war and hate
Your current partner's ex.For example,my boyfriend's ex is currently harassing him and stalking him-when she found out about me she used a fake number to ask stuff about me and she has continually looked on my tiktok account(you get a notification saying someone has looked on your account)
It's encouraged as the moderators/workers don't ban or suspend accounts as it drives up engagement in post and more view-time which means more money for the companies who own these social media platforms
Most should be off social media for their own good-not just mental health or the normal reasons.They most the most provocative and sexual,whorish stuff it makes them seem like tramps when most of the time they're not, they're mainly just wanting attention or a good partner even though they're not a good one themselves
Teenagers because they can get away with it.
Bullying on tiktok since its such a popular app  and many young people use it. There's also alot of snap chat creeps from what I've heard.
Shouldn't be allowed to have it untill your 12 or 13   it's too much influence especially on young kids becoming teens.
Friends and classmates are more likely since they claim it is for a joke
Mostly Snapchat rather than other apps such as Instagram because it is a very social app where people can make group chats and spread information easily
Boys - People who are bullied themselves in person -
Tiktok due to the nature of the app being people posting either videos or photos of themselves leads to harassment due to looks/appearance
Most young people use social media for too long
People generally find it easer to do stuff when its not face to face including scaming,cheating aor bullying
Younger people as they are more immature
Rules and Regulations of some websites are more strict then others
I belief that community relations are a standstill they are neither improving or worsening
People who are bored and have nothing better to do and they think they won't get caught as it is online
As Snapchat is mainly messaging platform and instagram is more for posting photos however hate comments would be more common on instagram
No but I do wonder why the gender discrimination questions were all on females as males can be discriminated against for there gender too
I think it is mainly the older generations who hold onto prejudice against sects of religion and ethnic minority groups. Most young people I've met don't really have these same biases.
I think people who have experienced a lot of childhood trauma are more likely to pursue these behaviours, as it's far easier to do them online than in person, and it's almost like a coping mechanism to hurt people this way for this kind of person.
I think posting unwanted photos or harassing people is more likely to happen in Snapchat, because the messages and pictures disappear after 24 hours, so it's easier for these kinds of people to do it, and avoid accountability.
I would like to state that it's a very small minority of people who are doing these kinds of behaviour, but they harm a great deal of people, and I would like to say these issues affect certain genders more than others, for example, more women are affected by sexual discrimination, whereas more men are victims of toxic masculinity, where they're called homosexual slurs for traditionally feminine behaviour.
Everyone is  brought up in different ways  and each person has a different view on wha is right and what is wrong
Teenagers are more likely to engage in these, due to wanting attention or wanting something out of it, or just taking anger out on people who do not deserve it
On tiktok. There's more likely to be bullying and people posting bad stuff about eachother. Or commenting hurtful things on their posts, aswell as Instagram
People who are clearly unaware that other people have feelings, probably since they haven't been taught basic social skills
Probably a lot more fake friends or fake relationships on Snapchat since it is an app where a primary function is to talk to people
It is reaching people (children) who are too young, dragging them into a dangerous world they are not ready for.
Absolutely atrocious especially on social media.
People who hide behind screens and don't have the actual courage to say it to people's faces.
Snapchats quick add and location is so easy to get a hold of if your friends and so easy to go wrong quickly cause you can add strangers. Tiktok's also bad because creeps can look at your videos if their public and comment indecent things.
I'd usually prefer my own religion, but I've got many friends from other religions. I don't think religion matters at all, although its not the way things are in ni
People who usually spend a lot of time online and don't spend as much time doing things in real life
Apps like Snapchat Cs the msg delete automatically after like a day
many integrated schools cater to their protestant children and their values and traditions more than they do catholics
certain apps make it easier to spread information
i feel that as a community, Northern Ireland has grown and developed so much since the troubles, however no matter how hard we try and grow, there will always be some sense of divide. I see myself as neutral and treat people on both sides equally, i have many protestant and catholic friends however i believe that deep down i always will have some background noise stereotyping protestant people, i think this is mainly due to how i was raised, rebel music, and traditions.
those who are quite antisocial in person, they are typically slot more confident when behind a screen
i feel like platforms such as sanpchat are more likely to be used for this due to features liek dissapearign messages, private stories, and anonymity
i feel like the use of social media should be mre tightly monitered
Snapchat you can add people you don't know you can send videos photos sometimes even have your location on you can call on it
Sometimes the young people can be indimating and quite rude. I find that most young people thta i am friendly with an daround often do not have strong opinions on religion, however many young people are quite discriminatory and prejudice against peple of diferent races,religions ect. or even people who dress differntly to them
I think that young boys are more likely to engage in behaviours like this especially if its towards girls or women or an ethnic minority. I think that being racist/sexist and making racist/sexist comments is normalised by their other male friends and society as a whole and they think that it makes them cool.
In my personal opinion I rarely experience any forms of harassment or negative comments because I only accept close friends or family into my social media accounts. Generally I have positive experiences on social media as I can watch videos I enjoy on tiktok and talk to my friends on snapchat and follow my favourite celebrities on instagram. I don't really think that social media itself is a bad thing at all, it is the way some people may chose to use social media that can be negative.
People like to take advantage of others and feel good about making others feel bad.
Bullying as disappearing messages happen so it is less easy to be able to screenshot
It's always a place where u need to look behind u incase someone is following you or you need to be careful who u speak to incase they could get ur windows done in or through paint over ur house, we don't feel safe here anymore especially as women
It has became a lot safer these past few years than it ever has been i would be comfortable to have social media as it is safer now
Personally I've never cared much for religions and sometimes people can be pushy about it but I find that having mixed religions in society or mixed ethnic groups can help people open up and to be proud about being different.
Particularly teenagers between 13-15 who are going through personal difficulties or being bullied themselves. I have experienced people making fun of me for making weird videos but as I grew it stopped. Teenagers just tend to feel the need to be the biggest and best but as they grow they learn to accept people for who they are unless you are being taught by prejudiced people or being hurt in your own way.
I feel that apps like Snapchat are more likely to encounter people such as this as it is an app made for connecting with new people, over apps such as TikTok or Youtube which are mainly used for sharing media
Not really, I personally think they are quite good.
I think young people who are too scared to do things face to face will hide behind a screen and do it.
Sharing pictures without consent is most likely to happen on snapchat as pictures and chats delete after 24 hours.
Unsure, but some people are targeted because of what they do, less of what you believe
Those with little to no education around the dangers of social media as they are naive to the dangers. Also young children who are given early unmonitored internet access for the same reason
Sharing of photos on Snapchat as people believe once the photo is opened it disappears. Illegal activities on X/twitter as they have very relaxed guidelines and predatory behaviour such as catfishing or attempting to meet with younger children on teenage based friend/ dating apps such as ‚Äòwizz'
It is dangerous to give unlimited and unmonitored screen time to young children who have not yet been sufficiently educated on the dangers of it yet.
I think more people would say whatever they want because it's on a screen and not online, making the things they say worse
Because they are lonely and insecure and the only way they can feel good about themselves is by ruining something for others.
I feel it's more like to occur on Snapchat or TikTok because they're so fast growing aswell as security measures aren't up to great standard on them.
people who have nothing better to do and people who are bored and may find it funny
tiktok is more likely to leak details and unwanted videos of people
it should have never been introduced to people as young as us in the first place as it has long term affects such as mental health as social media is fake and makes us think things that aren't real
Strangers because they know they wont have to face you after it
Everyone is more confident to do things on snapchat, I think its because the messages delete after 24 hours
Some people feel as if they can get away with these behaviours online as they think just because its on a screen, it cant affect them in the real world -
You can get away with saying a lot of stuff on Twitter/X now that Elon owns it
I personally think Snapchat poses a bigger threat to the leak of videos/photos as it is the main feature of the app itself.
Social media platforms need to introduce better safety for young users online where possible
People who can't build genuine relationships with others outside of social media
Grooming js more prominent on apps such as snapchat as more younger people are using it
Pretty bad between political and ethnic groups compared to other nations, sectarianism and racism is rooted deep in the people here.
They are just bad people who want an outlet to do something wrong which is not face to face
Barely see any catholics in the area so wouldn't know  -
As more likely on Instagram or Snapchat than youtube due to messaging
Snapchat due to disappearing messages  - WhatsApp with free photo sharing
Absolutely pathetic. Communities are being torn apart from the sheer amount of migrant freeloaders being placed everywhere. More often than not these men are violent, thieves and on several occasions acted out sexual violence on girls/women in the towns. For the likes of Catholics and Protestants that's something that these two groups can usually agree on, which given the history between two sides, that agreement has weight. Community's do not feel safe with these immigrants here and every citizen of this country has every right and more to think as much. For the most part these views would be brushed of as prejudice, but most citizens can confirm via their own anecdotes that this is a major crisis that is ruining not only our countries economy and safety, but our community.
I feel like a broken record, but usually these hackers/scammers/blackmailers are located somewhere around Africa/Asia- primary Pakistan and India.
X and Reddit has no real filters for any types of content such as pornography or gore so things like that are more apparent there. Lots of information/ photos be sent around on Snapchat due to the fact that the app was originally designed for nude swapping and the focus on texting came later.
If it were up to me I'd ban it. I use it every day and it rots my brain and every single other young person I know. It controls us. It's literally an addiction that isn't being taken seriously at all. Of course chances are it'll never be BANNED but I hope one day I'll just chuck my phone into a riverbank and not look back on it.
Bullying on TikTok  - If someone doesn't like your content
People are able to use Snapchat in many ways and inform information that people haven't consented by creating a private story or showing the personal chats they may had with this person with others.
Certain apps would be easier to manipulate people on. Eg. Snapchat msgs disappearing, compared to WhatsApp where they stay forever
People that don't have a good home life as they are craving the attention they don't get at home as they just want to be loved
People who are insecure as they just want validation
Sectarianism will always exist in Northern Ireland. The Troubles may have ended officially, yet never mentally deprived from people's heads. Society has become more secular in recent years, however some people sustain their staunch opinions and refuse to educate themselves on the contrasting beliefs of others, and ignorance of society to discriminate or prejudice someone for their religion will unfortunately always exist.
When people are behind a screen, they can get away with it. We let them as this issue is not taken to a serious matter. Social media for most is a light-hearted pass of leisure time, yet some others take advantage of that to use it against other people: the most vulnerable; young people.
Lack of confrontation. People tend to find their confidence behind a screen. The fact it is described as "simple" to easily take a photo, screenshot, share makes these behaviours more likely.
Social media has wrecked young people's lives, and it continues to do so for this younger generation.
Sexting, trading nudes on snapchat because it says if a person is screen recording or taking screen shots of stuff
People who have not been taught how to act morally or compassionately towards others by their guardians etc.
Stop burning 20 meter bonfires like damn chill out and just put the money into an account or something instead of literally burning it to the ground in the form of ¬£2 pallets -
Boys, they know it's all just jokes and nobody is going to get mad over it -
Instagram - Has basically no moderation - Discord - Generally a site with a lot of disturbed people - WhatsApp - The group chats... -
People could feel more confident and have more confidence rather being in person with the person
Friends of the people because they think it is funny
Snapchat and instagram are likely to happen on
That people need to be careful as there are lots of strangers and also that just because you delete something doesn't mean it is gone forever it can always be traced back
Men, they're generally the ones who don't have any understanding of basic human decency.
Sharing non consensual photos in private messages on apps like Instagram, twitter, Snapchat etc. Spreading harmful rumours and doxing personal information on basically any form of social media. Bulling, and harassment too.
because people are behind a screen so they believe that can do anything without facing repercussions and consequences.
Older men as they can get away with saying stuff behind a screen
Snapchat as the messages disappear in 24 hours
people who are too afraid to say anything in person
its more likely to happen on snapchat because its easier to take and send photos and the person u sent them to cant look at them again without u knowing
People who are selfish and don't realise the effects it has on others and the effects on them for sharing information that they didn't get consent for also i think jealous people would do this or people who have had a bad experience with such person
Young people may be more naive and fall for scams and old people too, people who are having a hard time made want comfort so might be more susceptible to people trying to get close to them with bad intentions
Younger girls as they do not have enough knowledge and understanding on safety -
Insecure people try to make themselves feel better
Pedophiles. It is easier and safer to do stuff on social media
More likely on Snapchat. It is an app mostly used for close friends and more private than other social medias. Therefore people send more private photos which can get leaked.
I don't think many people from my school would do this because it's more of a reserved ¬¥country' school however I think people who attend schools in say Belfast are a bit more out going and are online more would engage and experience this more often.
Sharing pictures or taking embarrassing pictures would probably happen on Snapchat . - Whereas on TikTok people could make videos basically taking the mic out of someone or something that they do.
People who are uneducated on these issues
Sharing photos or videos on Snapchat as most people have it
Because they can do it behind a screen and feel safer that way
On Snapchat texts and snaps can delete right after being viewed so there isn't as much evidence
Old men because they think they won't get caught
People asking for nudes as they know people will send them if they get asked enough
They feel more hidden and think that nothing will happen on social media compared to real life situations so they feel like they can comfortably do these harmful actions.
Well Snapchat for example you can snap pictures and send them to people which they can save which then they could sell.instagram as well you can post pictures of people on your stories making them feel unsafe.Some apps don't have restrictions which could make people feel unsafe in some situations.
I just want there to be equality and peace
They can be anonymous and so they are not recognised by anyone therefore they don't get in trouble
people think they can keep there identidy hidden on social media and they think it is a lot easier to bully others on social media behind a screen -
the more popular social media apps like snapchat are more likely to be shared around as a lot of people my age use it
some young people shouldn't be using social media and they should be wiped off all social platforms e.g bullies and racists and people that leak nude photos of others either real or Ai
i think its mostly boys because girls are more away from social media and social media is kind of covering uou in a way so no one knows it was you
lieing about others verbal abuse etc this id because it is safer
social media is a place to share your life with others not to disrespect others
I believe there is still prejudice coming from both sides even after shared education, speaking from my own personal and family's experiences. I also think this should not be the case and should be more effort placed into forming bonds between communities through discussion rather than just avoiding uncomfortable conversations which are never spoken about during shared education.
Snapchat due to it being able to delete immediately after read
Mostly teenagers because you can hide your identity and it's easy to get away with
Mostly snapchat as the evidence can disappear after 24 hours
Most likely older men or people who are sad in real life so bully and harass behind a screen -
snapchat is one where a lot of people add and accept strangers in hope of making a friend or even more than a friend but you can always accept the wrong person a person with bad intentions, you also get tik tok scammers in your dms but it is not as common and you can get it rarely on instagram.
Bullying, videos and stuff like that on Snapchat probably because chats get deleted instantly or after 24 hours
Don't share personal information to strangers
Speaking from my local area, protestants snd catholics are divided in sense of parades and gatherings, but occasions like soccer groups, they are mixed, but it's obvious that one both catholic and protestants don't interact as much as they do amoung themselves.
Dikhead boys that think they all that - People who don't care for others
Snapchat, just the fact it's stickers, snaps and u can save in chat  and most young people use it majority
Just the way people say they know how to handle stuff, but when it comes to it, they get scared and keep it to themselves, making it worse for that individual
apps like snapchat can be more anonymous compared to instagram cause chats can disappear straight away
I think teens are more likely to engage in these behaviours due to peer pressure and wanting to fit in and look cool
I think sharing images/ information is more likely to happen on snapchat than instagram because it's easier to delete the messages and it's easier to get rid of them from the chats
People can operate anonymously or with false I formation. Therefore it is harder to be caught
Catfishing mostly, for example Instagram l, facebook and Snapchat are large victims, cyberbullying or harassment on most social media applications
Really depends on the Individual's morals and ideas
Men, false sense of confidence in anything they do
Blackmail etc is more likely on snapchat rather than insta
Spreading misinformation. Some people are just like that
They could be a lot better than they are now
People who have had struggles with family and look for love somewhere else, even if it isn't good for them
People sharing intimate images without consent from other people
From my perspective I would say men however this is possibly due to me being more aware of men on social media trying to ensure I am safe ‚Äúfrom them‚Äù
It's quite common to get someone offering you drugs on snapchat and you could engage with this because you feel more anonymous, this also goes for people who demand nudes of people, you may feel more intimidated because that person is usually anonymous.
Snapchat- because everyone is hiding behind a screen and texting wee girls being creeps but they wouldn't do it in person
People can use social media to do good things like spend awareness. Communicate with their friend
It's a main part of young people's upbringing.
Young people as there is less chance of receiving consequences
There's always going to be a few people that will think more strongly about their religion and others religion.
People you have fallen out with, as since you've been friends/dating you've told them a lot of things about you which some then choose to use against you in a humiliating way.
Photos and videos being shared without consent would be most likely to happen on the app they use most, which for most people is Snapchat.
We all use it but other young people can use it in horrible ways to belittle others.
Catholic and Protestant relations have improved but in certain areas their opinions can be intimidating and usually we only have problems because people are raised a certain way otherwise most people get on
Men exploiting young girls - Young people with little awareness or education on good and bad and too much bad exposure to negative things
Not sure I can speak for every person in every part of NI
Young people because they can hide behind a screen
Sharing/posting things is probably more likely to happen on Snapchat as it's more common to contact people. Also it sends a message to someone if you take a screenshot of their messages so people can hide evidence easier if they don't want the person to know they've taken a screenshot of their behaviour
As for the ones being harassed on social media - I think more vulnerable people (eg people dealing with mental health issues or people who have had traumatic experiences) are more likely to intervene with these dangerous people due to being lonely and not in a good place (leading to less smart decisions) -  - As for the ones doing the harming, I would say these are people who have been treated horrible all their life and wants to inflict this onto others because it's all they have ever known, they find this funny and don't realise the impact of their actions or they are simply a disgusting person.
Mostly all social medias because there seems to be less and less privacy in these apps. Sharing things that shouldn't be shared has also become very normalised and it is easier to target others or be targeted. Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram etc are all very public apps.
Social media isn't all bad and hasSome benefits
I rarely see any hostility between religions in my school even as we are a mixed school however there is still a distinct divide sometimes present
I think everyone is capable of these acts however from here of others experience around me I would say men/boys are more likely
just to be careful who you are speaking to as people are not who they say they are sometimes
No there isn't anything else i would like to say.
I feel on an app like Snapchat is is more likely to share unwanted images than tiktok for Example
snapchat is a lot easier to send explicit photos of other people compared to other social media
snapchat sharing photos as it's for privately texting and snapping rather than instagram which is for publicly posting photos and things
people with negative views of Catholics / Protestants usually get that view from their family's beliefs and it is rare to pick up that hatred from anywhere else.
snapchat is probably the worst for most things, as it's extremely easy to share personal information/pictures about someone to anyone as it is so easy to spread things in snapchat
I think it's daft, i dont really be posting anything, i would mostly just use it to watch funny videos and stuff
Because it's behind a screen so they gain confidence and a sense of security doing it behind a screen
Sharing picture of people without their consent on Snapchat because it's more used for groupchats and stuff so people will just send stuff in there
Efforts of community projects and schemes have played a part in improving relations however certain incidents and prejudice cause these improvements to be destroyed
People feel a lot less vulnerable on social media as accounts can be deleted etc. Therefore making them engage in behaviours they would not in person.
Snapchat - Grooming / indecent images -  - Instagram - Hateful comments
When used correctly it can be a great tool for keeping in contact with friends however there is also a dark side of social media, frequently used for manipulation etc in nowadays society
because people can make fake/ anonymous accounts and say and do what they want to say and do and think they wont get caught doing it - basically like a false sense of security
i think its most likely to happen on snapchat bcos people use it more compared to instagram
People who have had bad upbringings as their parents may not have taught them how to act properly
Snapchat the sharing of photos around lots of people is more common than on any other app
Young people Spend way too much time on social media
Not too sure but maybe for example someone who is in unstable relationships at home or outside of home and seeking attention or stability in life
Bullying, racism, prejudice and sexism etc. This is because people feel safe from being caught about their actions because they are hiding behind a screen
They are on it too much and abuse it to put people on uncomfortable positions
It depends on what area of Northern Ireland you focus on - the country side compared to the town have very different relations with their respective communities.
Depends on people's backgrounds, how they were raised in their home, how young they were when they first used social media and people who have less friends in real life.
People asking for nudes on snapchat, trying to build a relationship on snapchat whereas not on instagram.
People with far-right or far-left political opinions
vapers,smokers just the rough crowd of kids
Someone unhappy or someone who only cares about personal gain.
Generally disturbing content is found on meta apps such as SnapChat and Instagram.
certain aspects have developed and changed for the better however some people have kept their strong political views over certain religious but in my opinion it boils down to how the person was raised and them as a person
people simply like the attention while others dont feel like they can speak up if it is something such as a friend
nude sharing on snapchat due to the way the app works with cut outs, limited timers on photos
It's more face too online as people aren't as scared to say what the think towards other and I think that behaviour like this isn't nice to be apart of.
i dont know what the relations status is im not really involved
i think that having cross community religions can be important to diversify areas however it can be comforting to be surrounded by people with similarities to you like religion. I believe that Protestants and catholics will anyways have tensions, primarily laid down to the generational pass down of views and actions from parents. while i believe that the relation has improved over the decades, without change from the parents i don't think there will every be complete understanding between the two.
personally i believe poeple of lower income households would be more likely to engage in these activities due to years of statistics and analysis carried out. in particular the offer of illegal substances is a presumably common occurrence in these lower income areas and therefore could be more likely to happen online from these same people
snapchat is always more likely because everything deletes after you open them, this makes it easier to do things like this becuase it gives the illusion that it is gone forever after it's sent
Posting images and verbal attacks on Snapchat
Snapchat, as most young people have this app. -
People could try to be nicer to one another
Twitter, because thats where all inappropriate forms of media go and snapchat because that's where most commonly leaks happen
I don't know how to explain it but certain people who chat online but Won't do anything irl
Those who may not be fully aware of certain things like blackmail and will go along with it to a certain extent along with other circumstances. Aswell as those seeking a relationship may not realise the person is up to something.
Apps that have dms are open to mostly anyone meaning people can say rude things anonymously, try hack by sending links etc.
It can be addictive and using it can go down the wrong route like violent images/videos so people need to think what theyre doing and becareful.
I think young men are more likely to commit acts of harm online due to the propaganda degrading women along with members of ethnic minorities and lgbt people which is targeted towards young me
Different guidelines apply to different apps
STOP ILLEGALS NOW! THE YOUTH DONT WANT YOUR FOUL MELTING POT,  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE STOP REPLACING YOUR OWN PEOPLE. WANTING TO LIVE AMONG YOUR OWN IS *NOT* RACIST.
People with no balls, cant say or do it in real life so hide behind a screen probably
Authoritarian government has me scared to exercise my free speech online.
they could still be greatly improved, while many of the youth now a day's don't hold outward prejudice (like beating someone for their religion), they still have many passive prejudices. Whether passing comments, verbal 'jokes' ect ect
They don't have to face the person theyre doing it to, theyre more likely to not receive any punishment, it's unlikely the'll be found out in the first place
Its probably more likely to occur on apps that youth use to talk to one another, like discord or snapchat
In this day and age it is integral to most teenagers and if further blocking of use/complete removal of use occurs it would probably have a more negative effect then positive.
Community relations could be better but i dont think its going to change
A lot of things are targetted at young boys to make them act a certain way which is usually hateful and sexist towards women, ive most often seen things like that
Photos and videos being shared on twitter, instagram and tiktok without consent is more likely cause people post randomly on ghere more often
It seems bad but when you find safe spaces online its good. But there is an excessive amount of hate and discrimination online
Adults, because they have more knowledge on things and people will believe them more
Posting private information on a public account
Men I feel are more likely as a teenage girl because they feel like they can get away with it.
Snapchat is sharing photos without the persons permission. TikTok is posting inappropriate content without permission. Instagram and twitter and sharing videos, pictures and text to a wider audience without permission.
Some young people are using social media for the wrong reason; sharing false information/ photos. Social media should have stronger guidelines towards protecting young people using it.
Young boys because they are influenced easily by tv shows and videos online and also think it's funny or impressive for their friends
Snapchat because it is able to be gone off your phone instantly
Some people are able to use social media as its real use but many use it to bully and promote hate towards many different things like even a specific person which is mainly young boys
Snapchat has more young people and one to one contact
sharing pictures on group chats because it's a form of bullying
Some things get deleted on apps easier than others -
snapchat - chats get deleted and you can't screenshot - makes it easier to hide
Someone who is not aware of the dangers that come with using social media and talking to people they don't know
Trying to get information from people on snapchat but can also happen on instagram
Religion isn't the problem in Northern Ireland. The problem is racism. Everytime I go into a shop I am followed around by the security guards. It isn't just with me, it is with my family members aswell. Which makes doesn't make me feel like I belong in any community.
Insecure people because they'll get bullied in real life
Unwanted nude pictures because men are weird and send them for no reason.
I think that people who have a jealousy issue or problem towards others may be more invested in there life through the media
i think online bullying and online stalking are more likely to happen
The sharing of unwanted photos on Snapchat because it's easy to circulate
Less traceable information on platforms such as Snapchat/telegram compared to the other very public social media platforms eg instagram
People who are cocky and who has more confidence than others to make them feel better than others
I do not support those who parade on the streets for either Protestant or Catholic reason as alot of them are hypocrites, not all of them but a good few are. -
People that have not understood the seriousness of these actions. As well there are people that think that this is normal and even funny.
Snapchat would be particularly bad as more young people use this, you can add anyone in the world without there phone number and it deletes your messages if not saved.
People use it too much and they place it too high in importance. It is very useful to stay in touch or help someone if they need to talk to someone but it can also be very negative.
If schools and areas were more integrated community relations would be better
People who act the same way towards people in real life
Social media apps have different censorship
Not really as I feel community relation in my area, school and where I train is equal and understanding of eacother
My friends are likely to send a photo of me my other friends. More than someone I wouldn't know
People are more likely to screen shot or screen record something on Instagram where the person who they are taking this from is less likely to find out. Whereas Snapchat tells the user who is affected when this is happening
It's a good tool that can be utilised but it can also very well be used for other reasons that see no benefit toward the user
People with opinions they keep to themselves. As it is a lot easier to express yourself online
Indecent photos are more likely to be shared on main stream apps like snapchat, Instagram and WhatsApp
It depends on the time of the year we're religions affect the community
People who are to scared to say stuff face to face
Bullying and harassment, stalking and false information spread to a person. People just like drama q most of the time
I think there should be more done to teach children about other religions. Especially in primary schools as removing biases and educating on other religions at a young age would help remove the stereotypes and prejudice in NI now.
Mostly bullying due to people sharing pictures and videos of victims in large group chats or snapchat stories
There could be more done to limit online bullying, its often used as a shield to say things they wouldnt in real life.
I truly do not know if relations will improve or weaken between Catholics and Protestants. i don't think that the religious conflicts strongly motivate people's actions and how they interact with others as people are becoming more secular.
Both men and women? its easier to spread Hate Speech on both sides as neither have to say it to each others faces. Also, with Social Media you don't get a following based on the truth of your claim but by how extreme it is or controversial which makes social media quite a harmful place for both men and women -
I believe that young people are smart enough to be fully aware of these dangers. the question i think is really 'Do they care about it or not?' -
older people-probably millennials and mostly men
we use it way to much, we depend on it way to much, and we let it make our thoughts/opinions for us. we need to be independent and more unique and individual.
Young boys who were never taught that they dont own the world because ‚Äòboys will be boys' and now they think they can do anything
Kids shouldnt be allowed on line access until they are at least 11 even then it needs to be monitored until they turn 13
People who havent been taught how to properly behave on social media by parents or schools
People can send things around easier on snapchat
Sometimes when there are protestant marches people ask you what religion you are. That could always be a trick I say silent personally because I don't know which one I am. My mum is Catholic and my dad is Protestant. I think hate for either Israeli-Palestinian conflict has risen, they expect you to choose a side. I also feel like it matters what gender you are, in school people may make fun of you for being gay, or people treat you better if you are a guy, it doesn't seem as important to look out for girls.
Someone who knows your vulnerable from stolen information, someone older than you, a creep, most likely a guy but can also be a girl at times
Sharing photos without consent, bullying, harassing
People don't treat it as surverly as they should, and don't do the necessary action to ensure the vulnerable are protected.
someone with poor relationships with their parents or hasn't been taught well by their parents
Not really, I would definitely like for relations to get better even though they have there is still a lot of work to be done.
I think mostly strangers. I believe people build a persona of themselves online as to be tough and threatening, but would never really act like that in person. I think its a dangerous thing that should have more moderation and consequences.
I think because they add a layer of 'privacy'. Such as Snap Chat, it shows you if you save something or take a screenshot and disappears unless you save it.
I think there should be stricter age restrictions, such as verifications rather than just entering a email and password and having full access.
some people arent as aware of the danger but also many people i know are a lot more trusting and have ended up in really bad situations because they were lied to
snapchat is the worst for inappropriate photos or videos getting shared because if its sent as a snap it disappears straight away and stuff can be easily hidden in my eyes only
young people arent stupid we know when something isnt right having it drilled into us all the time makes us feel lije we are stupid however i understand we need to be aware of the dangers
Bad behaviour on apps like Snapchat as people can just make different accounts and stuff very easily
Loads of teenagers spend too much time on it
That for the most part everyone helps eachother the best they can. but can be disrespectful
because people can be very manipulative online and you only wanna be friends
Its turned into more toxic for everyone rather than any good but when you have good friends if your being builled harrseed etc its easier to talk to soemone
People who are often bullied in person, or have grown up with violence surrounding them  as they feel powerful online with an anonymous identity and are cruel due to the way they are treated.
It is easier to find people on apps such as snapchat, as lots of names from people you may know can come up in quick add, which increases the risk of cruelty directed only to you. However on instagram, you are often exposed to posts which are  cruel and harmful and often not appropriate.
Sectarianism is so bad, and it entirely comes from parents/communities passing on these views to their kids.
People who struggle with self confidence and hide themselves
Snapchat is notorious for bullying, drama, leaked nudes, etc
Bullying, racist jokes because they would feel more awkward to say it in person. People are more likely to say slurs online than in person bc if u did in person u would get jumped
No,I believe that the community's have came to an understanding that all religions should be the same no difference should be made.
Bullying, people hating on a person something that has nothing to do with them
Differences in what apps are mostly used for eg. Snapchat may be more likely used for asking for photos/videos than others.
There needs to be more opportunities and liesure activities for children and teens to be at, more skateparks , more cinemas, more stuff! Teens are resorting to drugs and hard alcohol usage now because there arent enough opportunities in small protestant towns
Snapchat keeps photos saved as memories.  -
Isolated people because they won't often see how their actions can effect others - People from other countries because they are less likely to be caught
using information/photos against someone on snapchat
From my own experience, I find that the majority of people I meet from the protestant community, for example, are eager to get along with me, a Catholic. I believe that it is a small number of people who decide to maintain this prejudice, but often, it is those people who have a lot of influence and can do a considerable amount of damage.
I think most harmful behaviours would take place on Snapchat. It's fairly easy to make fake accounts, and I've been targeted by someone who made such an account. This is probably because Snapchat would delete messages after you view them, and it also tells you when you screenshot, screen record, etc. To a lesser extent, I think Twitter could be harmful, as they don't have as many precautions as other apps in censoring hate speech, violence, etc. on the platform.
People that think they can because they are behind a screen
I think that too many people care about it and I think everyone should mind their own business and not care about other peoples beliefs and treat everyone respect regardless
People that like more attention and it not a quite person
People tend to be someone there not over the phone
Personally I don't feel safe in some areas I'm not sure if anybody else would feel the same was as I do. I can't help but to feel unsafe or uneasy.
I see it as people that don't have a lot going for them in their real lives. You begin to realise the more you mature and begin to know the ways of disgusting people online that they don't have anything better to do with themselves than make others feel miserable about themselves and that's when the trolls and online bullies come in. It is disgusting that a lot of social media apps don't contribute or establish anything to do or handle with these problems. Witnessing what many people deal with day in and day out is absolutely revolting to even imagine or think of how some people can sit back and feel nothing or even hold themselves accountable for their actions.
Snapchat would have a lot to do with peoples problems to do with online bullying, threats, being blackmailed, it's caused a lot of deaths/ murders as well. The list could go on with that app it has really made a lot of peoples lives so complicated and twisted it's so sad to see. Snapchat is definitely a problem they do allow peoples accounts to be reported and banned (if you'r lucky) but it could be very rarely.
Just to be careful with who you trust on social apps. Everything on social media is too good to be true sometimes and it's not what you are made to believe a lot of the time. Be careful with who you trust in.
Sexual predators as it would be much harder to track them then in real life, in my opinion
Mostly on Snapchat as I feel like you could get friend requested by a random stranger that you don't know. A younger teen who wouldn't have thought better might fall victim to some type of predator
it's scary .. so i don't talk to people online
Not brave enough to do it in person  money and likes
The social media apps tend to not care what is posted/ take longer to remove it
I think strangers are more likely to engage in these behaviours as they believe that they are unable/ unlikely to be found
Inappropriate/ racist comments are more likely to found on Instagram and tiktok as filtering on them is alot more uncensored/ easy to get past
probably just strangers or like old men asking girls to do stuff
because there's like no consequences really and most people won't really say anything
snapchat- stalking and blackmail, accounts like lurgan leaks
People pretending to be others because they can hide their identity
I think there is far more hatred aimed at other ethnic groups instead of the traditional hatred of extreme protestant and catholic groups
They feel more protected to lie or make false claims
all social media apps specialise or priorities specific things eg snapchat sending photos and tiktok watching videos
most young people are mature and capable enough to not be effected or to stop any wrong behaviors
Those who aren't confident in person and can hide behind a screen thinking that they can keep their identity a secret.
Sexual images can be shared particularly on snapchat as most young people use it to communicate.
I dont know, maybe people who care less about the result of their actions
Scams might happen more likely on instagram than snapchat, i guess it is because you dont have to accept friend requests to receiver messages from strangers
I just think people who act poorly in person will also reflect those actions online. Conversely, people may hide behind screens to carry out acts they wouldn't otherwise do.
I think request of inappropriate photos would be more common on apps like snapchat as snaps can only be opened 2-3 times. People may send explicit photos as they ‚Äúexpire‚Äù and are more difficult to track.
I believe community relationships in Northern Ireland are quite great today. There may be instances of the opposite, but overall they are great.
People brought up in environments that normalise or re-enforce similar activities. People who may struggle mentally may also be more inclined to partake in these activities. It all stems from the difference they have from the average person, and how social media provides a "mask" for these people to act with little consequences and with alienation from their offline identity.
Each social media platform has its own culture and rules. Think of them as different nations in the world; some have stricter rules and policies than others, some have greater populations than others, and some allow for more freedom in what one can do. All these factors play a role in shaping how likely an individual to behave a certain way.  -  - The platforms that I believe are most likely to breed thes behaviours are group chat and texting communities, particularly if they are end-to-end encrypted. Does that mean they are all bad? No, they are jsut occasionally misused.
Largely, in the modern day, young people's use of social media is quite unrestricted and unmonitored, leading to cases of these behaviours. The solution shouldn't be to implement personal monitoring or stricter punishment per say; those are considerations that should be made when things really go out of control. In my opinion, the solution to disgusting behaviours online is education and maturity on these topics. Unfortunately, a lot of this is earned through experience, rather than education. I also feel that existing programs, at least in secondary schools, seem too shallow to really get at the underlying issues with why these things occur. It tells the obvious of what is right and what is wrong, never why it happens and how the perpetrator may feel.
believing in everything they see on the internet
People are very prejudiced in the neighbor hood I am currently in, I think mainly it is the younger generation are not as educated. Whereas the one I used live at everyone was friendly and it was also a mixed background
People who feel insecure, have psychological problems, trauma from the past, or they have personally experienced the problem themself then reflecting it on others, weird obsession, some may think it is fine because no one has explained to them the consequences or how dangerous or hurtful it might be. Definitely teenagers and also older creepy men and women.
Some social media apps have less security on them like age limits and confirmation of ages. The report button does not reflect the actions of those who have caused. Some social media apps do not have relevant features to prevent these behaviours from happening.
Overall, social media should filter out any unnecessary things that can cause harm to young people and just make it safe in general so everyone can use it for a better cause instead of hurting each other with it.
on some, it is easier to spread messages through group chats or "servers".
Typically teenage boys who do anti-social activity or are sexually active/explicit, teenage girls who are angry at someone, and older men who are sexually explicit.
Instagram Or snapchat, people usually message you there instead of other apps like TikTok
teenagers because it would be more encouraging for them and they would see other people doing it aswell
tiktok or instagram as more people would see it
it can be good for people to make new friends or watch entertaining or funny videos which is most likely why it is used
I think that the culture surrounding the 12th of July is incredibly intimidating, racist, sectarian and offensive. We cannot expect cross community relations to improve if we as a society condone and normalise intimidation of Catholics and Ethnic Minorities, done through the burning of flags such as the Tricolour or the Palestinian flag, the burning of election posters and slurs being written on bonfires.
Males. Many have been brainwashed by the alt right pipeline and engage in incel culture where they believe racism and misogyny is acceptable.
Snapchat has high rates of sextortion due to disappearing messages and photographs
Amongst the teenage generation of todays society i believe the relations between each religion is bitter and i feel there is no hope for relations improving unfortunately.
it has a major negative impact on teens in terms of their education, relationships, life style and mental health.
Snapchat and because its dangerous age limit should be more than 13
Think it should be taken away to be honest causes more harm than good -
Shared education, from what I have saw while not being involved has greatly improved relations between both  religious sides in Northern Ireland
Classmates, as they don't face many repercussions by saying this on social media compared to saying it to your face outside -
People gain a lot more confidence on social media, leading to them saying things they would never say directly to the persons's face
I don't really care about catholics and protestants, I am a Protestant myself and most of t he people i am friends with are catholic  -
threats on apps can be used on snap chat instagram, sharing videos or photos can be shared on the same sis and even tiktok which is the most popular app
People who are new to social media so younger people or elderly people
On snapchat and instagram also tiktok blackmailing could be more likely because people can use that to post a picture of you
To report an offensive on social media is very hard. The options given to you dont allow allow you to explain the circumstances
Inappropriate images is more likely on Snapchat and hate speech is more likely on tiktok
There is tolerance of each other but there is also a sort of misunderstanding of each other
Teenager or young adults as it's easier to express themselves online then in person
rumours spread faster with social media use
Some people may feel they may not get caught or punished if they participate with these types of behaviours online.
People may think they won't pay the consequences due to being behind a screen.
They are getting better but the youth are getting more hostile
Lonly people because they lack social abilities and the internet provides secruity and an easier way to find friends
I believe we should all aspire to make things more inclusive in our community however some people's bias and beliefs are too one sided which will always be a barrier for them
Mostly young males due to negative online influeners
Picture sharing, exploiting young people to take inappropriate pictures, blackmail, threats etc
Bullying because of their follower count
I think the community relations have went downhill recently because of the genocide in Gaza as it seems each side of our community has picked a side in that conflict. We've also seen a rise in racism as more ethnic minorities are integrating into the communities.
I think teenagers are more likely to engage in these activities as lots of teens bully and harass online, spread nudes illegally, and their minds are easily warped into believing hate speech which leads to them passing it on. Also men on social media can be very creepy and intimidating to young girls and women.
on Snapchat there is a lot of nudes and fight videos sent around because it's not public it's private and lots of people use it. Instagram causes a lot of bullying and harassment as you can message anyone even if they have a private account, you can send mean and awful things to people even if they don't want to talk to you. On facebook there is extreme amounts of hate, so much racism, misogyny, misinformation and just all over bigotry.
I personally think it is very damaging and can cause people to have very bad mental health due to things seen and said on social media. I think it is a toxic environment for young people.
Teenage boys because they are less scared to speak their mind online than in person
On snapchat you think that the chat doesnt get saved but its really easy to take a photo from another device so people are gullible about it
It should be supervised more because some people are doing really dangerous things and their parents dont even care about their wellbeings or how its effecting others wellbeings
They feel like they're masked online and powerful but would never say anything in real life
Ur could happen on Snapchat and Instagram as tou can send links and photos and can easily make a fake account to catfish
Young people who have been exposed to the same behavioursaround them, ie. Parents.
I accidently tapped 'not likely' for the question regarding whether it was likely for young people to post discriminatory or biased content, to offend other racial, religious or something groups, but I meant to press 'very likely'.
Sharing illegal material/selling illegal substances is more likely to happen on Snapchat than other apps
I think race and religion will always play a part in Northern Ireland. No matter how things have changed there will be people still not wanting to move on from the hatred of catholics and Protestants
I would say , Snapchat is the most used app by teenagers these days. Messaging , FaceTiming talking to their friends. If someone were to send a video into a group chat they would send it to other people and that would continue which is easier to send people on Snapchat in comparison to instagram
Not 100% but definitely some people more than others
because they can hide behind a screen and be anonymous
snapchat has a quick add section where you may choose to add random people which puts you at risk of getting into danger with a stranger, instagram profiles have a section where you can put links which could potentially be dangerous
I believe there is still a surprisingly and fairly large amount of prejudice between all groups ethnic, religious, etc. that action must be taken against.
Anyone and everyone who has access to a device and an account without proper understand of the dangers, emotional, physical, and mental impacts of such behaviour; which is most people on the internet if I had to say about more than or equal to 70 percent of the internet. Since anyone and everyone could do it very much easily without giving it much thought.
Apps such Instagram, Snapchat, Telegram, Discord, etc. usually don't filter content appropriate to the user (age, religion, sexually content, inhumane content such as car accidents and gore in extreme cases), along with their identity protected thus they believe they can't be held accountable to their cruel actions (which they should be). Encouraging people to commit acts such as fraud, posting illegal content, scams, extreme bullying (sometimes resulting in physical, mental, and or emotional harm and possibly suicide).
I believe more laws should be put in place to protect all people including young people, on the internet.
People who were not raised right as don't know limits
some restrictions are more lenient than others - some companies take less action compared to others
They don't know how to act appropriately
Snapchat because it tell you if they screenshot
They're super bad but nobody really cares so it's not that big of a deal.
Adult men, no particular reason for why but I'm definitely right.
Snapchats practically designed for nude-sending.
People are so stupid, and make a very big deal out of nothing, bad things can happen online, but it would be far easier to avoid if people weren't so stupid.
People who want to hurt and be hurtful towards other people also people who are on there saying they are young when actually are older
Older people pretending to be someone else to younger people,Spreading unwanted images and rumours
I dint exactly know why as I haven't expierencd anything of the sorts but I do believe that bullying etc is more likely to happen online than in real life etc as it is all behind a screen -
males who do not personally know the person they are talking to -
asking for sexual images and being more flirtatious online, i believe men especially have more confidence online with people they do not know
Much stronger than other countries' relations
Anonymity is higher in some apps than others
I think people who dislike you are more likely to stalk your socials or make false accounts and things like that
I think more attention should be payed to the reports people make on social media as usually if u report something nothing is done about it
snapchat, sharing photos of people without consent, snapchat mainly uses photos to send to people and ive seen people take photos of other people for this
Because there hiding there face when they do it and there to scared to say it to there face
People who were raised this way because they feel like they want to be powerful -
Because they feel more able to say that stuff behind a screen, and could be anonymous
TikTok because a lot of people are anonymous and Snapchat because messages disappear
Being blackmailed on apps such as instagram or WhatsApp because they don't tell the other person when you have screenshotted or screenrecorded the chat whereas Snapchat does.
Social media can be an amazing informative platform when used correctly, when people who are on it for the wrong reasons get involved it can turn disgusting, mean and malicious
More likely to have photos spread on Snapchat and more likely to be scammed for money on Instagram and TikTok.
alot of teenage boys would ask girls for explicit pictures over social media to then send them to their friends without the girls consent
snapchat is more likely to be used to send context like photos or videos without consent
No, everything is fine and people are respectful and kind to each other
They have gotten better over the past couple of year's with the Union Jack flag and tri flag being put together for the first time in years in Belfast last year
Ex boyfriend/girlfriends trying to see if you've moved on yet or seeing if your life is failing or a class mate or someone you might know trying to find stuff to use against you
Snapchat because you can make stickers and group chats with loads of random people
No not really just in my opinion people need to wise up and realise the stuff they do online can harm others and or themselves
They feel as though if it's online there won't be any real consequences
Community relations in northern Ireland in my opinion hasn't changed for the better nor for worse ever since the troubles
Anyone is likely to engage in those behaviours doesn't matter of genders
It always either involves sending nudes and slagging someone off
That everyone should let the past be the past.
I think maybe like a girl could get dirty comments on things she post because of what she posts
Snapchat perverts and on insta and tiktok hacking
People who have nothing else better to do
Jealous people or people that don't like you because they want to make themselves feel better by making you feel worse
Because people are less likely to say it to your face in person because they are too scared
slurs are thrown around like they're nothing
pedophiles and other predators, racists, homophobes etc because they are harder to find behind a screen
some social media's are easier to use and hide behind than others
I think everything that i had on my mind got told in the previous question's
such as on snapchat other people demanding inappropriate pictures or videos
people who do many things on social media do not think about the consequences
There needs to be more education of Catholicism in protestant schools as my brother (who goes to a predominantly protestant school) has very little knowledge on it, however Catholics have more extensive knowledge on Protestantism and Catholicism. That or there needs to be more/ improved religious education in protestant schools.
people who are unemployed, no longer in school, uneducated about the internet/internet safety, predators, and people who are just bored- they want some fun or have something going on in their home life and is taking it out on someone else.
more likely to be: - - sent unwanted photos on snapchat because photos can not be previewed and it is very accessible - - stalked on snapchat or instagram because location services are linked on snap and instagram is known to be one of the most unhinged apps; and their profile details encryption is not great - there have been known cases where people have been stalked because their phone number was linked to their account and hence location is linked.  - - groomed on roblox because it is known to be used by people who are under 18, predators gravitate towards it
generally, we are well educated about social media but people become desensitised after some time and eventually it becomes ignored
Just chill out lads if you're good craic and a good mate your religion is no bother to me big lad
Snapchat is a much more private app cause it deletes messages after 24 hours and such
Use private accounts and dont message random people back even if you're with your friends and think itd be funny to "mess around"
Mainly the fact that there's good work being done to bring people together, for example, my granny lives in a fold where there's people of many religions
Due to the rise of the "manosphere" which depends on young men especially being lonely and being seen as worthless. Also family issues will have an environmental effect on people, whatever gender they are
I think maybe Snapchat because of things like snap maps and saved photos
The rise of younger people aged even 7-8 having access to social media is concerning as they don't know about the dangers of social media and how damaging it can be.
men. they do not see wrong in what they do and want girls to hate their life
tiktok is a very broad app however snapchat can be so much easier for individuals to display behaviours as listed
social media use, especially in young people have completely changed our ways of life but in a negative way. social media can be fun and engaging but the way so many people worldwide use it, it has become fake,dangerous,dishonest and overall disgusting
People can just hide their identity on social media
I think things are progressing, but I think people who only attend catholic sports like the GAA and go to catholic schools don't mix with Protestants or people from other religions so are more stuck in the past and prejudiced than those who do mix.
People who have negative intentions will always have negative intentions, but sometimes these are brought to the surface more easily behind a screen, so that people who seem innocent in real life show a different side when anonymous online, also because it gives them access to communities of similar thinkers.
I think people are more likely to have pictures shared on Snapchat, also instagram under some accounts for the purpose of sharing videos of people making out etc, nothing really happens on WhatsApp or Facebook, people experience verbal violence and discrimination on twitter, instagram and TikTok
They need to be careful using social media
protestants and catholics fighting is stupid cause their not even religious anymore.
People who are chronically online or have issues and probably because they like causing other people to be upset or offended
Religiously segregated schools are one of the key things holding Northern Ireland back from becoming a harmonious society
Younger people are more likely as they see Social media as an escape from the real world where they can do whatever and receive no consequences.
Bullying is more likely to occur on Snapchat due to disappearing messages.
Some times its ok, but from my own experience even wearing a protestant school uniform and entering a catholic neighbourhood draws distaste, i have no doubt that its the same the other way around. I personally feel like relations between the protest and and catholic community has gotten worse especially amongst young people as our generation has picked up the hatred of past generations. Its no longer about religion anymore
older people maybe but i'm not exactly sure, possibly for money or their own pleasure
I believe that community relations between Catholics and Protestants will always have a set distance between eachother.
I feel like as a community people are close but could be closer, minor thins are setting people back like being afraid or unsure of the people they are surrounded by
Older men who think that they can do whatever they want without getting caught. Older women would do it too but are more secretive than men
Snapchat as it is so easy to just snap and send a pic, it could even be to the wrong person who may harass the person and demand money or more pics of them
There should be an age verification for TikTok and snapchat where you have to be over 16 and have proof of it, I don't like the fact that there are very young children using TikTok and seeing a lot of things they shouldn't, the same with snapchat it is so easy to be groomed via snapchat it is scary.
Males because there's a lot of sexist (and racist) influence online especially recently
snapchat for bullying  - instagram for pretending to be someone and making fun of them - tiktok for hurtful comments
I think anyone is more likely to engage with harassment or cyber bullying online simply because the victims or the other app users don't know your real identity.
Posting photos or videos without consent, that'll happen in major apps like TikTok, Snapchat, X, etc.
Fighting and arguing as someone people don't say things to people's faces
People who are playing too many computer games.
Catholics stay at there side of lurgan and Protestant stay on there side of lurgan -
people that are vulnerable and also children.
yes.  there's a communication amongst young people as they are on their phones all the time.  also the many young ones crossing roads on their phone and do not be looking is high.
Snapchat because that's what nearly every teenager uses so it's easier for people to share things with eachother on group chats
At least get to know someone before judging them for race or religion
Snapchat and spreading pictures of people
Use and interaction depends on groups on individuals, but mainly usage is safe among young people
I think that Northern Ireland is a very prejudice place due to history of the Troubles and I believe young people are prejudice mainly between Catholic and Protestant religions rather than other religions. I'm aware that most people I know, including myself would be prejudiced towards the opposite religion, however I'm also aware that that is not how we should think of each other as we all live in the same place so we should learn that we are more than just people from certain religions but actually all just human.
I think Snapchat would most likely be used for saving/sharing videos and photos of people or texting and harassing. I think TikTok would be used for inappropriate comments under people's posts. I think Instagram would be used for fake accounts of people or inappropriate comments.
I think it is used negatively by a lot of young people. However, I also know that it is used positively and educationally with a lot of young people, including myself, if used appropriately.
Teenagers because they are not so aware of the dangers.
young people. Maybe don't understand it is wrong.
People who have not been taught how to act appropriately online or have not been taught online safety. -
I think that the sharing of personal information is more likely on apps such as SnapChat and Instagram as lots of people use these apps. -
I hope divides lessen and we all get along better.
For example on twitter/X I believe people can be more verbally insulting whereas on apps such as tiktok you may be more likely to encounter a scam.
With more insightful information, and presentations  young people may feel more competent and safe when using social media.
I don't actually know sharing peoples things would be a big one
Stalkers can happen if you have your location on Snapchat.
vulnerable teenagers, especially 13-14 year olds who have little knowledge or experience with AI or scams
instagram because you do not have to go through the process of ‚Äòadding' a friend like you would on snapchat . most accounts are public and therefore anyone can message anyone.
People too scared to do anything in real life
Behind a screen, therefore less consequences
Sexual harassment,racist comments, hate speech
No, I will say Nothern Ireland has some parts that are very diverse and different but we all try to get along with each other and respect each other and I think that alone is enough to make a community a better place for it's people .
The type of people that I think might engage in this type of behaviour are some teenagers.
they think they can hide behind a screen and get away with saying things
photos being leaked are more likely to happen on Snapchat because of the sticker options
If this is talking about who is more likely to harass people online, I would say people who may lack empathy for other people would be more likely. if this is talking about who is more likely to engage with someone who is doing this to them, I would say someone who might be gullible and more easily fall for scams or obvious rage baiters or is a victim of bulling and is to scared to speak up about it
Instagram tends to have more hateful commenters and some people I know have been sent explicit photos on snapchat before so perhaps its more common there. you can get a lot of catfishes on discord
many young people tend to know of but don't really care about the threats of social media from what I've noticed
10-13 year olds people because they are to young to understand social media
Instagram because you can message someone without being their friend
People under the age of 13 shouldn't be on it
Usually people who are lonely, quite miserable and have nothing better to do are the ones that do that
On snapchat it is usually more photo based behaviours because that app is basically just taking photos whereas instagram would be stalking potentially because some people put their whole life on there, along with facebook
I feel social media should have some sort of restrictions or something because social media is really getting to people and it shows, it's completing rotting some people's brains and giving them these crazy complexes that they then have to live with
We are not enemies. I relate more to a unionist Protestant in east Belfast than I do with the people who have control of the nation
Individuals who experience challenges with social communication and interaction
People recognise that it's an issue but they ignore it as they don't realise exactly why or how serious it is
still obvious sectarianism towards catholics especially by unionist governments
People have more confidence behind a screen than in person
Older people that are creeps, as they are unlikely to be caught or have much attention brought upon them for what they do or have done
Discord, Snapchat and Instagram. On these platforms you can send photos and they aren't overly moderated or strict
Catfishing or spreading inappropriate pictures on snapchat
people who are more active and talkative online because they're more likely to respond to comments or leave one themselves, whereas i would only comment on posts of people i know.
i think on tiktok and snapchat people would interact with strangers more than they would on other social media platforms
I suppose the trauma from the troubles will always make Northern Ireland hold a sort of hostility
I'm not really sure but just negative people in general, people will really find anything to complain or argue or judge at
Personally I think it's just maturity and responsibly using social media and upbringing plays a big part in that
Facebook and such. As these sights have vulnerable people such as old people
I think molesting is a big behaviour online
There needs to be a cut of media used and start looking at the day to day life.
people who are jealous of others, or have personal issues with others, or just bad people in general -
I think behaviours such as these are more likely to happen on social media platforms like, Tiktok, Snapchat, and Instagram, because, strangers and people you know have easy access to your account and it is more accepted on those platforms
I think having social media too young, is far to accepted and stricter restrictions should be in place. I think that a lot of young people use social media as an outlet and that is not always a good thing as it is easier for them to bully or harass others.
My generation is the next after the Troubles, fact is I've met very biggoted people that dislike me because of where I come from and my religion, the hatred is past down to the next generation and it continues on. Although majority of the people I've met have been lovely, no issues with them.
Back when I was younger I used to spend a lot more time on my computer and PC  - From the people I've met online I've seen a lot of disgusting things, from rape, to child pornographpy, be-headings, suicide, footage of 9/11, videos of terrorists. - Some people in my school would have quite illegal videos on their phones but I wouldn't report it in regards to that.
Snapchat "deleted" their chats and images after their opened and chats closed. Instagram stays there. I rarely use the apps though, most of my communication is through Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp and Twitter.
Technology is great for certain things, but it can ruin a lot of people's lives very easily should be monitored by a parent until they think the child is capable, the internet has a lot more stuff on it that people wouldn't say/do in the real world.
People aren't aware of the results it can have on people who receive it
Snapchat because it is easy to add friends and share it publically quickly
I think people who have never been bullied or people who have never been told their behaviour is wrong or got in trouble for it are more likely to be cruel behind a screen because there is no face to face consequences to scare them away from being cruel
I personally think while social media has many positives for young people such as finding community and friends it has more negative impacts on self esteem and safety for young people especially mentally and i personally believe untill someone is 16 or 17 they shouldn't be allowed social media other than maybe YouTube or something censored
Others that don't understand fully and are not mature to understand
Videos and pictures because it is easier to take them without being caught
I think there is still a long way to go to integrate society
Young people and young adults because they are more likely to be exposed to social media
If someone is miserable in their own life
As people try to see what app most young people are on so they have more people that are easier to manipulate
People from less privileged backgrounds as perhaps they feel that they have no route out of drugs/ violence/ bullying/ paramilitary violence or they feel threatened to engage with it
Probably snapchat as the messages disappear which creates a sense of anominity
I believe cross community projects are highly beneficial, such as the ulster project who i recommend to everyone.
hackers asked to do so or classmates jealous of u
People who want more money because they can try steal it
It's easier done on some rather than others
People who are easily influenced by peer pressure
It's harder to figure out who the person is and are more likely to get away with it
Trolling and spam messaging is very likely on discord due to the ability to have multiple alt accounts, a lot of harassment on tik tok from people not liking the content of someone's video
The use of social media is having a growing negative effect on young people from exposure to things they shouldn't see and others being racist, sexist, controling etc
Young boys as they want to seem cooler and are generally undereducated
Different social media apps are used for different things also have different features
What i have noticed is that the majority of people who say racist, sexist, inappropriate or disrespectful things are usually teeenage boys who are usually white as they dong have a culture to understand racism and as males they often believe disrespectful sexual jokes are 'normal' or 'funny' rather that hurtful and disgusting. Occasionally a girl eho is influenced by these young boys join in.
People may believe that because they are behind a screen they are safe because no one will care enough to find them in person to do anything about their actions online. Usually these people would be the ones in real life to deny their actions or be too embarrassed to take accountability
People honestly just dont care. If you were to go on TikTok and open your for you page, say the first video that comes up is discriminatory content about how Indian people are dirty and unattractive. The entire comment section will be agreeing with the video and laughing along. Then you scroll down and the video is a 'hopecore' about how kindness is key and those same people will be in the comment section acting as if they were the reincarnation of Jesus Christ himself and spreading love. Thats the unfortunate reality of teenagers today, they dont care about how their words hurt and their actions are wrong and this is all on their digital footprint because it isnt affecting them so it doesn't matter.
no one knows who they are so they can say whatever they want
Really teach young people about the dangers, don't try to soften the truth of what can happen on social medias. And showing young people the consequences of what can really happen on social medias
More pielly for stalkers and unwanted pictures to be seen and shered
I think there will always be distaste between protestants and catholics as they are all stuck in the past and they refuse to move forwards and stay closed minded.
Males in general especially teenage boys because most of them are extremely immature and silly sods who do not know when to stop and think it's funny to be horrible people
Because on Snapchat messages dissappear and you will also know if any chats are screenshoted
I think there should be more policing of social media and the things that people say and post
People brought up in households without a support system.
Photos being exchanged are more likely to happen on snapchat
Some apps have better security than others
Careless people who don't care about the consequences of their actions
Definitely on Snapchat many young people get harassed on it in different ways they do on Instagram a lot as well but loads of young people use Snapchat mostly these days
Young people are too immature online these days
snapchat allows stickers which can be taken from a snap and shared with others
Not the best. at least a few riots every year up in Creggan. - The derry City f.C Ultras sing pro IRA songs
I think that community relations in Northern Ireland is strained due to people letting their generational hate decide how they feel about someone else's religion, race or even gender
Maybe someone who hasn't been taught how harmful these things can be, some may just see it as a harmless joke when it really isn't
I think young people forget the dangers of social media because ‚Äòit could never happen to them' or ‚Äòthat's just something you see on tv'.
Boys between the age of 15-17 due to them trying to be ‚Äòcool' in front of their friends
Bullying is more likely to happen as more people have become more judgmental
I mean relations will improve ig. It's not like ik anyone who actually hates protestants. Except for like one super indoctrinated person,I feel like we should just stop doing bad thibgs to eachother. Sorry if that's a hot take but you won't get catholics to like u by burning tricolour and vice versa. I mean our parents all loved through the troubles and we hear all those stories so we can't be expected to all hold hands in forgiveness but when our generation are having their own kids it probably won't be as bad I guess. Idk my frontal lobe isn't developed yet my biggest issue in like isn't cross community relations it's the shoes I baught on vinted. :/
BOYS. Oh my god little boys are terrible. My friends ex was so weird and now he's spreading lies that she was crazy. We know a guy who tries to chat up any girl within 5 feet. And it's practically common for young girls to recieve inappropriate images from boys,like its accepted the guys just do that now
People always recieve nudes on snapchat ig  - I feel like Instagram can be common too but snapchat would be my top offender
I'm not a great source cuz I'm very sheltered ig. But a huge issue that people don't see is DISCORD. It's used less commonly but it's incredibly easy to be groomed on discord like there's an abundance of creeps on there and like autistic or alternative teenagers can end up on discord. A lot of mentally ill people use it too and they're vulnerable to that kind of thing. Like I could spend 2 minutes in the wrong server and some dude is sending me sexual images of people and asking me to 'rate' them. Sorry for the rant but I wonder how discord gets overlooked sometimes
Please be more respectful towards each other, one of my best friends got harassed the other day in belfast by quite a scary woman who was stalking us
people who have been blackmailed to do so, or have been forced against their wishes
snapchat, u can take a photo of anything and sometimes people don't even notice
spreading indecent images are more likely to happen on snapchat because how easy it is and how people can make fake accounts.
people putting pictures of you or screen shots of your chats on their snapchat or instagram stories. -
Think there are no consequences behind a screen.
Security restrictions and amount of people using the app
People would be more easily manipulated into doing silly tasks or would maybe not understand what they're doing would affect them negatively
I believe that there are more groomers or scammers on different apps apps that are mainly used by children or women
We play protestant Vs catholic football games. Good craic
Just some people I didn't mean like due to anything just some people are assholes
I think majority of people are civil with people being catholic or Protestant but some people are completed again those who are opposite to them.
Old lonely creepy men because there insecure a woman would not go near them in real life so they either pretend to be someone there not or blackmail as a sense of control.
I think social media is good and fun but with many negatives as some people ‚Äòabuse' its use
The younger the person is the less they tend to care about ethic communities in my opinion
snapchat because for example their reporting system may be worse then other apps such as instagram with snaochat being used more for socializing
People who's parents haven't talked to them about the dangers of social media and how to use it safely.
Sharing photos and videos as when someone put a photo on social media is will always be there
More properly integrated schools instead of mostly prod or catholic
i think that they're all mostly even and nothing prejudice
People that experience bully within school as they may feel the need to lash out to someone or look for a way to get back at someone
Teenage boys because they think its cool to do so.
Snapchat, because its more personal links, like the whole school likely has each other added on the app.
Seems to be more of an issue in schools over the outside world.  - Workshops etc have all been provided but some students lack maturity and are simply disrespectful at times but this is not a regular occurrence
people tend to think that these behaviours are hidden on a phone and that it's okay - People also feel more confident saying things online because they aren't directly face to face
I think unwanted pictures can be shared and accessed much easier on snapchat than instagram
It is consuming young people between body image and bullying etc - Social media sets standards as to how you should look and act.
I sometimes feel a bit wary of paramilitary presence in my area and feel unsafe walking in that area, particularly at night.
Some people who have been influenced by far right beliefs can be more likely.
personally, I think that community relations in northern Ireland are stronger than they have ever been before. All towns and villages are open and welcoming to everyone and encourage community involvement as a way to express all different cultures and religions.
people who have been bullied in person I think are more likely to harass or bully someone online as they cab hide behind a screen. also, someone who is depressed and wants to bring others down.
most young people who use social media are using t only for entertainment purposes. however there are others who try to take advantage of young people as they probably have nothing else to do.
I don't know how to answer this question
People who feel they can get away with anything online due to the anonymity
Blackmail would be more likely on private messaging apps, whereas hate speech esc behaviours may be more prominent on apps where it can be pushed to the largest audience, like Twitter or TikTok
Sharing of pictures etc on snapchat because if not saved in chat they disappear
verbal abuse as u can text on some or post
I think that social media use should be restricted until these people get older. Exposure to social media can lead to addictions like pornography which can change people's behaviours and mindsets.
They are able to stay anonymous  - It's not face to face, it's less personal
I still feel its divided as you can easily tell what parts of town are protestant and what are catholic
videos and photos are more likely to be sent on snapchat
Northern Ireland has grown to have diversity over the last 40 year and I think out of a personal opinion I think it all depends on what part of Northern Ireland that you live in because there is always certain part worse than others
Spend far too much of their life wasting away on Snapchat TikTok Instagram FaceBook Discord Twitch and YouTube when they could be doing much Better things with their time our new Generation is being called the anxious and depressed generation of young people because of the amount of young people looked in a room with a SmartPhone with full access to the internet
Sharing photos unwanted on Instagram and Snapchat into groups etc
Living in a rural community there is not much opportunity to make relation with other religions
More likely to be asked for nudes etc. on Snapchat. More likely to be asked for financial or personal information on Instagram.
I think it should be under parents protection until at the right age to take care of the social media platforms
some young people are more likely to as they are confident in themselves and are not scared of the consequences of bad behaviour online due to being behind a screen  -
People may feel they have free will to do whatever they like online and bully people or harass them, due to it not being in person they think that it's okay to do it online because there not facing them face to face.
People who are looking for money or are not mentally in a positive state of mind and therefore rely on these behaviours for amusement.
Blackmailing, scamming, bullying and stalking because it's easier for people to obtain private information and it's easier for people to fake identities and relationships.
People who are insensitive and unkind because they don't care for other people's feelings - People who are uneducated or have been brought up with misinformation because they hold beliefs that are untrue
Some social media apps are less strict on what users can post, allowing people to post worse things on certain social media apps
Some communities have zero tolerance for mixing and it forces division between many groups and communities
More young people because they are majority of the people online and able to make comments and opinions that are more harsh
Because it is a wider platform and more unlikely to be caught
It's a very large platform and loads of censored content can be shared and commented on
I think it's fine to talk to people from other religions but I personally wouldn't go out of my way, it doesn't matter if I know you first though
Adult men, they are horny or feeling some other disgusting feeling and want to take it out on somebody else and take advantage of the most vulnerable, a young person
On Snapchat once you open something it is gone unless you save it, I have been sent a lot on it.
They think they're protected as people don't know their real identity on the internet and they can hide from consequences of what they say
Snapchat has worse moderation than Instagram, and I sometimes see Snapchat stories promoting vape sellers to young teenagers
Areas are split off like west and east belfast
People who don't go outside to feel involved online
People use it too much and waste their lives
I feel as though your religion/beliefs really have an affect as to how you are treated in some areas.
scammers - they never know when to stop and I feel enough isn't done to stop them.
I feel like it's not just young people, older people are doing most of the damage and I feel young people are targeted.
On Snapchat, twitter and instagram there's more risk of things spreading
probably snobby people who think they are unstoppable due to the fact that they are online and not in person
mostly grooming, harassing, doxing all of that usually on apps like discord and twitter
People who are stupid and fall for thinks easily or even people who want attention  -
Most likely to happen on Snapchat because that's what everyone uses
People aren't aware how easy photos on Snapchat can be saved or used
sharing photos of someone is more likely to happen on snapchat because you could send it into a group chat with lots of other people and it could get dent on from there
Snapchat sending unwanted videos or forwarding unwanted material
Feel it's easier and more time to do do it
Photos and videos spread on Snapchat and WhatsApp
People whos parents or adults around d them have not spent enough time teaching them about being responsible
Information about others posted on Snapchat or Instagram
Without the right education it is very harming
More sexting on Snapchat because it is convenient.
Overall relations are good however I still feel like there is tension between different groups
People who are given too much freedom on social media
I feel that with Snapchat it is more likely to happen as any messages or photos sent will be deleted after a certain amount of time
I think many young people send texts or photos without considering the conciquences
Men because it is normalised for them to act that way
Young people spend too much time on social media
They're really unsteady sometimes and it's easy to get stuck in specific mindsets
Political accounts, it's what gets them views and gives them a sense of moral superiority
Every school should be integrated with different ethnic backgrounds.
TIK TOK/FACEBOOK AS MORE OF MY PEERS USE THIS
SOME PEOPLE HAVE LESS MORALS THAN OTHERS
SOME SOCIAL MEDIA APPS HAVE LESS STRICT GUIDLEINES
Anyone. Everyone seems to think it's okay or they won't be caught if they do these things behind a screen
Selling illegal stuff cause it's very common these days
maybe people who spend more time on social media, as they will be exposed to more information
sharing of personal information on snapchat, because most people use snapchat and it is easier to text on it
anyone because many feel that if they are behind a screen they can remain anonymous and less likely to be caught out. they may feel it is alright to be racist, sexist or a bully towards a person because they are less likely to meet them in real life.
There needs to be more awareness of what young people can be capable off online negatively. it doesn't matter if you are young, old, or belong to any race or religion, if you are on a social media platform and don't have any awareness of the impact of your actions you are capable of ruining a person's life.
Because they are behind a screen and feel safer to hate
People need to realise were all humans made of the same skin and bones and get on together
People think because they are behind a screen - They are safe and in real life they dont have the - Guts to do it and know what they're doing is wrong so cant do it in person
Sharing of Videos and Photos is - More likely on snapchat as more young people use snapchat as a main social media compared to instagram
Social Media is not always used for bad and its only a very small percentage which use it for bad
I believe the main drivers of conflict, such as discrimination towards the catholic community, are no longer as pressing in our society. I am quite optimistic about cross community relations in the future.
Malicious people who only care about money.
I feel like that sort of thing only happens on more message based social media like Instagram, dating apps or to a lesser degree Snapchat.
It is clear that social media has had an incredible negative effect among young people. For example feelings isolation, anger or depression; short form content and addiction to dopamine making people less intelligent; and wasting a lot of time in the key developmental years of someone's life.
people who are in an environment where other people do the same so they think its ok/normal or they get pressured into doing it -
sharing of photos on snapchat is more likely than instagram or tiktok as that is one of its main uses
People who engage in this behaviour often take in similar content online and assume it is alright to do the same.
On certain social media apps it is easier to share videos and images but also it is more common to have individual people to message on these apps.
Those who are lonely, who have been bullied themselves, no presence of parents - father or mother figure
Snapchat, messages can be deleted after 24hrs so evidence can be destroyed automatically
It can be dangerous - better measures should be put in place to protect young people within the apps themselves
I believe it would be very beneficial for us as a society to not prejudice someone by their religion. As a catholic I have grown up being taught to be cautious and steer clear of protestant areas because of the risks that could put me into danger simply because I am catholic, and I am sure protestants are raised being taught the same thing about catholics. We should never feel unsafe in a place/town in our home because of our religious beliefs and I strongly believe we need to make a difference to this because no one deserves to be at risk because of their religon.
I don't know if this is what the question meant but: I know people in my school who are horrible and have been raised badly and have spread sexual rumours/manipulated girls. These people are more likely to engage in worse behaviour (like on social media) if someone doesn't stop them
I think they are less likely to be spread on snapchat because snapchat notifies you if someone screenshots/saves/downloads your photo/message/etc. If it was on instagram you would not be notfied and therefore it would be easier to spread because you aren't aware of it
I think it's influencing unnecessary things like insecurities especially in girls because of the unrealistic beauty standards constantly being thrown in our faces. Young people are spending more and more time on their phones which is decreasing mental health and motivation
I feel like many people make it a competition on what religion is better and I feel like its very childish
I feel girls are more likely to spread rumours and cause hassle online, as most males wont care what is said online and girls will do it for bullying
sending images in a groupchat for friendly banter with friends
Most things that are done are not to be took to heart, there is a point where things aren't a joke and people need to learn when its a joke or not. When teachers intervene with "Online Bullying" 90% of the time there opinions are not correct.
relations are definitely improving but tensions will always be there.
Instagram and TikTok because everyone is on these apps at the minute
Social media is the biggest evil for young people
I think that now compared to the past people don't really care about people's religion as much, but it's always going to be something that affects the community given the countries history
I think boys are more likely to do these types of things, as even if they have not experienced it they do not hear often about other boys going through it as often as girls experience it or hear about other girls experiencing it
I think they're good the way they are now but there's alot we could be doing different
In my personal experience it's mostly been men, I am aware women can do it as well though. They do it online because it can be done and you stay anonymous so no consequences catch them
Blackmailing can happen on Snapchat because if you send people things they'll save it and threaten to leak it probably
I feel Christianity in NI has been used to try reason for violence when the Bible tells us to love one another.
We just usually take everything as a joke, not realising the seriousness for the situation
I don't believe children under the age of 13 sound be aloud Snapchat I think it is an app where either you can chat with your friends.Or things can go wrong and I know from personal experience that there are things on there that I shouldn't of been seeing,and that I would not like my younger sister to see like I did at her age.I think it is too easy for a child to be manipulated on social media eg a young girl thinking she is chatting to another young boy when it is really a grown man hiding behind a fake account
you dont feel the consequences, its easier, can be deleted
Its less likely to share something in snapchat as you get banned easily but its easier on other apps
It is easier to talk about people behind a screen rather than to their face
to get back at someone. As they might feel less scared to say something abusive to someone through a screen rather than in person
I think it is quite unrestricted to young people -
Community relations between different religions needs a lot of work, intergration is key to keeping peace, but we do need to reflect that both Catholic and Protestant extremists have comitted horrible acts.
People who wish to gain things like money and perhaps explicit photographs.
There are apps that make it easier to share photos with knowledge and or consequence so it is my belief that these people would use these apps.
There needs to be further education on how to remain safe on social media to improve things.
Snapchat as you don't always know the age of someone who adds you
it would be nice if we could all live together as equals
pedophiles, as you can hide easier online and it feels less real
it has both its positive and negative aspects
snapchat as it's a lot more accessible to send and delete things alongside adding people and unadding , something about it feels more private and secure than instagram or tiktok but idk why
I think people who generally have more outgoing/bold personalities would be more likely to, rather than someone who is more quiet/introverted.
I think it would be easier on snapchat, because you can send photos or videos to select people. Over apps like instagram, a post is usually visible to everybody or a general group of people.
I think social media adds extra pressure to young people. Whether that's pressure just to use a certain app, or if it's pressure to post or be active on that app. Personally I really hate snapchat and I find no use in it, but I got it anyway because I felt there was a certain pressure to have it like everyone else.
people who affiliate with bad crowds like gangs -
snapchat because people use it to send images of themselves more often than they do on the likes of whatsapp or facebook etc
I believe boys would engage more in these behaviours as statistics show it is mostly boys that do this behaviour than girls.
Forcing to send inappropriate images is more likely to happen on snapchat as it is easier for people to find you on snapchat rather than any other social media app.
Tbuc has helped me improve my views on this topic
The advice given to us through workshops with police and school is not helpful
Younger people, as they may not have been taught
People who are depressed and have nothing better to do with their time and are top afraid to confront people in real life
Bullies, as they believe it'll make them feel happy because their lives are sad enough
Places like Snapchat and Instagram, as they can easily save the photo and/or messages and upload them -
People in different relations treat people in other relations bad because that's part of the ‚Äònorm' in Northern Ireland, and they feel it is because it should be only Catholics here.
A younger audience would be more keen to engage in these behaviours if they have been brought up on social media since they were babies, which causes them to be very immature and chronically online. Older people too that may be perverted or weird in real life, may also choose to seek out social media to engage in these behaviours because they can hide behind a screen and do it without the repercussions of being caught.
Snapchat would most likely have behaviours such as pedophiles asking for inappropriate images or saying inappropriate stuff due to them being unable to get caught as they can lie about their age and where they live
I personally think that younger people shouldn't be allowed on every platform on social media, and it should be limited due to the stuff that is posted on it nowadays and they should have restrictions to what they can see which all depends on the parent, which means the parent should stand up and look out for their children
The community relations currently are stable. However as previously stated the relations may be deteriorating.
People who are more "chronically online" for want of a better description. I believe that these people are more susceptible and mainly more at risk of committing online crimes.
I believe that apps such as snap-chat are at a lesser risk of being used for these crimes, this is because they report any screenshots that people will take. Other apps such as telegram or discord don't report these screenshots and must be more used for these crimes.
Social Media is an extremely influential place for these younger people. This is not very good as people are usually very gullible around this age and are able to have their minds twisted and warped by these social media platforms.
Probably people who are not very confident
Anyone will offensive opinions and views  - Because you can hide your identity online
Sharing photos as some apps are fast and popular
sexual predators on snapchat because it's so so easy to add someone and start chatting to them
Teenage boys ans girls due to the way they are brought up nowadays.
I hope there will be more spaces for community and more people who actually feel part of a community in the future
I don't know how likely they are to do certain behaviours because it depends on a case by case basis I think
people need to get over themselfs at the end of the day everyone is human
because they want more attention from  - others
because people and say things behind a screen then in person
posting photos without your permission would most likely be posted on snapchat or tiktok.
Younger people, because they have been brought up on social media
Snap chat can't be screenshot with out the person knowing
Adults because I've seen a lot of posts of people trying meet up with kids
online violence on snapchat as the messages dissapear and leave zero to very few proof
The person cannot find you or know you -
Blackmail because people can take pictures
picture sharing because it's easy to do - online
Because people aren't scared when they are behind a screen
Sending inappropriate photos would be found on snapchat and finding violent videos would be found on twitter
People who are old and can target younger children online
I think it's appalling that there is still such a barrier between Protestants and Catholics and they then pass that hatred for 1 another onto their children and then it so instilled into their children aswell.
Because people online aren't afraid of the consequences because you could be anyone online. -
Because on snapchat the messages disappear so if someone says something hurtful it will eventually dissappear.
i believe it is disrespectful of protestants to claim their culture is just disrespecting another. burning tricolours is not culture, it is cruel -
bullying and blackmailing is probablhy more likely to happen on snapchat
Snapchat because people are degenerates.
People that do similar things outside of online spaces as they are already doing it to people in person.
Someone with a worse upbringing than some others
Snapchat because everyone has it and it is the easiest way to share images to other people
It may be easier for people to personally direct these behaviours towards people on apps like snapchat or whatsapp than more public apps like tiktok or instagram that would aim to reach and harm a wider audience of people.
People who are false, people who are self centred and people who are emotionally immature.
It is easier to spread around stuff on snapchat or whatsapp because those apps were designed to be message apps. Snapchat specifically is the more likely app for these behaviours to occur as they delete your chats after they are viewed/24 hours after they are viewed meaning its either to cover your tracks.
People that are less educated about the internet.
Snapchat as it is very easy to send and save photos and videos.
It's not very good for us as it is ruining the mental health of many young people
snapchat is a more private app, people can't see who your friends with therefor making it easier to share sexual pictures or information about someone without anyone knowing who it actually is
As on apps such as snapchat the messages delete. So many people think they can say whatever they want
Lonely Men who are angry they can't find a partner and take it out on others
Sharing inappropriate videos and bullying on Snapchat and Tiktok because it is harder to be traced bsck
It is addictive and can make u feel negatively about yourself
Teenage boys becouse they are thinking they can treat girls this way
People who don't often go out or have more confidence to say things over the phone rather than in person.
Snapchat is more dangerous for people to ask for indecent pictures.
I would say that social media can be highly addictive and not a nice place to be in due to these behaviors. However social media can be a joyful place as people can show their true self in many different ways.
People treat others the same as they have been treated, I know lots of people from other religions who have been very kind to me,however i have met more who have been unkind
Seen to be less consequences, be it physically or in a result of the action. Also there is less nerves as it can be "deleted"
Snapchat is where images or information is shared in which you typically do not want, nearly always in a negative way. - Instagram is just where people stalk you or take photos of you to use with malicious intent. -
It doesn't really do much well to be honest
Because people don't know you online and don't know how it personally affects you.
People are more likely to send photos around on snapchat rather than insta because they know the people on snapchat and after seen it deletes.
you are able to talk to anyone and everyone on apps such as snapchat and you may not know them
I believe relations between the two communities will improve a substantial amount in the next decade or two however I don't believe much change will happen in the next 5 years.
I think young people are much more likely to behave like this due to the fact that they don't know the consequences of what they do online.
The sending of images with no consent of the owner would be the most common behaviour on Snapchat
Older men as they think it's easy to hide behind a screen
The relations between communities in the North of Ireland (between catholics and Protestants specifically) are still very divided. I know from personal experiences that I feel very intimidated when going to areas where union jacks are hanging from every lamp post and wall possible in the town. I tend to never stop in them if I'm ever wearing GAA gear as it's been drilled into me since I was young the harassment I could and have faced because of this. There is still so much improvement to be made, and personally this should start with other cultures not forcing their beliefs down each others throats.
People who have recently had a falling out with someone, and a way to get back at them is to post horrible things on social media about said person. It's because they're a coward and can't say things like that to the person in real life.
Some social media apps have stricter rules and better moderation than others. Twitter( X ) for example has horrible moderation and virtually everything can be posted on there.
Social media is the way we all communicate now either through videos, dMs or likes. Your worth as a young person is dictated by your social media presence, followers etc..
I THINK THAT NOWADAYS CATHOLICS AND PROTESTANTS ARE BECING LESS SEGREGATED IN SOME AREAS
Often bullying occurs only eg group chats are made behind someone's back in order to make fun of them
People who are insecure and are too scared to say anything in person
Sharing images will be more common on snapchat, sexist activity will be more common on twitter
screenshots of conversations being sent about on snapchat, catfishing and blackmailing on snapchat and instagram
In my opinion, i believe teenage boys would as i from experience they are a lot more rude to me personally and i just feel they would engage in these activities.
I believe blackmailing and sending stuff around is a lot more common on snapchat while leaking someone's info may be more common on twitter
I believe a lot of young people my age don't exactly use social media for good use.
Key board warriors feared of people in real life
People who maybe are too shy to say no or get encouraged easily. -
Snapchat because they can send things without another individual knowing
Because there is no immediate consequence as they are hidden behind a screen
People tend to not think twice about what they say
I feel like people feel more confident to act negatively online because they think that they won't have to face any consequences. -
I feel like some apps are safer than others. For example on tiktok, people can't send direct pictures to others unlike snapchat. I don't think snapchat has a lot of rules or guidelines about inappropriate images or videos and people abuse this and share harmful, distressing or unwanted images and videos to others. -
Personally, I think that when it comes to social media, I know how to keep myself safe. I believe that keeping safe on social media as a teen is common sense, however there may be other teens out there who have not been exposed to online safety and may not know how to keep themselves safe online. I think that social media has been a great deal to our generation. I'd like to think that social media has mostly impacted me positively as I have learnt many things (such as growing up ie. puberty and how some young adults online share how they overcome the difficulties that teens face today) that schools or parents usually don't teach to teens. However, there are definitely downsides to social media. Now that I have my GCSEs exams going on, I find it difficult to motivate myself to get off social media and revise. Social media is no doubt addictive and has its negative impacts on everybody.
People think there identity is hidden and are to scared to say things to my face or threaten me but when they are next to me they are all scared
Teanages are always using apps such as Snapchat snd seending photos for example girl sending mirror pictures in bikinis then they get used to black mail them
Those going through a hard time in life, they may do said actions to divert attention from themselves/numb the pain (seeing other people go through hard times may make them feel as if what they're going through is normal), or haven't properly been taught about what kind of stuff is right vs wrong on the internet. There are more reasons, but these are two common ones.
Pattern recognition; for example, I don't have Snapchat and Instagram, but my friends do and they say that 'shroom' selling and hacked accounts are common, whereas on platforms like WhatsApp, they're not.
Social media is used too much my adolescents
People who haven't been taught the dangers of being on social media as they haven't been taught what is right and wrong
They should be taught the dangers and what the wrongs and the rights are on social media. They should also be told what to do if they feel something wrong is happening
I feel like its idiotic the 'hatred' between catholic and protestants, since we are all people that just should stop hating others for what their religion has done in the past. I'm not saying that we should forget/overlook the historical events but I'm saying blaming a person for what their religion did in the past is just plain idiotic and closeminded
they're are so many ways to hide your identity, also online people are more likely to do stuff online since there isn't any repercussions. However if they where to do it in real life they would be defiantly be to scared to do so.
on snapchat if someone sends like something inappropriate, most likely someone will save it, share it, and repeat if it gets shared so much, I don't think anyone would have any idea who saved it first.
snapchat because you can send things without people knowing
people in primary school should not be allowed access to social media
If people are brought up thinking it's okay then I think they are then more likely to engage in the same activities
I think they are more likely to happen on Snapchat cause unless the chats or snaps are saved they disappear
Apps like TikTok and instagram are likely to engage in harmful behaviours like cyber bullying, harassing, etc. due to them being normalised so much
People trying to gain some sort of benefit such as money so scammers and hackers
Apps like WhatsApp and Twitter by people placing links on Twitter and people texting you and sending links through whatsapp
I'm not a very biased person as I hate being one sided
People who may have no friends offline or they may be bullied offline
Bullying or sending gore videos are more likely to happen on Instagram and some people may even be molested through discord
Although social media may have downsides it still helps them make friends
Teenage boys because I'm not sure I just think they're stupid and don't care about what they do for example sending around a girls nudes or something. I also think maybe older men because there seems to be a lot of them these days that ask for stuff online
People are more likely to send explicit pictures on Snapchat I'm not sure why it's just the app we all use these days
lonely people because they enjoy online attention since they get none in real life
snapchat because things ‚Äúdelete‚Äù after
I currently don't have any opinion on community relations within Northern Ireland
I think that on Snapchat it is more likely for your pictures to be shown to others without your consent and on Tiktok I think it is more likely for a fake account to be made mocking your identity
People who do illegal activities for example drugs because they like to put everyone else down as they didn't succeed in life.
Bullying because your able to hide behind a screen.
People in which have grew up in a bad household environment, or people in which are going through their own problems are likely to engage in these behaviours.
Some social media apps have a built in camera in which can always be abused by people to reflect a bad image upon someone.
Always think about before you say anything
I think we should not mix in religious conventions such as parades or catholic sport.
People with a distressing back round as they want to release their stress
Boys and men asking girls to send them inappropriate pictures or videos  - This mostly happens on Snapchat
people who don't think there will be consequences on social media
People who are lonely because it makes them feel special
Sharing of photos is more likely to happen on snapchat as it is very easy to do so
older people who are unaware of the dangers -  -
Because they don't have to speak in person
Mentally unwell persons and people who are in tough situations financially
Anonymous people, less liklihood of punishment's
Well, I know many people my age who make insensitive 'jokes' about different communities. Let's just say that if their digital footprints got leaked they are not getting employed.  -  - I should be saying more but I am struggling to articulate myself properly. I'm assuming the main aspect of the 'community relations' section is about the problem of discrimination between the different denominations of Christianity. However I have never experienced this type of discrimination so I don't have much to say. The area where I live is nice and I feel like I am very privileged.  -  - That's all I can think of. I hope this was helpful! :)   -
Okay so honestly anyone can participate in types of negative behaviour online. They're safe behind a screen so why would there be a consequence? That's their mindset. -   - But there are also types of people who are noticeably more likely to behave poorly, for example:  - Young people who grow up around toxic influences could copy the bad behaviors they see and not think or care about the consequences.  - There are many adults who are scammers and/or manipulators who often take advantage of how easy it is to spread lies and cause harm online.  - Also many people create and post rage-bait content to upset people on purpose for clicks and attention. Views equal profit and some people don't care about how they get that.  -  - However like I said at the start, anyone could engage in negative behaviour online, even if they realise it or not.  - Most of the time the person is aware of what they're doing, but they just don't care.
Well the social media apps I use the most tend to be less toxic. They focus more on content-sharing (YouTube), private messaging (WhatsApp) and creative inspiration (Pinterest) so I don't see as much direct negativity. Communities of like-minded people find each other and spread positivity more often.  -  - However apps like Snapchat, Instagram, TikTok and X(Twitter) seem to have more harmful behaviour. Probably because: - There are a lot of young users, who don't think or care about the content they post and the consequences. -  - There are many toxic trends and lots of 'brain rot' content designed purely for views, even if the message is harmful. -  - There are many political arguments and outrage posts which lead to hate speech or misinformation -   - Also private messaging features are easily used for bullying, harassment and/or sharing inappropriate images. -  - Those apps are designed for fast content with big audiences and no accountability so obviously it's easier for negative behaviour to spread. -  - It's especially damaging for young people, who are still figuring out their identity and may be more vulnerable to pressure, manipulation or harmful trends. Being different means it's likely you'll be bullied.  -  - Hopefully this helps. :)  -
I don't think social media is inherently bad, there are just many harmful individuals and a lot of toxic content which makes it a more negative space for some users. -  - Unfortunately, these individuals are not going away anytime soon so young people should be trying to avoid engaging with harmful content in anyway. The most effective approach is to ignore it.  -  - Without views or engagement, these people will not profit from promoting negativity.  -
Shared education does nothing but further highlight the current segregation of catholics and Protestants. Not enough effort is being made to create change in our generation and rebuild the bridges that were destroyed from the troubles.
Men, because social media harassment can be easier to get away with, easier to hide, and easier to move on from
Harassment of women, money scams. Because people are easier to be taken advantage of in this situation, it is more private so the victim does not consult anyone else in their decision who may be able to tell them this is a scam but because it is online it is much more secretive
It's very location based , certain areas both republican and loyalist I would stay clear of . However majority of my area is safe
Anyone who lacks irl relationships and thereby replaces these with those online will be predisposed to engaging in such behaviours due to lack of physical experience/discipline
Unwanted pics and vids would be more common place on Snapchat as opposed to anything else as it's simply much more accessible (camera wise)
Young people , mainly my generation , grew up with the internet and social media. It's like a second nature to us whether detecting scams or dealing with unwanted behaviours that we find on the internet
some decisions made regarding celebrations are not equal and
i think people are more confident behind social media
it distracts from homework but not in school
Men both young and old because they do it in person as well (more often) and feel like they can get away with it on social media
Asking fro photos, inappropriate texts, more things being shared and passed around. People think they have the power to get away with it and with less consequences
More young people should speak out about it rather than teachers or other members of authority as it lends more credibility
People with a bad upbringing, possibly due to lack of proper discipline, love and lack of proper connection with others
Blackmail on Snapchat would be very likely due to the ability of being able to take inappropriate pictures very easily
Young boys and men as they feel they have more authority
people who think they can get away with it because it is not in person.
instagram and snapchat because you can send each other pictures
Photos being leaked on Snapchat rather to instagram as them are more strict
I think in terms of difference of religion, relations between Protestants and catholics will not improve soon unless something drastic changes
People unhappy in their own lives, or teenage boys
Young people today use it too much and it can definitely affect teenagers' mental health negatively
I think it's because people don't have to face the same consequences when something is done online. There isn't as much fear doing it to a screen, than to someone's face.
Cyberbullying because others find joy in it and is very annoying
People and are addicted to social media and it controls their lifd
People who have been brought up in certain areas may be more likely to take part in risky activities as it is more normalised for them.
ppl in school cause they think it's funny
snapchat cause majority of people use it and people tend to share more personal images there
It remains fragile at times of the year and unfortunately there is a lack of tolerance on occasions due to generational sectarian beliefs
People who have not been educated on what is right and wrong to share on social media and how to navigate it safely by remembering everyone on it are real people with feelings.
As Social media is growing in popularity among our age group I think it's more important now than ever to ensure that all young people are given information on the right and wrong things to do on Social media and procedures put in place to protect victims of issues on Social media and to prevent them from happening as often.
People taht know you because if you have done something wrong they can hold that against you, but at the same time could be an adult online trying to blackmail or manipulate a young person
Snapchat because you can send photos,call,text,videos and add whoever on it
Yes, young people have so many free will on the internet and social media and we can access more then anything , such a illegal websites and sites with nudity
Classmates who have no common sense or decency
Snapchat is really bad for obscene images
Young people because they feel like there are no consequences online
I don't have snapchat but i think it's very common for sexual photos etc and unwanted photos of others because of the 'privacy' of it
I think people act differently online, and lots of people i know get into online relationships. I don't think these are real relationships and i think this is a scary thing to see around me.
Stupid people, have no other way to have fun, or think it's funny when with friends
Cyberbullying, on weaker people (without friends etc)
Young people have not been taught how to use social media properly/effectively
People who spend more time on social media and stay up late on it
Snapchat is worse for people pressuring photos etc
men. social media can unfortunately provide them with a safe space for them to prey on younger girls or sometimes younger boys.
it is more likely for grooming to happen on social media apps with a private/direct message feature, such as discord or snapchat.
over the years, more young people have shown racist, homophobic, transphobic and sexist behaviours.
Young boys because they think it's funny and young girls who bully people
Snapchat, pictures and messages disappear so they think it's gone.
Young people aren't as mature and thoughtful as elders -
Those who lack attention, as well as those who are bored.
WhatsApp and Facebook are more formal compared to the likes of, Snapchat, instagram, twitter ect.
No thank you, but I'm hoping to see more events to unite each other.
I don't understand this question, some of my friends I guess.
Snapchat, my friends take pictures of me even if dont want it and sent it to random people, i think theyre other friends
Stalking on facebook  - Inappropriate photos on snapchat
I feel as if it would be destroyed as people in northern Ireland don't really know about the extreme scale their actions towards the environment contribute to the changes within it  -
Hate comments and cyber bullying because there the apps most people have which is Snapchat and it's easy to make fake accounts for them to be rude
You should respect everyone no matter what
old men - loneliness, idk weird fetishism and old-fashioned, backward thinking, also dont expect young people to be as aware of scams etc as they are, boys in general-  maybe seen as 'cool' or 'daring' financially disadvantaged - desparation - also during pandemic was heightened because we were all at home and bored
snapchat for images and chats because it is primarily a messaging app and is therefore more private, also snaps disappear unless saved so people can control evidence, snapchat is also a more anonymous app than instagram say - on tiktok people also feel safe to say what they want because the algorithm shows them people who agree with them, and it is also very anonymous - reddit is also one I find people are extremely opinionated on, I think mainly because it tends to be older people on there and it is also very anonymous so people are quite rude
the reason young people don't do a lot of these things is because they take a lot of effort and quite frankly young people don't have the time (or attention spans) for these planned operations. for example scamming someone is way more work than just selling something or working a tesco shift, it isn't reliable or sustainable
in terms of treating others with or without respect, I think it Is very case by case, and sometimes the answer isn't to disrespect someone, but to just leave them be rather - I also think people feel better about themselves when THEY are respected, not just when they respect others
HOPEFULLY a united ireland but if so there will definitely be unrest, and people will move back to the UK - I have faith in the rise of nationalism in the coming years, as I feel there is a decline in opinionated, educated unionists and most young unionists are only unionists because of family
Teenagers who have been affected/influenced by adults on social media
Some apps are easier to use like Snapchat and Snapchat (or other similar apps) don't keep any data so it's harder to prove things
There needs to be more systems in place to help protect young people on the internet
Discord, Snapchat. This is because Snapchat is very open and it's easy to trick people and discord is the same, they can create servers with people in them and leak many things
Respect is the thing that makes young people open up or keep to themselves
Scammers and bad people in the world who want to get information about you
No I think most of the time young people are respected. It's only occasionally that they aren't respected
I think that the environment will be much the same in 25 years time as it is now
People are more likely to engage in these behaviours because they know they cannot be physically harmed and are in the comfort of their own home.
These behaviours are more likely to happen on snapchat as chats and photos that you send will disappear and not be seen again clearing all evidence.
At the current rate we are going at the environment will be completely destroyed and disgusting.
I hope it will be a united ireland, and that we will finally live in a form of peace -
People who have nobody to talk to and are mentally drained because those people on the internet will see them as an easy target
Apps like Snapchat where messages disappear will be where it more likely will happen because the messages disappear and then they have no evidence of the person doing the horrible things
People just need to be more careful because it is easily avoided with smart thinking
I think it will stay fairly the same or get a little bit better in certain areas
Inappropriate pictures on Snapchat because there's a larger amount of young people using the app not knowing the consequences  -
Maybe people who have few friends to try and feel popular
People post photos as they want people to think they've an exciting life
I think it will be a safe place to live in 25 years
In 25 years, Northern Ireland may experience warmer, wetter weather with more flooding due to climate change.
people who might not be aware to the dangers like other people would be
a strong sense of community between all areas
boys because they think it is funny and cool
snapchat as u can easily share and message stuff
ruins mental health as people are meaner online than in person
social media ruining children and vapes and smoking
Snapchat - based on my own experience people tends to share photos of people or indecent photos of others without any consent
People may be more violent on social media.
people who dont care about anyone elses feelings. -
i feel like it will be a dead cuntry, even a dead wolrd becuase social media and not being active in the planet is killing and mentaly draining every single humans, even babies. -
Those with not a lot of friends, they feel that by gaining attention good or bad that it'll make people like them more
i think they are more likely to happen on snapchat because it is easier to save and share things. there are also private stories people post on that not everyone can see that increases the risk of people posting whatever they want even if it's harmful
Not terrible, probably need more than 25 years for it to be reallt bad
because your not unsure if you know them or not so you reply back
because snapchat you don't realise who your talking to
check up on your children's phones their could be anything going on that your children aren't saying about
everyone should be treated the way they would like to be treated
if people keep going on the way they do now a lot will change for our future generation
i think young boys are more likely to openly post hateful things towards a certain gender/race/ sexual orientation
snapchat as everything is accessible but kept private
the way in which young boys disrespect women is something taught and it begins from a very young age, it is our responsibility to teach young boys in particular about respect from early on.
the first one, but specifically mental health issues that effect the age/sex group of the teenagers receiving the information e.g eating disorders for young girls
i hope that if there is a united ireland there will be an improvement in people's quality of life and therefore less will feel the need to turn to paramilitaries.
People may want to try and be like the idols
Behaviours could be like blackmail or peer pressuring
I don't have anything else to say than be safe
Just be respectful to people you can get along with
Just help people feel better around themselves and can have deep conversations with people and have fun and feeling safe around people
Hopefully we will see more people stop fighting and getting on badly and people to stop littering as I like when people get along well
Ex girlfriends/boyfriends if they broke up on bad temrs
snapchat , as its the most used social media app between young people and it would be easier to do things
i think it would be better due to the increase of electric cars and solar powered homes
I believe that adults who have previous experience with these behaviours will continue to target young people through these behaviours if not stopped
Snapchat is more used for sharing photos and such than instagram is
People who spend all of there time on social media and that don't have hobbies offline are more likely to do these behaviours
Some people use it better than others eg to just have a friendly chat with a far away friend. it effects some people more than others eg some may people may take the internet too seriously
Sharing photos and videos to specific people in snapchat due to its direct messaging to those specific people
It will only become more common for the younger generations to get access earlier as the years go on, so a balance needs to be found between not limiting younger people when it comes to how to use the apps they'll be exposed to, but at the same time protect them from harmful material or people who can cause a negative influence
Its easier to give respect when you are respected
A more inclusive environment than it is now, which is currently still very positive
People who are jealous as they will want to be better than you
Young people who are uneducated about the side effects of these harms. Mainly because they haven't been taught how to behave appropriately online by an adult at home or in school.
WhatsApp, tiktok and instagram - doesn't let you know if someone has screenshoted your texts or photos
A mixed society between religions with less sectarianism. However I believe there will still be hatred towards those such as immigrants.
Respect is like an std, you never know which one your gonna get
mrs crilly dosent respect her pupils only her daughters friends cuz she lick assess them
Young people are far more likely to engage in these behaviours because they are unhappy and extremely bored. There is a shocking lack of facilities and activities for young people to attend and take part in.
I think it will not be too bad because there's a lot of people who really care about the environment
Young people as its looked at as being funny which it sometimes can be but done  - in good measure
Happier and better role models with actual beliefs and a united country where everyone gets along but with still some strains from older people who like to hold onto the past
They are more able to engage this way in social media rather than face to face as they can say stuff over the phone which they will think is more confident than saying stuff face to face on which i don't think any of these is acceptable
Snapchat because older people can add you who are strangers and you may accept and they will send inappropriate messages
I would like to say there should be a safe place online where young people can talk to someone online about mental problems/social media that they may be afraid to speak to family members about
It will be full of drugs and alcohol everywhere especially for young people which should be banned
Someone who has a bad expirence at home such as divorsed parents or unloved child
joined with ireland due to vote or in the troubles again
people without better things to do. for example hacking and stealing money because they cant get a job.
people may share more sensitive content on twitter because it isnt against the rules.
Ireland doesn't have the worst pollution, however, if nothing changes within the next 25 years things will progressively be environmentally affected
Boys- an online environment surrounded by sexism, from seemingly harmless memes to figures like Andrew Tate :/
A lot of hatred towards marginalised groups on instagram and grooming and unsolicited photos are more likely on snapchat
People who are depressed or in a bad mental state
people can easily be bullied on snapchat
Young people because they have free time and we are more bored and immature, but also older people
Cyber bullying because people can hide behind a screen
easy access to share bad things about people and i'm not too sure it's like normal
sharing of photos and videos on snapchat
Probably people who don't have many friends or don't get much attention and so have to do offensive or inappropriate things online to get attention
Apps such as snapchat have less risk involved with sharing information as the messages get automaticaly deleted.
The enviroment has been getting worse and worse as time goes on, this trend will likely continue and I think the enviroment will be very bad in 25 years
People with more free time who get bored and start to look for other forms of entertainment
scamming- Facebook, Instagram or normal message  -  - inappropriate content shared- Snapchat, Instagram
it can be negative as it is made out to be, however that can sometimes block out people's ability to see the good of it, a place of community and a place to gain knowledge and understanding of new things
give children the best opportunity's possible, with better extracurricular
People who are immature and think things like that are exciting and cool to be apart of. Also those who are not good in school as they have nothing else to do and mess around thinking they are cool amongst their peers.
Photos/videos etc are most likely to happen on Snapchat because people think they're safe because the chats delete but there's now Snapchat premium and other apps that people use to save the pictures. Some people also just screenshot the r sticker, even though it tells u they've done it people don't care and will still save it
It's not as bad as parents think. Parents are honestly worse with social media. It's not the phone, taking my phone off me won't make me better, it'll just make me sad and bored.
Parents should respect their children more especially teenagers who seem ‚Äúmiserable‚Äù
Talk to stubborn parents who think it's over dramatic and unnecessary and prove otherwise
All the mean people who like to take advantage of peaceful people just to feel pleasure and excitement
People who have not been taught respect and how to treat others kindly people who think it is funny to make fun of someone my disrespecting them on difficulties that they may be heavily struggling with for wither their own amusement as they are bored or they prefer to make amusement off of someone else's struggled to hide from their own
Instagram ,its is a mainly toxic community and people who comment under other people's reels isally have no respect or filter.
Young people although some spread hate and criticism to people of difrent ethnicity or sexual orientation there are entitled many young people who stand up and say that they are wrong and stand up for injustice-social media isent always a toxic community many people make life long friends as we get to meet other people from difrent communities which is usually better for some young people who suffer from social anxiety.
Respect is earnt both ways furthermore - These questions on respect are unreliable because it depends on the situations a person may be placed in.
Worse ,if we do not encourage better and improved green methods all across Northern Ireland
Some people are more impressionable than others
Snapchat because its arguable the most used app by teenagers
The amount of negativity a young person experiences due to comparing themselves to edited pictures of pretty girls. Then the disrespect boys learn towards girls that could be potentially life threatening in the future
Respect is always given but if you dont offer respect back then I wont respect  you
Increasined sectarian violence and a lot of young people on benefits because they aren't good at education and jobs
Bullies and people who are insecure about themselves
Bullies because that would most likely be the sort of thing they would do
People who have unhealthy relationships with people in their life
Sharing personal information/photos and videos on instagram and tiktok because if your account isn't private anyone can see your page
I believe people who hold prejudice or discriminate against others due to false information.
The spreading of false information about others
Young people have their opinions disregarded due to being young and even if they are correct adult still say that they are wrong.
It will stay roughly the same if not get worse.
Older people because they are behind a screen and they can't be seen and can have fake accounts
They think there is less consequences to their actions.
Instagram and Tiktok are more likely to have racist etc content while Snapchat is more likely to have unconsented sharing of photos videos etc but hasn't happened to me.
Teaching us online safety rules in school have no effect, nobody cares, we've seen it all before hundreds of times.
Hopefully, there will be no difference between a protestant and a catholic. I hope there are no more orange order parades, that's just sectarianism in our faces.
different apps are built for different things, I wouldn't even describe a few of the apps you listed as social media but with something like snapchat, built for talking with your friends, it would be more common to find people sharing video's or photos of others
many things with young people on social media will be done in a way that is not wholly malicious but usually just for a joke, we could pretend to be someone else as a joke such as those twitter parody accounts that are not meant to be taken seriously but awhile back could've been confused for the real thing even if unintentional
how people feel when being respected or disrespected changes depending on the person who does it or the environment they're in and can't be boiled down to a conversation and requires an actual conversation
actually doing a good job providing support to people struggling instead of putting up a presentation about how x thing is important then not caring about helping those who need it be it academically or mentality, this lack of actual support is the reason why people slip through the cracks, life will look at someone skipping school as as immature 16 year old and let that decide their entire future when if they had something like an actual classroom assistant to help them keep on task or motivated and teachers who actually try to solve problems rather then shout at it this would be happening much less
probably the same, change of any kind takes a very long time
treat someone the way you want to be respected
People who are easily peer pressured because they think it's cool to think like the people they see online
Bullying mainly on snapchat as it will get directly to the person
it can have a big affect on their mental health
i think blackmailing and sexual behaviours are more likely to happen on snapchat as it's easier to message someone on snapchat as most young people accept anyone whos adds them on snap and then most people on snap are weird and are likely to ask for nude pictures or for favours
i think social media should of been kept away from us for longer as it has really had an impact on how people my age are today and even the younger generation
i think the environment in northern ireland will be bad i think the crime will be at a high and the police will mot be doing anything about it
People that post a lot about there life and post daily as people will start to now them on social media and not in person
Bullying under the screen as they can't show there face as feel so big and have so much power under a screen
I think the environment will no be as good
Those that can't get what they want from people in real life may try to gain want they want from those they don't know via online
Death threats, sharing if private information and pictures, all because of something someone did or said
Respect should be earned, not given no matter the age, sex or a group an individual belongs too.
a lot less homes due to the rate of worldwide migrants coming to ireland
Snapchat because people can screen shot stuff
People in social groups who think they're better than others
More likely on snapchat because it is easier to edit photos or videos and more people use it
I think it may be more safe and advanced in the future  -
Snapchat because most people use it to communicate
I would say adults like grown men trying to target younger kids ( i don't know i that's what the question meant)
I would say more violent or wars but who knows
Things said and published online are not face-to-face, meaning the punishments and consequences of the user's actions are limited.
Indecent photos can be sent around on snapchat more as there is no filtering images or videos, meaning anything can be sent, although if the same were to be posted on instagram, it would be taken down and the account is banned promptly
You should treat others how you would like to be treated
Snapchat because it is the most popular app
Bullying is more likely to happen on Snapchat as messages can be deleted once viewed making it hard to find evidence of online bullying.
peple who are self consoius and feel the neeed to get a response out of someone else to makes themselves feel better
People with different personalities and upbringings
snapchat and tiktok as it's easier and more common to share things and they're more commonly used
i think many people my age will not have many academic jobs and mostly will have jobs like builders, electricians, hairdressers and beauty therapists and everything will cost a lot of money meaning most people my age will never be able to buy their own nice house etc
someone who is desperate or has no job and needs a fast way of making money, although it is a risk way its a high risk high reward situation
bullying and spreading false information is very common especially within younger people and AI is also now taking a big part in it with fake videos and pictures.
everyone should treat others with respect if they expect respect back
I think there will be more foreigners in this country as wars and inflation affects other countries as this is a cheaper and safer country to live and start a family in without danger.
Snapchat- Bullying because messages can be deleted after a period of time so people think they can say whatever they want without the messages being found
as some people lack the knowledge pf what is right or wrong, and they also think it is normal or funny to engage with it
as if you have a public account on instagram anyone can twxt you wile on snapchat you have to accept the friend request first
i hope that there will be less discrimination about religious beliefs eg catholic and protestant. but i hope the environment will be more peaceful and less chaotic and less crimes
I think people that are surrounded by others who already behave badly online are more prone to engage in these behaviours as the consequences are not often highlighted to them; rather it is always the dangers that are taught to us.
Sharing videos on snapchat are more likely to happen than any other app because it very common to send other people videos and photos. Instagram, on the other hand, is more likely be used for stalking as it does not alert the person, when a stranger looks at their account.
It's becoming less apparent that there is respect amongst strangers in communities
Very progressive and more accepting to new ideas. However, I feel it may become secular as there is already a decline in faith amongst young people.
Probably mainly on games such as roblox. A lot of older people seek taking advantage of young people like kids.
If their parents have not advised them well
Adults are far more likely to use social media to commit and of the things mentioned
Older people actually do more bad things so we don't have to respect older people just because of age
Hopefully much better as young people are more accepting
Fake accounts and blackmailing is more likely to happen on Snapchat
snap chant and Instagram you can share stuff to stories so everyone can see
with the respect people older than you it really depends on how much older they are than the person
Elderly people because they didn't grow up with this type of technology and can be easily manipulated or children who have just received social media and don't understand it because they are new to it
Well scammers may use facebook to try to get hold of an elderly person
Young boys since I think they're more prone to being radicalised online into hateful behaviour.I think that prejudices like racism and homophobia etc are seen as dark humour online and aren't taken seriously
Males, their type of humour is different to females. Adults, they're more capable. Extremists such as LGBT people and politically and racially motivated people.
There's more hate on twitter and instagram and there is more deception on snapchat, dating sites and discord. This is probably due to the marketing and audience of these apps as well as the systems the apps use to show and display media as well as how people upload them.
It shouldn't be used at all. Young people judge themselves based on what they see online, more so females than males, particularly in appearance or who someone is dating. I may be wrong about that but that is what I understand from using social media.
It should either go all ways in society or no way at all. Forcing people to respect others while they do not receive any respect back is unfair and should never take place today in this era of understanding, respect, dignity and democracy.
Stop making schools a place to shape children into how they want them to be and instead teach them what they need to know and no more. Teach them that social media is a waste of time and your time is much better spent outdoors with friends.
Safer. Paramilitaries will have shrunk. More Catholicism and other religions and denominations will have grown. There will probably be a rift between loyalists and republicans as the 6 counties may be majority Catholic and therefore may join Southern Ireland.
people depend on social media too much to the point where i would consider it potentially damaging
with the way things are going, in 25 years time ireland as an island might not even exist especially with the rising sea levels
Young people whose parents dont really discipline them by giving them good advice or parents who lets their kids do anything they want
Any type of prejudicial judgement, because the kids havent been told by their parents what not to do , they havent been disciplined in a way that the kids respect their parents and each other , tough i think parents also need to respect their kids as they would other human beings
This generation will grow up and have kids that are equally or more disrespectful and judgemental.
Snapchat the ability to post content on private and public stories
It is used too much to intimidate/bully other young people
Should be shown by adults and teachers towards young people more often
People who spend more time on social media because it gives them more opportunities to do so but in my case i believe that it may just have been a bit of banter since it was my mates sharing it with my classmates
racism is going to happen more on Instagram i dont really know why . more sex related things will most likely happen on discord/snapchat
not really but people need to understand that they can jsut turn off there device and do somethign productive instead or use a method to block harmfull things onlibne
People who don't have friends and feel more alone as they try find friends but end up getting scammed
Better than it is now. Less sectarianism
I think that people who take part in antisocial behaviour outside of social media would be more likely to engage in inappropriate behaviour on social media because it is normal behaviour for them that they think is acceptable.
I feel that some apps have features that makes it easier for people wanting to take part in such behaviours online to do so compared to others e.g can create private story's/ quickly change names or accounts.
A lot of young peoples behaviours on social media can be hidden and go undiscovered due to parents,teacher's and guardians not being as informed on the app's abilities or how to operate the app.
Respect should be a value upheld by everyone despite believing wether someone is deserving of it or not.
I think that the environment in NI will be much the same now as in 25 years down the line.
Teenagers, as they can be anonymous on social media's and haven't fully matured yet.
No, I have nothing else to include about social media's
Well, the environment in Northern Ireland will be as usual which I have no way of explaining it. I trust the government to control the uses of fuels and companies to not overuse such things.
people who have been on social media from a young age and those who did not have restricted access
a lot a bad behaviour to happen over apps like snapchat, such as black mail, catfishing and bulling
teenagers  - its easier to say things online than it is in person
its a big distraction and can cause a lack of being able to concentrate especially in school/school work
People who don't like another person but is scared to say somthing to them directly
Leaking information(photos) has happened to people in school as people think it's funny
on snapchat you can set it that message delete after viewing them and you can also set it so that snaps can only be viewed for 1 second -
Will hopefully improve, bu we have a very good environment as it is
People who believe they can use the internet as a shield, to hide from the consequences of their actions which they would otherwise experience if they did the same in real life. Also people who wish to harm others, whether it's to drown out their own insecurities and problems, or simply out of pleasure.
Some social media apps are more ‚Äútoxic‚Äù than others. Apps like Twitter/X, which I believe has more relaxed rules and a large amount of hate speech, or Snapchat, which allows for private conversations and direct photo sharing, are more common to experience this behaviour. That is why I often choose to use social media that is less hateful.
I hope that people in Northern Ireland can put their differences aside and work together to improve our country for everyone involved. We have a long history of disagreement and discrimination, and it's something that has to finally end, because how can we move forward if people still can't get along based on their religion, gender, sexuality, race, etc. ? I'm hopeful that through the combined efforts of all communities, we can finally overcome our divisions and live peacefully, without fear.
Possibly those who have never been on the receiving end of truly negative online behaviour, or those that witness it happen often, as they may not understand the full effects of their actions or because because they are desensitised to it and think it's normal
More invasive questions, messages and photos sent on snap due to the media disappearing
Probably showing similar trends to countries within the UK and also Europe for the physical environment
People who are vulnerable (for example, young people or someone who has broken up with a partner) could be easily manipulated
A lot of social media apps have encrypted messaging, meaning only the sender and receiver know what's happening
Personally, I would say all of the above needs to be addressed
With the generation of now, I don't see it being positive unless people mature immediately
Teenagers, per pressure - People they are around
Harrassment on facebook as i've been harrassed multiple times by mostly christians for beliving in evolution and having an intrest in dinosaurs
People who feel vengeful or people who have perhaps had a bad experience themselves
Cyber bullying on Snapchat as messages disappear, stalking and contacting people on instagram as messages can sometimes be received from random people
Respect is something that is earned, but everyone still deserves to receive it and to feel heard
Hopefully less polluted but will probably be more industrialised
Really bad, littering, vaping, drinking etc
people who suffer when they are younger whether it be physically or mentally or just generally people with bad mental health try to find happiness in annoyijg others
It is becoming available to children who are too young
hopefully it won't be northern ireland and it will jsut be ireland
Some young adults because they think it's funny
Apps like instagram and Tim Tom because they are the most used
social media makes teenagers feel worse about body image and looks
The sharing of personal information or photos happens more on snapchat stories and groups, I myself have witnessed these kind of behaviours with one of my close friends experiencing their personal photos being made into "Stickers" and shared into groups. Another friend of mine had this "Sticker" and i requested for them to delete it to shave my friends decency.
Respect cannot be given but earned with good deeds and selflessness, but also with respect for yourself. To respect others learn to respect yourself
They should focus on the mental health of kids who struggle with school and problems outside of school that effect their learning and day to day life. With support programs that are open for all teens who need help but don't know how to get it as well as teens who want to learn about how they can suggest help to friends
Respect works both ways you have to respect people as long as they respect you back because that is what's right and just because of your age you shouldn't disrespected
I think individuals who were raised in bad environments (however you perceive that) are more likely to engage due to their severe lack of stimulation. If they often feel there is a power imbalance in their life they take this out on social media to be seen as powerful and controlling. Those who blackmail and make fun of people do it because in that moment they feel like nobody can stop them and ridicule them for their actions. This is all my opinion but I think it is massively a mental thing, because they know they will constantly be living in the back of someone's head as long as they believe they are in control.
I believe snapchat is a massive problem for young people because of how much access you have to others with no consequences. Things such as quick add I think shouldn't exist because it is literally free access to anyone snapchat thinks you might know. The feature where messages disappear immediately is so stupid because if an individual is getting harassed or blackmailed and don't get evidence of it in the exact moment, it is gone.
As much as I use most social media apps, I think it should be banned for anyone under 16. I believe all apps should have to verify age with a passport or form of ID to validate and create accounts because I have seen children (7-8) on tiktok and instagram posting videos publicly to the world while their parents don't even know. I don't know why children so young have phones in the first place because they seriously affect your mental health but social media should be restricted to those old enough to understand and respect the boundaries of others.
I think respect should be automatically given, and if it's not appreciated and reciprocated then it should get taken away and be re-earned. I don't believe I should have to respect someone for being older than me, because if I have been disrespected by them previously I will be making no effort to please them. I'm quite a petty person, but I believe if you make the effort to be rude or disrespectful towards me or someone I love I will be making absolutely no effort to please you, however I will not be rude. In places such as my work I give respect to those who show it back, as it proves they appreciate the work you are doing for them. To those who don't, I give the bare minimum.
Ensuring young people know it is not irregular to feel bad (depressed, anxious, low in general) and it should not cause individuals to be seen as any less of people because of their mental health. I believe we should be taught it's okay to reach out if you need support and that's not an embarrassing thing to do. Having a bad mental health is frowned upon by 'regular' teenagers as they often mock and disrespect those who suffer and I think they should be taught how this effects a person.
(I'm not sure if this means social environment or physical environment so I'll type both) Socially I believe we still won't get along and I think we will eventually break out into another civil war (I think sooner rather than later) simply because of the hostilities in the country at the minute. I believe there has always been and will forever be the 'Catholic or Protestant' debate, which is then fuelled by the 'Israel or Palestine' debate and then the separate question of 'Is Northern Ireland its own nation or does it belong to either Ireland or England?' In the country at the minute there is so much racial insensitivity due to the Taylor Swift Dance Class Stabbings, even to those who aren't in the individuals ethnic group. I saw on the news last night a black man, who's children were born and raised in South Belfast and his cafe was smashed and broken into all due to his race. I hate to be negative but I genuinely believe there will never be peace in this country. If we stay British the Catholics won't like it, whereas if we become one country with the South again then the Protestants will start another war so it will never end in peace.  - Economically I think the country will be in ruins because of (specifically dairy) farmers making too much slurry and then dumping it into rivers, and I want to make it so clear that it is majority dairy farmers that do this because cattle only graze outside for a short period of time during the year, so for the rest of the year the slurry is useless and eventually overflowing so it is dumped. The blue green algae in the Lough is killing animals and plants and I think (I might be wrong) that it is caused by dairy farmers dumping slurry. The amount of litter where I live is obscene, I live on a rural country road and the amount of beer cans and recycling on the bunkers is mental. People are literally poking holes in lucozade bottles etc and sticking them on trees and fences. At the top of my road there is a bend which has a dip and at one point someone abandoned a sofa and a washing machine in it, and closer to my house there is an old tv which is now overgrown with grass. Animals won't survive in this environment because of how much litter is about.
Sharing of photos of people without consent or knowledge on snapchat as it can proliferate through private stories and stickers without the persons knowledge.
I'm in the middle of nowhere so flora will remain the same but I think a lot of bug species in the river nearby will die soon with climate change. I also think our weather will get continually more extreme since nobody in charge actually cares to do anything about climate change. I think a lot of other species will get less and less common due to loss of habitat and other factors. I know people say we're trying but it's not enough just look at Lough Neagh
If your taught to respect others u will be treated the same in return
Hoping it's peaceful and everyone gets on. Also build the area up with new homes and more for the young people to do to keep out of trouble.
People who dont have the confidence to bully someone in person but can do it online
tiktok allows people to screenshot and share without the person knowing
It really depends on the kid it's really hard to generalise my friends don't engage on negative behaviour on social media and they aren't really effected by what they see but I know people that are effected, usually more vulnerable like llonely or depressed but I think social media use too much can have a negative impact when I used it too much I'd come away feeling negative even though my feed is all just football
It's important to respect people for their beliefs as long as it's not hateful e.g. Racism. I do have a lot of friends who think being gay is wrong because of their religion as long as they aren't hateful towards gay people or it doesn't affect they treatment of gay people while I'm not supportive of their beliefs and I disagree I respect them and their religion even though I don't feel that they respect me for mine
Fine I don't think it'll change too much but I know lots of young people who litter and have a disregard for the environment
People who don't feel comfortable with themselves as the want people to be as unhappy as themselves
Most likely tiktok or instagram as practically everything is shared on these apps and it is very easy to gain information
Hopefully, the same, more houses and roads, less green.
Too many people binge watch instagram reels
videos shared on snapchat. or screenshot of old pictures on Facebook.
hopefully less civil wars or sectarian fights.
People who struggle themselves, so take it out on other people.
I feel a lot can be shared onto TikTok because you can easily hide behind a fake account.
If this happens they cant do anything about it without getting deeper into their issue eg. bullying  -
Improve confidence and motivation in exams
It's as if they feel more confident and free to act so viciously behind at screen, they intentions to hurt you become easier for them to do
A lot to f young people are thinking about moving away, but I don't feel as if it's going to become a great place -
The most of it is good but there are bad parts
People who don't care about others and only think of themselves, some people are so disgusting and think taking part in certain activities over social media is okay. Most people bully on social media because they can hide behind a screen and make others feel worthless, which is not okay in any sense. Illegal activities such as pornography and asking for photos of young people (while they can be any age) is not okay, and people asking and thinking this type of behavior is okay, are getting younger and younger, because social media gives them access to anything and everything. Its really an issue that needs to be taught or brought to young peoples attention in schools.
Snapchat is a big issue as most people use the snap option to send things to people or request for other people to send them stuff, they can also text, see peoples locations, and find out information about them. Snapchat is a dangerous place as their is multiple accounts dedicated to sexual activities and seeking out people who will join them, this is not acceptable for anyone, not just young people, nobody should be exploited to sexual activity with random people online, whether you enjoy it or not, its disgusting to take part in, and also having no respect for yourself. - Tiktok is also bad because loads of people create disturbing profiles to message people, and make creepy content to scare people into thinking some stuff is reality. - Social media in my opinion is very manipulative and younger people who have access to it are believing so much stuff that is completely wrong, e.g. Videos created with certain topics Body issues and bullying people into looking a certain way to attract other people, is making more people develop mental health issues, like depression and anxiety with a sense of not feeling good enough for anyone or even eating disorders in which people may starve themselves because they think they are too overweight, or people eating too much because they feel to thin. Bullying people because of the way they look is never acceptable, people feel like others have to be a certain size or have certain features to be worthy of being seen as a human to them, its unreal
Some people just need to stop using social media for bullying, making people feel bad or sexually exploiting people, because its not right to make other people feel more worthless than themselves. Hiding behind a screen means that they know that they can say anything without people seeing them or catching them out. I've also noticed a strong sense of sexism online, its not right to stereotype one gender into looking flawless for the other gender to look at them. - Young people being exploited to things they shouldn't even know or even talking about, kids wide range on knowledge about adult life is unreal, social media needs to put up barriers where young people cant get in to certain websites or certain apps
Young people have no respect for others, they need educated on how to respect their parents, teachers, other young people and anyone else who they feel they can disrespect. The amount of young people in my school who disrespect members of staff is horrendous, this kind of issue needs to be sorted as kids should have no authority over adults who just want the best for them. Young people should not feel the right to disrespect others because of their looks or backgrounds, just because they aren't the same as them. As a young person myself I am horrified at the amount of disrespect young kids and people have for themselves and other people.
Its already bad now, its just going to get worse, people don't take global warming serious enough, which will lead to the planet being destroyed, people may think that this wont happen for millions of years to come, but with the pollution us humans create we are just speeding everything up. In 25 years Northern Ireland will be a lot worse, there is already litter everywhere and that's not going to change unless we physically take action, because verbally delivering climate messages is not working and clearly will not work or make people believe in the importance of saving our planet. People are too absorbed  in their own opinions to care about reality and other people who have genuine worries for the future of our planet, it will become inhabitable to certain species, including us. Animals also have as much of right to live as us, although they cant speak or voice their concerns, they are living, they have homes and families just like us, we have no right to destroy or take their habitats away
People who don't know me personally are less likely to act that way instead of people who don't know me
I think the farmers will still look after the land but the air pollution will be worse
People who can't get girlfriends or boyfriends -
Because it is easy to share and not get caught
Bully's and the bully's friends or family
More of them behaviors are to happen on Snapchat because it's more popular and very easy to get into contact with certain people through people.
Social Media use amongst young people is very common and is the worst more suicides due to bullying and harassment and end up having mental health problems. And the amount of things shared on Social Media such as 18+ is not suitable and safe.
Respect should not be used against anyone based on who they are or where they come from.
I think the environment will be poor due to pollution and gases in the air.
The economy will collapse so we are all fucked
People who would be too scared to do it in real life, if not they enjoy hurting people both in real life and online. People who are mentally ill eg, they feel the need to hurt people and ruin reputations etc.....
Snapchat (I don't use it)  - You have more access to people you know in real life. Although it is mainly for chatting, you can share images with a wide range of people in your school. - A boy in my school made a fake account on Snapchat and used it to talk to one of my friends, he convinced my friend  (who is also a boy and slightly autistic, but still smart enough) to send him a personal picture. Since you cannot screenshot on this app without the person you're talking to knowing, he boy took a picture of it from another phone and it got sent around everyone in the school. My friend told a teacher and it was sorted out, but as far as I can see it wasn't taken as seriously as it should have been. The boy who sent the picture to everyone is still the deputy head boy in our school and teachers tend to like him.
Someone posting negative thing towards you on TikTok as anything can be posted along within the guide lines
Young people are more likely disrespected by older generations
Quite negative lots of pollution and litter
weirdos who think there really cool because they think it makes them better than everyone else and popular
explicit photos being sent without consent because they think its cool and think people want to see that
People raised in bad places, or people with bad parents. I think that genetic, environmental, psychological, and even social factors come into play here, and whether it's not their fault or not, it can be determined
No, not really. But I think it can be damaging to a young person, or any person's health if they spend too much time on social media, but everyone knows that
Just respect people. It's not that complicated
There will be a lot of people living here, a lot more than it should be for 25 years, and especially for a country as small as Northern Ireland, but there's not really much to do about that.
Those who are bullied in school or have problems at home may feel the need to spread the negativity they receive on social media. They could bully someone online or threaten other people to make themselves feel some control and power over someone else. However it is important to know that not all people who get bullied do this however.
Snapchat- random people can add you and may threaten you and black mail you. For example, random people could add you and send you a rude image and black mail you with it by saying something like 'if you don't do this, I'll tell everyone you are looking at rude images' - Tiktok/instagram- someone could post a video or comment and get hated on. Someone could leave hurtful comments or if a person shares their opinion then a person could DM them and threaten them. - *Doxxing people is on a rise*
Respect doesn't mean just being nice to someone- it is when you listen and hear the other person out, be honest etc. It doesn't just mean to be kind and just agree with them all the time
Hopefully a lot less polluted with more wind turbines to create a healthier place to live and more green spaces
some areas will be tidy but others will be polluted
people who sit at home all day hoping to find something fun to do in their life when they shouldnt because they should just go outside instead of sittinf manipulating poor people who fall for peoples words easily
on discord real bad photos of sensitive topics and nudes can be shared randomly into peoples dms from servers as you can be found easily and it can traumatise kids on it or sensitive people
Insecure people as they like to make people miserable
Snapchat is an app that people can spread terrible pictures of people everywhere, and that person may not even know it
It makes everyone so insecure and they don't socialise in person, they are stuck on their phones all of the time
I don't actually know but probably not good
I believe that people who grow up around or see bad role models on social media tend to inherit their views and behaviours from an early age.
From personal experience, I find that young people tend to act more disrespectful, mostly to impress a friend/friend group. This causes them to have to face consequences for their actions, which they might see as disrespect towards them rather than someone trying to teach them that their actions were wrong.
People who have o good role-models and have no moral decency and a bad upbringing.
Snapchat - dodgy photos as they disappear in an hour/day/instantly - Instagram - getting hacked as they could blackmail or ruin how you are perceived.
People who have, it take advantage and abuse it on those who don't have it.
Improve the health care and school facilities.
In turmoil with paramilitary groups growing and more racial tension.
People who are just down right creepy and know they're more likely to get away with it hidden behind a screen.
For example, Snapchat chats disappear within 24 hours without a trace of evidence so people may overuse this by taking part in those behaviours
It goes both ways, I'll give you all of my respect when I meet you but once you break that respect you can't expect it back.
Think about the stress of life in general younger people get from home, school even work
Awful. There's so much wastage and rubbish everywhere. I'll be shocked if the environment won't be ruined in a decade
People who dont have a reason to do anything as they have nothing better to do
predators and pedophiles, they go online because its easy to see children since parents post their children to make money and its harder for them to get caught ( they are anonymous)
blackmailing and grooming are easier on social media apps since people have public accounts that anyone can message or friend / follow
bad , probably more industrial and bleak buildings and more ugly housing estates
I feel that content that is inherently harmful (such as racist, homophobic, transphobic videos or content) is promoted more and too easy to access as social media apps dont do enough to remove it
Snapchat as people send pictures more than other apps
teenage boys, they don't know how to respect teenage girls
people sending around photos on snapchat, they disappear after 24 hours
Vulnerable people  - Or  - People who are not in education during education age.
Maybe Snapchat  - As people think the stuff is not saved
It's good for gaming and having a laugh with mates and organising outings
Snapchat- messages delete meaning less "evidence". No privacy on snapchat compared to other apps. Main source of communication between teenagers.
People who want to make others feel down because they are not in a good place.
Snapchat as you can easily show your face and your location
Potentially the same as now with slight progression in the economy and trade
People who have not gotten a lot of attention at home might feel as though they need to make up for the lack of attention by being negative to others. This could be because that was the way that they were treated at home.
Hopefully less drinking and drug culture. Hopefully a United Ireland where people don't feel the need to beat other to pulp simply because of their beliefs.
I think it will be a much worse environment
I feel as though men/boys and older people in particular like to pick fun or be judgmental towards people who are a marginalised group of people
Some social media apps take things like racism and sexism more seriously compared to other
A lot of people get away with things like bullying or harassment
I feel that you  can still respect someone even if you don't really like them.
more inclusive of people from very backgroud
I think people who don't like you are more likely to do most of these things to you because (I count it as a form of cyber bullying) they enjoy making your life terrible, I think pedofiles are also more likely to do things like this because they can manipulate young children into doing things for them and use blackmail to continue getting things from them.
On Snapchat I think it's really easy to get catfished because anyone could use any name and you wouldn't know
It's a dangerous place and I regret getting into social media at such a young age.
Wasteland at the rate the young people here are moving
People having their info stolen and used against them by unknown threats. Technology becomes more advanced overtime causing more things like this to happen to some people who could cause a small mess up leading to their stuff becoming compromised
Don't try to step in areas that may seem malicious, step back and think of what you're doing before doing something that can end up ugly
Not at all, I think this section of the survey has covered it all
Honestly I can see it being roughly the same as it is now unless something ground breaking happens in that time frame. Then I could possibly see it being altered somehow but right now I can definitely see it staying the same
Mainly because they are insecure, and an easy way to harm people is via social media because lots of people now are too scared to be rude in real life.
Because social media contains many different platforms that caters to different audiences, and their content is displayed in different ways. For example, I don't think you'd catch someone sharing private photos or messages on something like Pinterest, whereas it'd be more likely on Snapchat as it is easier to do so because of what snap is used for.
Hopefully thriving, I think that people do care and will work towards maintaining it, but it's realistic to say that it will decline.
If they are unhappy at home and they want attention even if it's bad attentiom
I think snapchat as the messages can be deleted within 24 hours and lots of young people communicate through it
I'm not sure but I think young people are growing up worse these days and it's just going to keep getting worse
I personally believe that respect is something that should be cherished more than it is in friendships and relationships alike
Respect is necessary, but sometimes it needs to be earned as you can't always try and respect people if you're always being brought down
Making sure young people have someone to be there for them to make sure they're mental health doesn't get out of hand due to school or a bad environment
Only time can tell it all depends on how things go
I feel that classmates, friends, and strangers sometimes try to uncover others' online footprints out of dislike, aiming to humiliate them.
Insults and derogatory comments because of the confidence brought by hiding behind a screen.
People my age should be careful with what they share online and what they say about others.
Most individuals deserve respect, or at the very least, their dignity should be maintained.
With the increasing number of social issues in the USA, I am concerned that hate crimes and hateful behaviors will also rise. There are already too many young people who agree with the views of the conservative right. I hope that we won't see similar leadership in the next 25 years. However, I do have hope Northern Ireland will become more accepting.
Boys. They realise that the autonomy & anonymous profile given to them online allows them to be vile, vulgar and engage in several forms of discrimination without punishment, like racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism and more.
Discrimination, bullying and plans to bully people offline. There are little to no things you can (aside from reporting the account) do to find out about someone if their account is private and they are engaging in antisocial behaviour. They know they can get away with it and they will engage in it.
It needs more moderation and regulation.
Given the surge of support from Irish people towards parties like Sinn F√©in, I think it will be very different. It's entirely possible that in 25 years, Ireland could be reunited.
People who are addicted to phones and also maybe someone who is in a bad state and may get blackmailed into getting some money
As apps such as Snapchat and instagram you can have a direct 1 to 1 conversation with each other
I think there will come a time when there will be complete peace between catholics and Protestants maybe not in 25 years but by then it will have improved
snapchat is a very public platform and many people can find you but instagram is more localised
i belive the environment will be completely overun with houses on the outskirts of towns and start to run into the countryside
They can  hide away behind the screen and get away with it better
It gives people more comfort and are less afraid of being face to face with others
It will be in a worse state however, we will be trying to  - Fix the mess it has become by cars being fueled on electricity and hopefully hydrogen. We will be trying for a clean environment but it probably won't be manageable
rich or irresponsible people as they believe no one can touch them online -
tiktok as there are very little restrictions on it
Social media has become a powerful influence on teen boys, shaping their views on identity, masculinity, and success. Figures like Andrew Tate have gained massive followings by promoting a version of masculinity that often glorifies dominance, emotional suppression, and control over others‚Äîkey traits of toxic masculinity. While some teens may be drawn to his confidence or lifestyle, his messages can be harmful, encouraging sexist attitudes and discouraging emotional vulnerability. Platforms like TikTok and YouTube often amplify this content, making it easy for young boys to internalize these views without critical thinking. This can create pressure to conform to unrealistic and unhealthy standards of what it means to be a "real man," affecting mental health, relationships, and self-worth. These type of people tend to be the type to have these types of behaviors overall.  -  -
Snapchat and tiktok, my reasoning for this is because these apps are highly popular and every teen I guarantee have these apps on their phones no matter what -
Notably, nearly half of teens have said or say, they are online almost constantly. This underscores the importance of understanding how the digital environments influence youth well-being.
Respect is a fundamental value that shapes how young people see themselves and treat others. For us, feeling respected‚Äîby peers, teachers, and adults‚Äîcan boost confidence, encourage open communication, and help build strong relationships. At the same time, learning to give respect is just as important. It teaches us empathy, boundaries, and how to navigate a diverse world with kindness and understanding. When young people are treated with respect, they're more likely to grow into respectful and responsible individuals. -  -
In 25 years, I think the environment in Northern Ireland could look very different depending on the actions we take now. If we continue to invest in renewable energy, rewilding, and sustainable practices, I imagine cleaner air, more green spaces, and healthier ecosystems. But if we ignore climate issues, we might see more extreme weather, rising sea levels affecting coastal areas, and damage to our natural beauty. It's up to us to protect the landscape we're proud of, so future generations can enjoy it too. -  -
People who haven't had a steady figure in theirs lives to earn them of the dangers and do nots of social media may fall into the trap of participating in them thinking they are doing good.
Respect is an element that should be earned, not given.
I think Northern Ireland will have developed a larger sense of community and the overall environment will be enhanced.
Young people would be more likely to engage in these activities and have this sort of behaviour maybe because they have been dared to or dislike someone else thats they know thinking its funny and will have no consequences leading after it
Cyper-Bullying is more common on tiktok and snapchat, aswell as sending photos or videos about on social media. -
In 25 years time i think this area will be overrun with foreigners and be filled with crime, drug and alcohol use as young people this day are already taking part in these activities and i believe that it will get worse and unsafe for future children
i think younger people as they don't know what is right or wrong and are easily manipulated
it is easier for someone to use your instagram photos and make fake accounts and black mail people getting you in trouble
i think that in 25 years time northern ireland will hopefully come together as 1 and remove peace walls between communities as i think the peace walls just adds more hatred against each side
bullying/harmful messages-snapchat by default deletes any texts or photos sent after the person views them
i'd say the now unspoken dislike between some catholics and protestants will be less of an issue. So i think that people will care less about others religion and not be prejudice towards eachother
People who are influenced by their friends who do so also
Sharing photos of other people on Snapchat rather than any other app. For example through group chats
Younger people who aren't aware of this and chavs
Snapchat, the app is based around sending photos, Instagram is more about engagement with posts
All it takes is one person in the friend group to find a bad image and share it to the rest.
I feel like respect should be earned, it is hard to respect someone who lacks integrity
It will get worse and worse, even looking at nice beaches in cultra they are being taken over by large groups of dodgy people
i think it's okay some young  people can be weird
Everything gets sent around on snapchat and a lot of people could end up with content they shouldn't have
Respect should be a common characteristic among all people especially young teenagers because they're starting to really find out who they are and form stronger opinions but need values of respect
Lot of things happen on Snapchat because you can become anyone's friend on it
I think that there will be nobody working because young people are lazy and will go on the dole and get there welfare from the government to do nothing which will destroy the economy as people will pay more tax for that money to go to the people not working
I believe people who are more bad or dishonest will engage in these behaviours. - Some not all teenage boys are more likely to share unsolicited photos with people
Snapchat because you can find anyone even a stranger on Snapchat and send them messages even if they don't add you back
This depends on what you mean by our environment physically,socially or politically. - Physically global warming is occurring and our government aren't talking prevention methods to decrease emissions such as green energy and are repeatedly pushing back the mandatory switch to electric cars. - Socially most areas will continue to leave the troubles in the past but there's always a few people in a few areas who remember the troubles in a glorified manner and hold onto sectarian ideals. - Politically our country is behind due to a two party system and a lot of incompetence which doesn't help advancement of any form. So I believe our environment will be somewhat stagnant and behind the rest of the UK and Ireland
Insecure people, men, pressured young people
Tiktok- many people post hateful views and attack people online - Snapchat- easy to get taken advantage of or shown inappropriate things
Hopefully less controlled by religion and nationalism vs unionism
dont really know hopefully ill have been shipped of to a nicer country by then
I think people who are craving attention will do nearly anything on social media to get the attention of others this will make them feel proud of what they accomplished
I think depending on where abouts you are in Northern Ireland it could be very diffrent for example Belfast and Helen's bay two very diffrent areas where I feel like will have some sort of change weather that's in a good or bad way
Damages mental health comparing to other people
sending pictures about is more likely to happen on snapchat rather than instagram
if all goes well, hopefully the environment will have vastly improved
People looking for an escape from their problems. People looking for "quick and easy" monetary gain of some kind. People who enjoy the sense of anonimity and escapism that being online can give, along with the sense that their actions have no consequences. People who want to deliberately spread misinformation to spread an agenda of some kind.
People more likely to send personal harassment on apps like Snapchat and Instagram because they are more about the individual and not the content being made
Respect simply means to be thoughtful and considerate of what someone else is thinking or doin, and to be able to see from their point of view on their action(s) or thoughts. You can be respectful of and treat respectfully someone even if you disagree with what they are saying / doing.
Electrical cars will be the standard. The amount of used disposable vapes straying around streets will be compeltely gone thanks to the upcoming ban. Summers will be hotter and winters will be more unpredictable.
People who think that they are hidden when they say things online
Gore on instagram as it shows stuff but it does give a NSFW warning.
more likely to get photos and videos send on snapchat - more likely to get people viewing your profile on instagram and tiktok
People can take a joke but some can take it too far and it can be because they dislike the person.
I think young people should know what they are getting themselves into when using social media
I think it will be the same there's obviously going to be changes but nothing major
In school it's less likely to happen as online people are behind a screen with no one around them
Apps like snapchat are used more for conversations rather than tik tok and instagram which are more for entertainment
I think there will be a lack or trees and green areas compared to now
Sharing photos without consent is more likely on snapchat
Social media provides young people with access to very disturbing content very easily. It gives them a platform to promote their views for both good and bad.
Respect is a two way street. You should not be expected to respect someone if they do not respect you. Respect is not agreeing with everything someone says but accepting that they have a different opinion to you.
Improving mental health services and access to them
It is easier to message people on snapchat and instagram
I think it will improve and become a bit safer
people with problem lives that have to express their hurt in some way
snap because it's easy to add people that u half recognize
more attention to bullying and inclusivity
instagram and twitter, they dont demonatize. stuff very much.
insecure people who aren't happy with their lives
Young people because sometimes they are not wise and don't know what's right and wrong.
Sharing things without consent and on Snapchat because you can't really see what people are sending each other and things like that.
Adults know that there is an increasing amount of young people on social media platforms today that are too young to have these apps and they can be easy targets
sharing photos and videos without permission is more likely to happen on snapchat, once you send a photo then it's sent or post a story then it's there, unless you're quick to delete it
On the whole social media is a good way to share nice pictures and videos with your friends and communicate with them, it's a small number of people that take advantage of these apps and other people
You don't have to agree with someone's opinions to respect them, respect is being able to listen to other people and try to understand where they are coming from and allowing everyone to form their own ideas and opinions.
Hopefully we can improve the environment, there are a few houses in my area with solar panels so hopefully this will increase
snapchat, its not very well regulated and its hard to get away from group chats.
I think social media is so normalized now, it's so easy to just pick up o the phone, young people are getting compared to and judged when they post things they enjoy of themselves, me included.
I think young people like me are almost pushed down to the bottom of the respect tower if you will, I feel most disrespected when I am in school and thats from teachers not other students.
Those who have an unstable relationship at home
Teenagers because they believe if they do it on social media, then they wont have to deal with the consequences.
Snapchat because there is no filters or safety controls.
Respect is expected but mostly earned. Respect everyone no matter their age, sexuality or gender.
Snapchat is far too easy to abuse others on.
to help people cope with depression topics around that
Depending on their background which sounds stereotypical but some people might not know better
Depending on how the person shows themselves through their social media
I think most young people understand how to use it effectively to not cause themselves any hassle
Younger kids who don't know any different
Probably snapchat or instagram as that just where those things happen
certain individuals who crave attention seem to act in certain ways to get the attention theyve wanted
snapchat as the whole point of the app is to share photos and videos with eachother
i think there are also many benifits to social media but you havent asked any questions about the positive aspects about it
People who have been hurt in the past might not know any better and take it on
Bullies as they use as a way to belittle people
Like weird people who are obsessed with everything you do bc u don't want to be friends with them in real life
Snapchat lets messages be deleted easier
because in snapchat for example people normally take more photos or pictures which could be exploited
Snapchat more likely to fall out because drama always happens, instagram is just people posting photos of themselves weirdly
How people should deal with the feeling of a break up and moving on as well as being comfortable in their own skin
Snapchat is just full of pedophiles. Genuinely it should not be on any girls phone. The amount of creeps and other stuff it is just genuinely disgraceful. Parents should be mode educated on that too.
When I was younger I was always told I have to earn respect, but I was also told I have to treat everyone with respect. These conflicting ideals is what can make children grow up to believe they are not worthy of respect while everyone is. Being taught that there's inherently something wrong with them. That isn't right.
Don't know anything to be honest. Apparently Ireland is gonna take over NI or something. Honestly I don't know, as long as people don't die I'm fine with it. But that isn't realistic.
People who may not have a good home / school life and find an escape by taking their unfortunate situation on others online.
No one specifically. Negativity is becoming more normalised on social media.
Younger people as they may not have the maturity to realise that it is wrong.
catfishing, blackmailing as people can immatate others and trick people easily.
It should always be used in a positive way which it is not.
it shouldnt rely on age if u are respected or not.
Its quicker to spread and a bigger platform to post on
People need to know about digital footprint
Men cause they have a superiority complex
People who make a habit of putting people down or bullying others in real life
I think there will be much less greenery and that the natural environment will be damaged
Some teenagers looking at stupid rumours or stereotypical trends and then label or stereotype others.
respecting people's identity and what they choose to be
Something about respecting people's identity eg. lgbtq+ , different culture, gender
People who have been neglected in their childhood and not educated on the harmful effects of social media
More likely to happen on snapchat and TikTok as they are much more dangerous
Young people as they can hide behind their hidden accounts
People who may have had a worse childhood because of untaught manners/behaviours
Respect should be earned not just given because if an older person was not given it you should not give it back that person might be rude because she thinks your are to young to have an opinion
I feel that respect is a two way street, but even if someone disrespects you you should never go out of your way to openly disrespect them in retaliation.
Providing more accounts of how people have gotten out of bad mental health situations and how to overcome them rather than showing cartoon videos that have little impact on people watching them
People who are struggling ith money and will do anything to get it, people who think they can use people to not have to work, people trying to catfish someone, people who are bored and thnk its funny.
hacking on instagram because its easier for people's friends to then also get hacked. Cafishing someone on snapchat and instagram because its easy to use someone elses photos
It is usually adults doing these things on social media not young people
More houses and less green/ rural areas. More rubbish on roads and streets, less trees, less animals and farms  as farmers are getting a hard time. Air will still be clean
i personally believe that the people who you know of but not personally know are more likely to engage in these activities and behaviour on social media is because they don't know you personally but may know of you and have heard stories about you therefore they carry them back
i think on snapchat rude behaviours may occur more on snapchat as you can have private stories without different people seeing it
Im not sure, but maybe they want attention or they want money
It helps young people connect and maintain contact with people in other countries. However there are negative influences that you people need to watch out for, like misogynist podcast and fake news
I hope more restoration project happen in which the native wildlife of NI can flourish, however I fear that corporate greed and industrialisation will cause for more distruction for the native wildlife
I think many young boys my age and even just around that bracket have fallen into the ‚Äòalt right pipeline' making them more violent and accepting of disgusting ideologies that aim to harm people.
Honestly I don't think its an inherently bad thing, although I do believe theres an epidemic of people lacking empathy because of how easy hate spreads online which mainly targets younger people.
I feel like in a lot of these questions its entirely situational.
Snapchat is the most popular form of communication for teens
Because they don't understand the affects it can have on people's mental health
Snapchat has been used as the messages delete
The environment will be extremely unhealthy and c02 emissions will create health problems
Exploitation on snapchat as they may not know the person and may not see them as a real person but just a name on a screen
People in broken households, brought up in toxic environments, people who are brought up feeling worthless or disrespected so bring down others, people that crave attention and don't have self respect for themselves or respect for others. People who are insecure and crave to be in the spotlight.
Leaking photos of private images, screenshots of conversations or videos of others on Snapchat and TikTok
It can be a toxic and addictive environment where it influences wrong things online for young people to feel motivated doing things that are wrong and think that it is okay as it is normalised or popular so influences them to do it more. It promotes bad thinking habits and distracts young people from the real world and limits their gratitude for the world and surroundings around us. It encourages young people to stay inside more often and spend less time with loved ones, lacking revision and work which can impact the future of our generation as they are so stuck on screens and social media. It can also greatly impact our mental health as we may feel different from others and it sets unrealistic standards of young people body images and can cause great insecurities due to cyber bullying and hate.
I honestly do not know and dread to think what it will be like. I think it will be worse.
There more restrictions on TikTok and Instagram
People that are not taught the correct way to use social media safely and those who have a rough background
Respect can be earned but can be given freely, everyone has there own perspective but I believe treating everyone with respect is the rightful thing to do as you never know what they are going through
Hopefully a good environment for this generation to be able to raise their children here
Snapchat more nudity and more suspicious activity whereas Instagram will be more the defamation and comments tc
Men- they think they're protected behind the screen
Snapchat- it's a talking app, so it makes it easy to gossip
Respect should be given to everyone because it's human decency
Pre teens and teenagers as they can be more gullible to scams or may just act before they think
I think spreading photos without consent is more likely to happen on snapchat because people are more likely to send more photos on Snapchat. It also I think it is more common to make group chats on snapchat rather than any group so it would be more likely that photos get sent around
I think that NI may have less sectarianism and there will be more equality for minority groups such as the disabled or people of colour
i can be dangerous if not used carefully
Respect is also something you can earn by the way you behave
People say worse things on Snapchat because you can't screenshot
Respect should be given but can also be lost
Fairly equal to the way it is now but prices very high
People who are insecure about something about themselves, which would encourage them to spread hate online to make them feel better about themselves, and people who have such a strong hate for someone or something, and they are more likely to send hate posts or messages because it is online and they feel they can get away with it easily.
Younger kids allowed on social media and sometimes older people who have a hard time deciding what is legit and what isn't
Older people trying to contact minors in inappropiate ways on snapchat and sometimes tiktok. Especially sharing asking or sharing inappropiate photos on snapchat
I think some people need to spend less time on social media
Young people should be taken mores seriously by parents
More access for young people to talk to an adult who will listen and not judge them
More friendly, less rascism and homophobia and other hateful aspects
People who don't have a good life in real life may resort to this behaviour, but I wouldn't know personally.
Apps, specifically Snapchat I believe are designed to start controversy between people, especially with the auto deleting messages, live locations of friends, half swipes, and even snapping back and forth. People overthink everything on that app which may lead them to those behaviours.
Apps such as tiktok and snapchat are genuinely ruining young people's chances of successful futures as they are designed to take up as much of your time as possible, which should be spent more productively.
I genuinely think it will be worse as children are becoming more and more violent and worse to control. Especially vaping and alcohol use for young people is an issue in my area
People who have friends who do that sort of stuff
Snapchat is most likely for like sending inducent images of people
young boys as they arent aware of the impact it makes
it can create false images of people which can make young people feel they have to look a certain wat
Young people because they spend more time on social media
Stalking on instagram because it is easy to search for people
Social media has negative impacts on young peoples mental health
You should respect others no matter their race or ethnicity
I think it will have improved in 25 years
People who don't care much about others therefore they are selfish and only looking out for themselves  -
I have no idea-hopefully in a good place! -
People who believe they are better than others, and or people that are disliked, it can cause them to engage in these behaviours either because they think they simply can due to them having the mentality that others are below them, and others that are disliked may feel they need to do this in order to socialize.
On certain social media apps there are a lot more offers to buy illegal goods, such as Telegram, Snapchat and Instagram would also usually have this.
because it is behind a screen and therefore makes it easier for people
i think they should actually do their job instead of giving false hope
I hope for the North of Ireland will be a safer place, less intimidation and fear entering certain areas. Less sectarian
most people in this and the new generation. They think they get away with anything saying what they want with no consequences but thats just my thoughts
its online they think no one can do anything
if people want to be respected. They should earn it by treating other people with respect
They can feel safe hiding behind a screen
People lack punishment for their actions
Respect is gained not given no matter what age they are
People with bad influences around them or who have witnessed similar things online from a young age, they learn these behaviours
because they can hide behind a phone, keyboard warriors and my not have the confidence to say it face to face and they will be harder to identity if they don't show their real identity
and people can send other peoples busy to other people at the click of a button and don't need to ask for permission to do it  -
Could be ex's as some people may feel pain and think the only way to deal with it is to inflict it onto the people they know the most.
Snapchat as it is easy to send nasty images and messages to others and is highly used by most young people.
You shouldn't have it until you are 16 as it can effect massively how you grow up in a bad view
I think there would most likely be more housing going out from the cbd where fields would be and hopefully streets and litter would be less of an issue on destroying environments
Photos and videos are more likely to be sent on snapchat becuase it all deletes after 24 hours and most people use snaptchat or whatsapp to message each other in group chats
People who have nothing else going on in their lives and have problems so they take it out on others
I think most of these behaviours happen on snapchat as its a very private app and its easy for people to hide or fake their identity
I don't think it'll be much different, I think we'll still see a clear divide between protestant and catholic areas, as well as relations still being quite distasteful towards each other as it is now.
snapchat and telegram because there messages are highly encrypted
there will be no ‚Äúnorthern ireland‚Äù it is a false state and there we shall have a united ireland
I think sharing of images without consent is more likely to happen on Snapchat and Instagram compared to other social media apps and selling illegal items is more likely to happen on apps such as telegram
People who are interested im tourting people online
Stalking as people are interested on stalking people now days
Twitter is very unregulated and has groups that promote the likes of suicide and make you feel invalid if you self harm in a different way and make you do it more to fit in
There is a big problem with respect for academic clubs in school and aren't treated the same as sports team even though both equally beneficial to the likes of schools
Young people as they might feel safer or without consequences behind a screen
Some people feel safer from behind a screen
Bullying, Sharing information without consent, blackmail, racism
People who have not been brought up with the right teachings such as morals, values and how to respect and love others
I feel that nude/uncensored/obscene images are more likely to be shared on Snapchat
I think it will be good and very improved compared to now. The area i live in will hopefully be safer
Young people as they are more likely to be manipulated by strangers online to do things that are wrong.
Bullies and smicks because they aren't very nice and full of hate
that it needs to be discussed more about the harm and that there should more punishments for the perpetrators
Ex boyfriends or girl friends bc of they are jelous
People who want to find out more about you or people who have a weird obsession with looking for people and wanting to find out more about you so they can tell their friends.
Apps that are more popular and more centred for younger people it will happen more on
Telling kids to speak out even if they feel pressured from their friends. Just do it
If they don't find a way to solve the whole problem with the stupid divide between Ireland and Northern Ireland this country will be ruined and full of conflict.
Those who are being bullied themselves or are having a rough time
mostly on snapchat because things get sent around easier and more people use it
I think in 25 years, the environment will improve slightly but not enought to make a significant difference
you don't have to face them in real life, it's easier to do it behind a. screen
on snapchat i believe there are more people taken advantage of since its a texting app however instagram would have a lot less of that
People with mental illnesses or diabilties because they are scared of doing it in public.
More photo sharing on snapchat as thats a more direct form of contact compared to other social medias
Polluted and damaged due to most peoples ignorance
Young people due to their vulnerability and immaturity
indecent photos being shared on Facebook and Snapchat
believe it will change a lot in the next 25 years and not in a good way
teenage boys because they tend to act slightly irrationally and therefore don't think about what they are posting and what it really means, this however does not excuse them from these actions
sharing or posting insensitive and disrespectful things on tiktok or instagram because it is very easy to make an account with no link to your real identity
snapchat because u can delete the picture/chats after sending them
i think everyone should treat everyone with respect regardless of their age or gender etc
snapchat and tiktok: cyberbullying - instagram: stalking
Discriminating or hating on one person due to not talking face to face which gives them confidence to speak
Snapchat bc there they can target pesific people and they can easily pretend to be someone they arent
Idk hopefully it wont be called northern Ireland tho
Random strangers as they will never truly know the consequences.
Snapchat as messages and videos go away and Instagram as if you account isn't on private anyone can see it.
I believe that everyone should be respected and treated equally.
Hopefully there would be less litter and people would care more about the impact that they have on it.
That older people should respect the youngers
There will be no Irish people left as my town barely has any left
I don't know I just think that some more than others would
Bullies and jealous people because it is hidden and there is no accountability. You can be anonymous on social media
TikTok videos can be shared and you have no idea who is sharing them
Everyone uses it. My mum has me warned against the dangers but some children aren't as aware as there parents don't know much about it
Respect is earned not a given and some people's behaviours and actions do not deserve to be respected regardless of age!
Young people or adults who have very little else to be at and maybe are in a form of depression or loneliness themselves
Snapchat-sending photos or videos without consent  - Instagram-pretending to be someone else
Warmer in spring/summer time and colder come winter with more snow.
Respect is good point for young people and old people in ever where
On social media you find all sorts of people that can make you feel bad and could reflect in mental health
Snap chat sharing videos or photos of people just to make a joke on them
Think things change a little bit young people do not live with the past and I think if the parent tell the young ones the right way to treat people no mater what background they coming from .Think the parents are the key to change the diffrent between Catholic and protestants .
attention seeking love making people feel shit so they can feel good knowing they can intimadate someone to the point they dont wanna go to school
snap chat photos taken with out contest that your frineds take as a joke like the middle finger and then sending that piture of you to someone they dont like so now that person u didnt know hates you now and intimadates you
more opertunites with youths to stay away from home and activites outdoors to boost moods
Members of the working class -  - Why? The government probably, their failure to secure their family with anything tangible leads to a life or either squalor or squalor and crime. It's how it is unfortunately
It's just coming from a pretty small minority who do this
Despite the fact I'm straight and cis. I feel disrespected at times when I'm walking around a town or such. This is due to my long hair, which paired with my fairly feminine facial structure leads to many questioning what gender I actually am. I can note this from the countless stares I receive from people whether they walk past me or I walk past them. Sometimes they attempt to confront me, this is typically from other people around my age (3-5 years give or take). If this really bothered me so bad I would have cut my hair long ago, but I like to think that trans (or any sort of non-straight person) people in this country, especially those who live outside of city centres, are severely mistreated. So I feel as though I can sympathise with them on atleast one aspect of their life.
Classmates because they think they won't get in trouble if they do it in a joking way
respect goes both ways. you treat people how they are treating you and it doesn't depend on who they are, age etc.
teenagers and young adults because they are more likely to be active online
X/twitter because it is more politically active.
Some people are more likely to follow trends and peer pressure. People who maybe have mental health or self esteem issues.
Some apps make it easier to spread information.
Young people shouldn't be using as much social media as they do, but some people's parents are too strict, and others' parents aren't monitoring anything. I think there should be a good balance.
I think that in secondary schools young people aren't treated with enough respect by teachers or other staff. Some students don't treat teachers with respect and then the whole class or year group is treated with disrespect by the teachers. The word "disrespect" is thrown about too much. If you do something someone doesn't like or agree with they'll say you're "disrespecting" them, when that isn't always the case. Many older people and younger people tend to not treat each other with respect.
I don't know, hopefully better than it is now, but probably worse. A lot of people round here don't care about the environment.
worse too many vapes and drugs about antrim
On snapchat people can make your snap a sticker without anyone knowing meaning they have that snap and can send it about
People who have boring lives and feel that they have to go out of their way to harm others.
Bullying, stealing information, showing content without permission etc.
creates insecurities and depression but it's addicting so won't stop
Photos/ messages are deleted on Snapchat after a day.
I think it will have gotten a bit worse.
I think people that are insecure about themselves are usually people who act out on social media cause it makes them feel better about themselves when they send inappropriate messages or pictures to young people that don't have a proper sense of safety
I think bullying and nudes that aren't consensual are most likely to happen on Snapchat because it's the easiest app to reach people on
I think Northern Ireland will still be a bad and unsafe place in the future especially for women
Younger kids because they think it is funny and that they are doing no harm
I think these type of behaviours are more thank likely to happen on TikTok / snap chat cause everyone has them and is constantly on them
People who have family or friends that are a bad influence as it can be repeated and the only behaviour they know
The age of which social media is being used at is is scary, I log in using my parents details
Respect is important and everyone is equal
Far more confidence as you aren't face to face with someone and easy to set the phone down and leave it
On Snapchat for instance it is teenager predominant with easy access to private messages.
Generally under-trained, unable to see the potential consequences as of a lack of education and feel a bizzare confidence which can get them into bother.
Young people immediately have a prejudice which makes them out to be ‚Äòthug like'', rude and  up to no good -
I think it will be quite good, although not very educated on that sector and with the paramilitaries help on drug usage
People with autism, reason; its hard for them to make connections in person because of they're behavior so they spend more time online to make friends or do other things e.g. the previous questions. People who are interested in minors as well as there are so many young people online they go there to try and find a young person themself and stalk and harass them. Scammers as well have an easy time committing crime online as its pretty unregulated and there are   so many people online
snapchat has a lot of private info on it and since there are so many young people on it they send a lot of explicit images they receive or find to each other or group chats
There are way to many people living their lives on social media and real life becomes a chore for them somthing that takes time away from their phone, their life loses meaning.
respect doesnt mean agreeing with every thing or telling people that theyre great all the time and what theyre doing is amazing. Respect is honesty, its care, its listening, sometimes all people want is to be heard, and helping do to whats right, not easiest.
Hopefully Ireland will be restored and we wont live under British rule (they really don't care about us anyway and that's why our health care, Irish schools, transport and other faciality's are so outdated) i believe that a united Ireland will be much better although there may be some tumult among some communities for a while
an ex girlfriend or boyfriend would have a higher tendancy to stalk than others due to missing their old partner and how things were or out of spite
instagram- posting photos of where you are and what your doing. - tiktok- reposting videos about how you feel
just to be careful, you never know whos behind a screen or what their intentions are
i feel that with older people they expect to be respected beacause of their experience however i feel that no matter your age or status you have to earn respect
it could go either way. there are some bright minds working on our world but personally i think our enviroment will become slightly worse within the next 25 years
Young people all hate eachother nobody really does this to me anymore i think irs because im a year 12 and people are startong to grow up a wee bit but u see it everywhere insecure people sending bad pics of others about just to get a reaction and credit from their mates but its just disrespect its fine when its just banter wothin your group but things like nudes and genuine bad pictures getting sent about is just too far in my opinion, i would probably swing at someone if it happened to me
I dont care im leavong because i dont want my kids to grow up here, its probably going to be even worse because none of these parents are doing a good job and tgeir raising drug addict kids who get pregnant at the age of 17 and the cycle goes on of innocent kids who just get pulled into a life of violence and judgementality and for the physical environment its probably going to be bad hopefully sea levels swallow this place by then
I don't know, probably worse? global warming, pollution and stuff. I don't really think it's gotton better, but that's not limited to NI it's a global problem.
people who don't have a good mentor because they don't have anyone to tell them what may be good or bad
on snapchat it is more likely that people will post pictures of you without your consent and blackmail
I think people who have had a troubled upbringing or negative experiences might be more likely as they hide behind social media and can take their anger and hurt out on  people they dont know
I think photos and texts are more likely to be spread on snapchat as it so easy to send a careless photo which people can use without the sender ever knwoing
Its very hard to monitor and maybe too easily accessible
I think Ireland with be hotter and the rain and storms will keep increasing
More likely people with attachment issues and feel like it's acceptable to be like this
In my own personal experiences, I feel people more likely to engage in these events are you men particularly under the ‚Äúincel‚Äù label. - These are people who do not understand boundaries and how to have social interactions and take their frustrations out on this vunerable on the internet. It is a space to express any thought somewhere or free will and from my experience it has been these men in particular who bathe in self pity through the promotion or misogynistic language and seeing women online only as a sexual being
Needs seriously moderated. Too much hateful content towards minorities promotes. Brain rotting. Rise in porn material being promoted to young people
I personally feel some young people may get more respect than others due to an issue of class. If a young person is from a well educated and well off family I feel they can be perceived at the same level as elder however if a young person comes from a working class lower level of education they receive less respect due to the culture and stereotypes around these communities
Rise in republican ideals more unification to the republic of ireland
Spreading of explicit photos and using it as blackmail on Snapchat
I think due to the amount of rubbish the environment won't be great
people who may not have someone who cares for them. As they are looking for attention.
Blackmailing someone with personal info/pictures is more likely to happen on snapchat. I think this happens as people tend to use snapchat like a dating app and also the messages on snapchat disappear.
teaching young people what bad mental health can look like
Older adults who are more likely to manipulate young people by blackmail or grooming
You are exposing yourself to others on Snapchat and instagram by posting photos and videos
You need to have self respect before you can start respecting others
Snap chat and instagram can provide alot of information about a person -
I think it won't be to bad but won't be good either
younger people with unlimited internet access, political activists, probably pedofiles if i had to guess
Twitter is more likely to host toxic and unfriendly spaces online
hopefully better but realistically i dont see it improving without radical changes to like the law or something
People feel more protected behind a screen as they feel more secretive. Compared to  if they said it directly to their face where they could not hide behind anything. Directly facing the consequences instead of hiding.
Snapchat is probably the most used texting app by teenagers as it has the most features that would entice teenagers such as Streaks and filters. Snapchat is available to everyone no matter the age as long as you have a account. Therefore it is very east to be contacted and showed things teenagers should not be looking at
I personally believe that Northern Ireland will thrive in the on coming years as the community becomes more diverse and  more friendly, welcoming in a  more diverse community.
People who have had a bad experience with certain things like religion or a race -
If someone treats me with respect I will treat them the same way
Sharing pictures on snapchat happens more because it is easier to get photos
I feel like it will be scary as the crime rate is already very high especially for woman which worries me for my safety in the future
People that have been getting bullied and have just snapped or the bully to get more views
people who are maybe unhappy with their own lives or feel jealous about someone as they feel just because they are going through a rough time the people around should also suffer
social media use among young people can be enjoyable and fun when we are properly taught and educated of what acceptable behaviour online is and how one negative thing can really hurt and destroy someone
respect has to be earned and sometimes respect can be very hard to gain back after doing something wrong or bad
i believe pollution will increase and harm the environment and i feel global warming my continue to increase
Sharing of nudes or other images without consent on Snapchat. The snaps delete after 24hr
Pedophiles, Individuals with low self control, people with lack of socialisation. A lot of teens search for comfort and security online, a place to shut out the real world. These are specific targets for criminals that hide behind a screen and can easily take advantage of young adults without facing repercussions and having constant access to young adults.
Discord is a dangerous app for engaging in these behaviours. Almost every server is public meaning you can easily be added to or join servers, people can message you without being your friend and you don't have to input your age during registration, although the app is rated 13.
Hostility will grow as a growing population of republicans will outnumber loyalists and eventually there will be a united ireland which I think will cause violence.
People who know they will get away with acting like this as they know they have the upper hand
Often Snapchat as the messages delete after a day and the other person can see if the chat has been screenshoted. Therefore people believe it to be ‚Äúsafer‚Äù
Young people are often too scared to speak up about an issue as they feel embarrassed
Girlfriend or boyfriend because they are more worried and interested
snapchat because anyone can save a photo you took and send it to someone else.  - instagram you can make a fake account of someone else and use their photos
social media isnt the problem, its the people around us. the negative people that pump bad imagery and thoughts into other peoples heads
im not sure, maybe the same as it is now
Snapchat, a popular and a well liked app. Many go out of their way to exploit people on that app.
People who may be struggling and not happy with themselves that's try to bring other people down and are too scared to ask for help
Bullying becuase people don't have to show their faces which makes them think it's ok to do so
It may feel they are hiding behind a screen -
People who strongly dislike you or adults that are strangers
sharing photos and videos is most likely to happen on snapchat aswell as random people adding you and trying to talk to you, however people also receive messages from strangers on instagram and WhatsApp
People are quick to disrespect young people because they are judging them based off their age and are assuming the worst
Usually bullies, they find it easier to get under the victims skin if they're tormented behind a screen in the safety of their own home- as well as in school
I don't have Snapchat solely because random people can add you and harass you- friends of bullies for example
It's destroying our attention spans and freedom to think for ourselves.
Respect shouldn't be expected because you're older, respect isn't about blind obedience- many older people get it twisted.
I don't know, but it probably won't change much, not that i'll be in NI to see it anyway, I don't plan on staying
Snapchat-people pretending to be someone they aren't - Instagram-someone hacking your account
people who are too scared to say things to your face
people asking for stuff on Snapchat and strangers who are alot older then you dm you on Instagram
I have no idea it's very unpredictable as anything can happen
Targeted towards a certain age demographic
Making sure people don't use mental health as an excuse
There will be more new houses built and less green/wild spaces
cyber bullying on tiktok as people can see other people's videos and comment whatever they want in comment sections
northern ireland will hopefully be moving on whilst not forgetting the past but not letting it hinder us
younger generation and strangers as they can do this without other knowing as people can't find out who they are if they pretend to be someone else and they ike to not loook like the bad one and they are scared to talk to them or do something in perosn as they know they can't get away with it
Blackmailing, hating, stalking , pretending to be someone else and cyber bullying- as you can hide who you are when you are doing stuff
i think its great to experience new things and engage with everything in the world around you but i also think it can bring down a childs confidence massively.
I think it goes both ways as you need to give respect but you also should recieve it.
I think there will be an improvement with social media and i feel there will be more crimes and maybe more laws being put in place and age rescrtictions changing for certain laws.
No, however, I don't have any social media so I can't speak on everyone's behalf.
Being respected shouldn't be a privilege, it should be a general rule of life to respect others particularly if they respect you.
I think in terms of the social environment, as linked to the previous questions, it will have increased dramatically as the society as a whole is starting to understand the problems and are able to assess and deal with them. We are also enabling children to understand the importance of respecting eachother and being aware of other people's background. In terms of the natural environment, I think it should improve as a whole as well because people are more aware of the effects that we have on the environment and what we can do to help. -Sorry for the long answer :)
people who are tramps/poor depressed people with no life
i think people don't care about the environment enough and young people will not care as much as the older generation
Young teenager who are insane in their mind and have no other stuff to do
people can be influenced by theirs friends and just the people around them -
snapchat is easy for things to get shared and everybody is on snapchat so things will spread very quick
I think northern ireland would mostly be the same as it never really changes
People with less confidence because they dont have to face up to their actions
Messages are deleted after a day and is notified if it is shared
People who maybe dont have as many people who they can talk to
people struggling trying to make money to get buy and people just trying to get what they want
twitter/X doesn't have many safety features
Everyone at any age can do horrible things, younger people aren't always innocent, older people aren't always wise and mentally mature everyone can be criminal or be a bigot
Its important and builds friendships and can solidify a bond between people
Could go to the gutters or rise up, it depends on the government really and the psni to actually do something
Hopefully nicer with better habitats for plants and animals
I think you are more likely to get black mailed on Snapchat due to the use of videos, photos and text messages. Along with the option to add people you don't know, then are able openly share your location. Though places like WhatsApp and YouTube would be less likely to happen due to the inability to directly message on YouTube and having to obtain a number for WhatsApp. TikTok may be a place where such activities could occur due to the use of videos, leading to exploitation of the younger audience as more children use this app in naivety.
I think these behaviour do occur in young people though it should not be targeted due to older ages also partaking in such actuvities even though they are seen as more mature yet the actively seek such immature online activity
In 25 years time I believe Northern Ireland will become more open minded and inclusive due to the younger generation being more exposed to other race, religion, genders etc in mainstream media. This is both a good and bad thing, though positively it will bring a change in our mindsets as we become less sheltered. Negatively I think younger boys will grow to be influenced by misogynistic views in the media, maybe leading to a cycle repeating itself.
Scammers, pedophiles/molesters. People who don't care about other people (who are selfish) or are just really creepy.
No idea. By that time I'll be far away from this place.
I think the platform of snapchat, and the ability to clip things from snaps make it easier for people to do such things as its easier than platforms such as instagram.
People who are more vulnerable such as younger children, people with the likes of a disease such as dementia and older people. I believe these people would engage with these behaviours more because they don't understand what is happening and the consequences that come with these actions.
I believe that on apps like snapchat it is easier and more accessible to send photos/messages/information as these messages and photos are not checked to see what is being sent.
People who don't personally know you becuase they can hide behind a screen
There'll probably be a greater number of Catholics, and thus a greater amount of Nationalists or Republicans, which may sway us closer to the Republic than to the UK. I also think the quality of life would improve greatly, as more companies set foot here as violence hasn't been as widespread as in previous decades, which prompts them to invest more into the province.
Sharing of inappropriate material of Snapchat as the chats delete immediately after opening them
People with no skills or qualifications which would help them earn money in any other way.
Teenagers as it's basically a trend to hit people and slabber d them just for the sake of it even if the victim hasn't done anything wrong to them
On snapchat most of the time if a boy adds u he'll ask u to send same with a girl but girls can act nice n then turn around n tell everyone everything that you told them despite how it'd make u feel
Boys should be taught not to send girls their mushroom looking dicks.
The same as it is now except there will finally be no more scouse trims &#128591;
Older people that are bored or want attention from young children
Pictures being sent are more likely to happen on Snapchat as that is what you do on the app you snap people, whereas TikTok is just videos and instagram you just post to keep the memories and make your page look nice
I think there will be more conflict between religious groups
Younger people because they don't understand how unsafe social media can be
Sharing images with out concent and staking behaviours on social media because it would be easier to do
I think it will be a more respectable place and we can put aside our differences
People who are more vulnerable than others and less educated on the effects of social media, people who are isolated and lonely are more likely to engage with these behaviours.
I feel like Instagram is more likely that these behaviours are going to happen on rather than the likes of Snap Chat, as if someone screenshots something on Instagram, the person who posted it will not know, but on Snap Chat they will.
I feel like social media causes young people to feel insecure about their bodies or not having all the popular things that are seen on social media, like the newest phone or clothes.
Respect is very important, no matter what age
People will be living side by side with others
Maybe people who have strong hateful opinions or those who are angry and want to harm others.
Certain social media apps have fewer regulations than others, for example you can post just about anything on X/twitter whereas the same content would be removed if posted on tiktok.
I've personally experienced individuals being taken advantage of, and i think that some people don't think before posting online. I feel that it's definitely misused and believe that social media can be quite dangerous.
I think that disrespect is becoming alarmingly common & normalised, and it needs to change.
I hope that things will have significantly improved in 25 years from now, but i think the environment will remain for the most part, the same. I think there will still be some degree of tension between catholics and protestants.
I think that some people behave differently online because they think that when you do not know who they really are, their actions have no consequences
I think in 25 years there will be talks regarding the Unification of Ireland, which will bring to light the underlying sectarianism within communities and separate the people of the North of Ireland further
Those who are naive and uneducated about the dangers that are present
Actively helping those who already have mental health issues
people sharing videos or photos without peoples consent on snapchat
hopefully, there will be less of a divide in Northern Ireland and it will grow to be a great country
Less segregation between religious groups hopefully- less prejudice against ethnic minorities
More vunerable young people such as those who aren't as educated on social media safety or those who don't have the right adults to monitor social media
Posting or sending materials of people as it's easily deleted or removed through the algorithm
Education of social media as it is evolving is getting lessened for young people.
Similar to modern day as not much change has happened in the previous 25 years
Its super important to respect your peers
Hopefully better, there are less paramilitary involvement and no sectarianism as the generations move on.. Its hard to live with sectarianism
young people because it is often more younger people using social media
possibly snapchat beacuse it's a more interactive social media between young people
I think it ruins friendships and relationships and sometimes our ability to study and learn properly.
i think all people she be allowed and granted some aspect of respect regardless of who you are where you come from and what you identify as.
im not sure but if i had to say i would say it will remain a good environment
I'm not sure but I think some people do it simply because there's hardly anything done to stop them. And when they are stopped they can just make a new account and do it again.
people who are extremely confident and comfortable in themselves and people who are arrogant
sharing inappropriate images is more likely to happen on snapchat because people think that no one else will see them
there should be age restrictions and strict guidelines in place
i think worse behaviour is to happen more on snapchat as they don't really check reports or anything.
A safe place where everyone gets along and works together as a strong community
Young teens or adults as they may have too much free time.
Snapchat would be used mostly by teenagers and it is easy to send a picture or a video without someone's consent.
Northern Ireland's environment in 25 years might face more extreme weather events, alongside increased efforts in renewable energy and sustainable practices.
I don't know personally since I don't use Snapchat, but I heard stories
All I can say is don't share your personal details with anyone but other then that, not really
I don't have anything else to add, thank you
I don't really have expectations because if I do, then I'd be dissatisfied if things didn't end up how I wanted. So I wait for what those years have for me (if I am alive)
People in need of money in dire situations will blackmail others to attempt to get money or expensive items
Instagram and Snapchat as they are quite open with what can be sent to one an other
Those with a bad intent/evil nature  in the world are more likely to manipulate and entertain these behaviours online for many reasons like personal gain,clout etc.
Social media has become far too influential in young people's lives.It is a void for comparison,online bullying.distraction etc.Although not everyone may face it we would be far better without the digital gaze of the media
I believe the environment in Northern Ireland will be in a stage beyond repair
Older children and Teenagers as they may do it with friends and think that it is funny and aren't really bothered about the effects it can have on people
Snapchat and TikTok as you can make fake as well as several different accounts and then people don't really know who's actually behind the account
I feel like a lot things happen in social media not  always for the good amongst young people and it can have awful and serious consequences to those who are being targeted
I feel like it would be quite similar to what it is now maybe more on a decline due to climate change and all that
Those who are uneducated about online safety
Strange weird behaviour on Snapchat maybe not me though
Snapchat- deleting chats. Safety behind a screen fake profiles
Very different due to the changing laws in England and the USA will eventually impact here
More poverty; more social housing; countryside built up; farming practices changed; more immigration;
Snapchat as people are always sending photos and someone might send a photo and instantly regret it. It's a spare of the moment kind of thing
More houses city's and town will be bigger
I think people Snapchat Instagram and WhatsApp would be more easier to pass people's photos with consent and it would be easier to conceal on these apps
Respect is earned not a given, to get respect you must give it to begin with
If climate change gets worse, Northern Ireland would look very different than what it is today
I feel because they are online and have no real fear of getting in trouble they do these things almost as if they have a sheild of protection and they won't face any consequences
Because they aren't as well regulated as other social media platforms
Social media has its downsides but it isn't all bad, it allows people to build and maintain relationship/friendships that they might not usually be able to do because of such things like long distance relationships
I feel respect is earned. It goes both ways, if you respect me i'll respect you
I'm not sure. I have hopes that it will change for the better however
Issues going on in there personal life such as financial issues or relationship problems
Easy to stay hidden without revealing too much about themselves
The environment will have improved if Northern Ireland keeps enforcing improvements such as hose pipe ban during summer and the use of reusable shopping bags etc
it's easier to do it in a screen instead of in person
it's easy to share and not be known who sent it
u think ur will be an absolute dumping ground and will be filled with crackheads
People, such as scammers, who want to obtain your information for a variety of reasons.
Scams and other illegal activities due to different rules of different social media apps.
Social media can be a positive thing, but when used in the wrong way it can be very dangerous. It needs to be looked at and rules need to be set.
I  believe that people should not be respected just because of their age, race etc., but because they respect you and you respect them too.
I think that the environment will be a lot worse in 25 years time than it is now. I think that a plan needs to be put in place to reduce damage and harm to the environment in everything we do.
People who aren't cared for in their everyday life as they'll look for that attention on social media even if it's negative
They're more likely to happen on Snapchat and Instagram as they are more popular with younger people and have less strict policies, they also don't take action on reports submitted
I think it'll be more tolerant and friendly as young people aren't being taught the same discriminatory practices that the older generation was
this question is somewhat vague, you can't really immediately tell what someone in your day to day life is up to on social media just by looking at them, no answer.
snapchat is inherently designed to support shady activity such as sending nude photos of yourself to people due to the fact that unlike other texting apps images immediately delete upon the recipient seeing it.
respect is earned, not given. a parent is not owed respect from their child just because they gave birth to them, for example.
in terms of the environment, it probably will get worse and a lot warmer. i only feel comfortable when it's cold and recent years it has been increasing heat earlier than it should
Bullies and people who have bad lives so they decide to take out their problems on others
Mainly urban with less countryside and green area
Well, I think the people who do this are people who have no sympathy for others.
I think it needs to be managed better, as it can easily get out of control.
I think people need to pay attention to young folks more, look for signs of unhappiness, reckless tiredness and randomly lashing out.
I think that northern Ireland will finally be able to reunite with it's former country in 25 years.
I think that you are more likely to have someone try to take advantage of you to get your personal information on apps such as Instagram and Snapchat, where you can add/follow people you don't know to communicate.
Most young people who use social media are already aware of what could happen, and how it could happen. For example, a link that gets you to type in your email being used as a scam. We are not stupid (well... most of us), however for those who are new to social media, a reminder of what could happen may be needed.
Respect for oneself should always come first.
Not sure, hopefully the economy is doing well and the cost of living doesn't increase by 500%.
Everyone will become a community and Protestant and Catholicism wont create a spilt in the communityn
Men especially mentally ill men who believe they have no control overall their lives and are cowards so they say horrible language and be total creeps knowing that 9/10 times they'll get away with it
Doxxing/sharing personal information is more common on Twitter since they're internet culture is a lot more aggressive about hurting those they get in arguments with - Snapchat and Instagram are more about sharing explicit photos of others whether it'd be silly photos of friends or in extreme cases revenge porn this I think happens cuz these social media apps are a lot more personal with many people making accounts with their real names, posting photos of themselves and blogging so sharing pics of people on these apps are almost expected - Tiktok is kinda just general harassment idk any specifics but that's what I see commonly
I think it will be a lot more peaceful and young people needed will be listened to more  - Also on the question asking about how safe do you feel I clicked very unsafe I meant to click very safe
False information spread and stuff like that and why because once again some teenagers think it's funny.
I think some apps appear more believable than others such as X or instagram
I can't explain but I get vibes that people are more likely to do so
it's mostly insecure teenagers that are jealous of others and have some mental health issues that they can't or don't know how to resolve but there are many teens that just think it's normal to bully others and do these things on social media because of their upcoming like family and friends
tiktok mostly has many teens on it reposting and posting on their accounts being racist and sexist transphobia and homophobia
young teens don't care abt safety on social media they don't care abt illegal activities that they do and they don't care abt consent it's very sad seeing things like that from other young teens and even hurtful because of the fact that so many teens feel unsafe
respect from my eyes is always given but when disrespected it's taken back
hopefully good and safe but with many teens now i fear it might be chaotic
Girls because they want to follow there friends
People who have been exposed to this behaviour at a young age are more likely as it is and has been in their brain for a long time
On some social media apps it is a lot easier to share images, texts and videos and then remove them to stop getting caught than it is on other apps
A lot of young people need to learn that actions have consequences, even online actions
If someone does not earn my respect, I do not believe they are entitled to it
A lot more mixed between Protestants and catholics and more acceptance of eachother
Everyone Is different and depending on your group of people who you surround yourself in some of these behaviours can be influenced within groups or families etc
Sortive the similar as it is now, traditions and religion stay the same as some families have these traditions in their blood
Sharing of sensitive photos from Snapchat
Multicultural and hopefully more secular
insecure people and those with controversial  - upbringings
snapchat is mostly used as screenshots and screen recordings are shown to the creator of the antisocial behaviour
false information on issues regarding religion and race being an increasingly common issue within young people and social medias
Some people may have a mental disability which sees them as being more vulnerable than others to forcefully giving up money or being bullied for expressing their interests.
Some people believe that their private conversations will be kept private as they trust the person that they send vulnerable photos to. However it is easier for people to share conversations without someone knowing.
Older people expect it from young people while they do not reciprocate the respect
Hopefully improved with less drug abuse in the city centre
The people who show least respect to young people are other young people.
I think that have jealousy towards other young people want to behave this way and people who are bullies as they will do more behind a screen than in person. These people find it funny to behave this way and they find enjoyment in trying to effect others lives.
A behaviour that is more likely to happen on snapchat is cyberbullying as many young people today use it, they are able to make group chats and send photos and videos which people can use these to cyberbully. Tiktok and instagram can have behaviours like trolling, for example people making fake accounts of other people and sharing photos or videos of them, another example could be making rude comments on peoples posts.
I think that Northern Ireland will be a better environment in 25 years' time.
someone who is bored and has nkthing better to do in their life
A person who is lacking in maturity and believes their social status on and offline is much more significant than it actually is.
A lot more is likely to happen on Snapchat like sharing pictures and bullying as the messages are deleted unless you change your chat settings
I believe it will be similar to what it is now but perhaps with less sectarianism among Protestant and catholics
Posting online about other people is more likely to be done by a classmate because it's more personal
The social environment will be more cross community
It can be seen as cool or ‚Äúpeer pressure‚Äù
young people who are not happy in themselves like to cause other people to be sad
young people can protray themselves as different people on social media and can be nasty and evil towards other young people on social media so that they can be invisable
social media consumes some young people's lives 24/4 and i know that this is not good for young people's minds and mental welbeing
most young people do not know what respect if now
Northern Ireland is over populated and the amount of groups and gangs of foreign national people is causing so much strain and financial pressure on this country. this country is not going to be in a good place in 25 years time, it will be unrecognisable and people's morals, values and society as a whole is going to be in a poor state
People who are uneducated on the harm these behaviors can cause or trying to hurt someone without fully considering the consequences
Different safe measures on different apps
Less segregated as more and more children are growing up without religion or aren't strictly religious anymore
people who are bullies and not happy people
People being rude and hiding beside a mask or fake identity
Selling drugs, nudes and personal information. It can remain blocked due to privacy settings
people who have no friends or a bad home life because they feel bad about themselves and want to make others feel bad about themselves too
it'll either have gotten very hostile, or it will be the same as it is now
anyone as there are ways to hide your identity so people never know who is behind the acts
it may get worse unless some things r acknowledged.
Probably people who are rough and have grown up in bad backgrounds, I don't know.
Probably sending nudes and links to scams and getting personal information on Snapchat would be more easier than on platforms were there's more protocols like instagram with a more rigorous process of adding a person compared to Snapchat
They are so so so so so so and I can't emphasise it enough so so so engulfed in their social media status/life/appearance, friends/follower count, talking stage count, nudes collected, snap score and all the sorts, that they have lost any aspect of actual social skills. I know this won't be read by anyone and the likelihood of this changing is minimal. But ima just vent real quick. I could count on one hand the amount of people I know, and I know a decent amount of people, who I could actually bring somewhere and not have to worry about wether or not they feel anxious about being with so many people or that they won't know how to talk to people or to just bring somewhere to socialise. My best friend is one of the only guys I know who can talk to anyone, wether that's adults, elders, younger people, as well as I can and I wouldn't even say I've great social skills. Growing up around a family who's pretty well known in my local town, I was constantly around my parents talking to people who I had never seen and would never see again yet when I saw them talking it felt to me as if they were great friends, which I feel as if I've adapted into my life when I'm about the town on a Saturday and buying something in a shop or ordering a takeaway. Teenagers now worry about calling a fucking takeaway, like are you serious. My friend also grew up in a similar sort of situation so the idea of people our age not being able to socialise and talk to people off the phone just seems like a science fiction movie to us. As well as that, now with all young people, everyone's a fucking slag, not one particular gender but everyone. Now obviously I'm going to direct towards the girls here but I have friends who will talk to so many girls as if it is normal to have about 8 girls on a roster then refresh that roster in the span of 2 weeks. With girls nowadays, you have to have a week of talking to them, then you follow their socials, then you have to be careful of the posts you like on social media, then you can't have any sort of romantic activity without it being broadcast on social media and I'm not taking about sex but even something as minimal as buying a girl flowers could be seen as the ‚Äúickiest‚Äù thing ever or the cutest thing ever but you won't know that because the girl your talking to actually likes talking stage 5 better. Then they go out and fuck talking stage 2 but complains to talking stage 4 that romance is dead and she can't find the right one. I'm not a misogynist, I love girls but (and I know that they're has been slags for a long time now and the teen years are the most prominent time of being a slag for most people) social media has genuinely made these girls so fucking cocky, think they're better than everyone else and has amplified the sluttiness inside of them to the max. I believe that romance is dead but those fucking hypocrites that say it piss me off. Sorry for cursing if someone's actually read this
It's been seriously lost over recent years with social media and everyone's online faces making them feel there are no consequences for their actions, showing them no consequences or benefits to disrespect/respect
Filled with immigrants who live here illegally. Not racist btw.
They way they are brought up and what they learn about social media
I think people/young people that aren't taught or spoken to about the dangerous of social media and how to be safe usually don't care what they do on social media so would engage in this .
I think online sexual exploitation is more likely to occur on Snapchat as most young people fall under peer pressure to send sexual images which can be screen shoted or saved and sent on by a second individual
I think most young people forget that social media is a disguise and that not everything is as true as it seems
Women and young girls don't usually get lots of respect from young boys or men as they believe they are superior and that women are clueless about the topics they feel strongly on
I think that it will become more positive and people will be more interested into helping
Snapchat as it's most popular with young people making them easy targets
I think personally it will still be very divided between catholics and Protestants and there will be a big move for a united ireland
People who find no benefit in life other than making others feel miserable and projecting their own insecurities onto others.
Tiktok as its basically the most popular app at the minute. Theres this ‚Äòtrend' called rage baiting going around at the moment, where people will comment obscene and horrible things on people's videos just to get a reaction out of others.
As much as I love social media, I think it's becoming the main cause of depression amongst young people in this generation.
Honestly, I think Northern Ireland will be a country with one of the highest crime rates.
Everyone as you never know who is behind the screen when you are online
That it is definitely overused by every young person in today's age
I hope that there will be a United Ireland and that catholics and protestants will no longer have tension
From what I have seen and experience young boys who are straight, they think they are the best people who deserve everything so they then try to take it and do things they know isn't right but won't care cuz they won't get reprehended
I believe that we are all human and should have human decency and be able to be nice and respectful but no one deserves more respect than others as respect is something given or earned.
I think they need to look at the children's life in school and make some kind of support to the kids as not everyone has access, information is at a low standard I learned about mental health in school and it was things I already new or things that didn't help I think when learning about mental health it shtbe learning about serious topics and about how to respect each other to then put more serious punishments in place to those who make children's life's more difficult
I have no clue I would like to hope it will improve  -  -  -
people who spend all their time online with little social interaction and things actually happening in their lives
Snapchat would be less common for images to be stolen from you without consent nowadays because it tells you when someone screenshots your chat/image
blackmail because you can easily scare people and any sort of disrespect because you can hide your identity
worse than today as much of the bad behaviour is very normalised within youth groups which will encourage it to continue on  -
people who feel bad about themselves, people who have nothing better to do or people who what others to take their side
more likely on WhatsApp and instagram than others where you cannot block I.e comments like you can on youtube
they need to understand that it's not a joke to some people I.e over sensitive and a text could be taken a certain way
More clean I.e less rubbish and less bottles and cans lying around and more green spaces, less houses/apartments
manipulation can easily happen if there is no profile to identify who the person is and it can happen if the person is not known.
Young people As they are the ones who feel more confident online than in person
Bullying Instagram,tiktok.photos being shared without consent Snapchat because lots of people use these platforms
Because they don't have to say it to your face they don't have to see the full effect of what they are saying .being behind a screen makes them feel braver
On Snapchat things like - Bullying - Blackmail  - Manipulation
People are addicted to it as in a lot of my peers say that they couldn't live without it
It's not something that is automatically there it has to be earned
I hope that things towards behaviour to eachother stays the same and that prices on things in shops go back to normal instead of outrageously high
People who are insecure and have nothing better to do. By bringing you down it makes them feel better.
It's nice to be nice if you show people respect the tend to show it back
I'm sure, I hope more people come to know Jesus  -
Miserable people who want to make others as miserable as them.
Respect is giving someone common courtesy despite your like or dislike for them, respect should not be just given it is earned by the same level of respect back.
Changing the way young people treat eachother
Yes if people don't respect you there is no point respecting them as you need respect to gain confidence in yourself. Respect also goes both ways!
Snapchat- When photos/videos are send people believe that it will be immediately deleted after being seen but it can be saved or forwarded to other people without consent.  -
Young kids are exposed to the world of social media at a very young and naive age which can lead to hem getting exploited and taken advantaged of.
Personally, I believe that respect goes both ways. It can be gained and lost at any moment depending on the situation or circumstance. So overall, if you want my respect it has to earned.
I believe that the environment will be around the same as it is now.
young people because they are easily influenced
people with no friends, bcs they are sad and borded
Abusive behaviour, because they are behind a screen.
Posting things about others are maybe more likely on instagram or tiktok than on Snapchat
It can be very harmful and young people use it too much
The environment will probably be more of an eyesore.
people can text on snapchat and the messages delete after
People with a High popularity or social standing
Respect In my opinion should only be given if the respect is mutual
Larger land area taken by houses and industry, less land for farming and agriculture, more deforestation and the destruction of nature species due to global warming, such as certain butterfly's etc.
people who don't like me -confident people/ people who try to seem confident so they act out to seem confident
-Direct abuse on Snapchat because people can directly contact you and bully you by private messaging. - -More subtle abuse on Instagram and TikTok because people can post stories/videos/posts that can be used to intentionally harm someone either by postin
-Social media needs to be less harmful, especially towards young girls because they are targeted with videos about unreachable beauty standards (eg: looking like models, always being skinny) and these can be very harmful towards girls ( I myself have expe
-Young people should be given more respect and listened to in society more than older people because it is us that will be living in the future generation and the decisions made now will affect young people and our descendants, not the older generation. O
-The environment will be affected by the decisions we make today so we need to adopt more eco-friendly approach's to life because otherwise, our environment will be destroyed in 25 years. More species will become extinct if we continue the way we do now,
I think people who have less friends or people who dont like you are more likely to engage in these behaviours because they want validation from others and want people to know they dont like you or want people to know they are better than you
Snapchat is probably one of the worst because most of the time you have everyone on there for me as an example i have nearly everyone added in my town even tho i dont know them personally and it goes the same with my friends they have everyone so to post or share something its more likely for everyone to see
I think there will still be a lot of hatred and we will still not be a full community
Unempathetic people are more likely to share embarrassing pictures of other people without their consent
More likely to happen on snapchat because that's where young people make lots of group chats to share images and rude words about others
I hate snapchat and the platform that young people have built it up to have
I'm not sure, I'd like to think that we could make change, but a poor natural environment is highly possible
They can make their identity anonymous on social media.
Snapchat is better for sending pictures which can only be viewed one time
People who want to fit in with others. I think this because they dont want to be the odd one out and be made fun off for not following what others are doing. -
i think that the sharing of confidential images and information are more likley to happen on snapchat or discord as its easy to use and there is no limit on what things can be sent on it. and people could join servers on discord to spread the things around and use snapchat to add people to spread the things there.
Less job opportunities and less places to live
Anything in Snapchat ce cause it deletes when it's opened
We use it too much and many people have to much information public
Social media I feel helps me communicate with my friends and family and it allows me to share and connect with others e.g FaceTime or share funny videos online.
I feel that respect is to respect the persons wishes and feelings but also respect it about carrying for people and making sure they feel appreciated.
I think that hopefully it will still be green and not be polluted. I hope that the crops are still growing and the flowers and still blooming.
less censorship and more privacy (like direct messages)
the person is behind a screen, hence can hide -
sharing/sending of illicit photographs etc
respect should be given in return when shown
hopefully more pleasant between religions
People are more anonymous so it's easier for individuals to be more negative to others without having to face direct consequences
Social media has a wider range of communication so it's easy for people to send photos and text each other
lonely people as they want to talk to someone
sometimes men can be creepy, and other times just classmates getting inspiration from your posts eg. outfits
I think it'll be same, this state refuses to adapt forward and still have yet to flourish and move on from the troubles.
snapchat as message disappear after so there's no proof
maybe everyone will be kind and respect on another
Snapchat because you don't know who they are by their bitmoji
Towards young females old men typically give weird comments towards us young females online
Not snapchat as you are able to choose who you add if you do not have your account private on most other apps anyone has the opportunity to have these behaviours happen
snapchat because of its sole purpose is to share messages
better because of increased environmental measures to reduce pollution and climate change
People who have had rough upbringings etc. people with poor mental health.
The way the app is designed and its popularity.
Teaching kids that not everything they see online is accurate, and that it is completely okay to be different. (Fixing beauty standards, Tackling racism)
Snap chat alot of - Innapropriate images -
I think apps that are more adult-based have more chances for people to get manipulated by them especially kids but I think apps that are more for kids or more likely for bullying to happen
No not really just that I think we should give young people more credit for heart they handle social media even though there is definitely bad instance and definitely a lot of things happen I think it could be a lot worse
Well I hope that there would be a united Ireland but I feel like we'd be on the midst of that and if that does happen there could be violence but I hope it's peaceful that's what I think I think that we'll be on the merge of either a pole or will already be in the United Ireland
vulnerable people  - young children - older people   - they do not understand the impacts of social media or the affects of being on social media
i think there will be alot of houes and no fule cars  -
Manipulation and catfishing on Snapchat - Catfishing and stalking on instagram
Young children are more likely to engage in these behaviours as they are less aware of some of the consequences that comes from these types of behaviours.
I don't think it should be used as much as it is
Everyone should feel respected no matter their age, race, religious beliefs, etc.
I think it will be the same as it is now.
Snapchat because you are able to talk to random people off quick add and they can quickly unadd or block you to save themself from consequences
like people who are depressed or stuff because they are easier to take advantage of and manipulate
people that don't have good relationships in real life
sharing explicit images without someone's consent
adults shoudnt get respect if they're disrespectful to a young person
Threats because people like to hide behind the screen and say everything they can
Black mail and stalking as it is easier to find videos/photos of people
People who have been bullied in the past, i think this because they may be trying to get revenge on people who have wronged them in the past
Its a good way to communicate with friends and family
Respect should be given to anyone unless they are undeserving of it, this could be being racist, homophobic, ageist, sexist and being rude in general -
Hopefully there will be more forested areas for young people to explore or go camping with their friends
If you don't respect someone who should at least treat them with dignity and don't treat them poorly
People who use social media too much and think its okay because its happened to them before.
Much warmer, more extreme weather, better water quality (if we get the finger out and fix it) and higher sea level.
Hopefully in a better place than it is right now, less crime less inflation eyc
People, as very well portrayed in the tv show Adolescence, have sexualized media a lot to a point where you'll often see people advertising their OFs on Instagram, this is people who are usually girls and linked to absent fathers. Also, social media has been a breeding ground for normalized racial, sectarian, misogynistic and homophobic behavior, a lot of this is from teenage boys who often want to get a rise out of people or are trying to be ‚Äòedgy' with no consequences because there's an unrestricted free media which means they can say anything
Definitely Snapchat is the easiest one for nudes because you can add friends more, it's easier and people are more likely to accept the friend requests- also the thought that it disappears after 24 hours and that you often cant view a snap more than once
It's so normalized that all teens are unaffected by it- it doesn't matter what we see because a lot of young people don't care. Even when given talks in school, young people won't care. The only place where I've seen young people care about learning new information about important issues is from TAMHI
Respect isn't always about getting along with someone, it's about accepting they have different views. Also, a lot depends person by person eg a young person may be disrespected due to recklessness, but not age. Actions aren't limited to certain ages and it's important to think of the person instead of broad statements.
More hostile- I think young people my age have been effected by the legacy issue to the extent where I believe paramilitary activity will go up again as radical students who believe they're doing the right thing will become violent again. People think it's ok to shout slurs on the street and pick on people and there's no authority to tell them otherwise. There will be a massive gap in the rich and poor after the healthcare and benefits systems have crashed. I believe the PSNI will suffer greatly as most young people don't like them or believe they should join them. Also, their improper investigations, e.g the lack of answers into Noah Donahoe's death. I also believe NI is in a position of threat as we're producing bombs for Ukraine- if their war progresses, Russia may attack us as we're not a central part of the UK and haven't been accepted into a United Ireland
people who intend to cause harm to others as social media is a way to reach many people
sharing information on whatsapp, tiktok, snapchat and instagram as theyre popular apps
strangers because they dont face any consequences
harrasement on things like snapchat and instagram because u can direct message and view profiles before and whatsapp for blackmail cause its almost completely anonymous
very warm because of temperature risings
I feel like Snapchat isn't moderated as well as Instagram is
I believe you should respect others only if they respect you, no matter the age. However there are exceptions like you respect elderly people by letting them have your seat for example and similar things.
- I think earth will not exist in 25 years time
I think that young people who don't understand the dangers of social media. These people could be manipulated without them knowing
I feel that bad behaviour could happen on Snapchat or Facebook. People can make fake profiles of you and sharing things that are false.
I think this area will be similar to what it is today or it will have little change.
Because of peer pressure and stuff like that
You should respect others because it builds trust to others it  helps you get respect in return from others around u
Climate change  more unpredictable weather  - Maybe more eco friendly cities and maybe even transports
Snapchat and Instagram as they are more accessible
I think there will be lots of litter and it may be slightly less developed than other cities in the United Kingdom.
Teenagers because they are the most active on Social Media
Sharing pictures on Snapchat compared to Instagram as Snapchat is more popular
people who have been groomed or a victim of sexual violence
the sharing of unconsensual material on snapchat since this app is notorious for grooming
i think there is a rise in hate due to the radicalisation of young people through social media promoting extreme and polarising political views
People who lack people skills and who are alone
Younger people because they are being brought up on social media and have probably seen this happing
Sharing pictures without Vincent is most likely to happen on Snapchat because it is easier to share things on it
Young people because they are clueless of what could happen
Not too bad but we should reduce carbon emissions
Those who are not valued or given enough attention from those who should care about them
Snapchat - people being taken advantage of/ fake accounts etc -
Relatively similar to what it is now, with an increase in renewable energy fueling domestic homes.
I think you should initially give everyone respect as I don't think respect is something that needs to be earned but simply manners but the respect that has to be mutual. I think in this society we have evolved significantly over these past few years and we have gotten good at respecting people of different race, gender, religion, age and disabilities but I've seen people who are from an  older generation especially online look down on the new generation and think we are less worthy I think this is because we are the most expressive and outgoing generation and I feel as though some people who are older judge and therefore respect us less as they view revealing your emotions in a sign of weakness.
People who dont care as much about school and who drink, vape and do drugs.
Snapchat as there is noone eeviewing stories or snaps sent so nudes are sent a lot for example.
It should be limited a lot and reviewed a lot as its having a bad impact in many ways
Social media is like a drug, you get hooked onto things so easily and i think that alot more people feel comfotrable to swipe on tiktok, instagram etc. And if they see a notification while they are comfortable they will fall for it
Snapchat is all about sharing photos and videos so i think it will happen most on it, its happened in my family multiple times
I think if you go along with what someone is saying is respect as you are respecting their descions
I think that you should be able to have someone to talk to whenevr you neeed it without feeling the worry of , "what are they gonna say" it should be i know this person will help me, be it a teacher, friend or an adult
I think there will still be a vilolent connection between catholics and protestants and that they will want to keep their enviroment the same, with very little change
Snapchat is more likely to have photos spread on it because it is one of its main features
you are anonymous, so you are less likely to be judged or punished
it's easier to be ruder online than in real life
people are usually hypocrites, only respecting people in their group/religion/beliefs and showing disrespect to others not in their group.
much worse with air quality and plastics
I feel like snapchat would have behaviours like blackmail and harassment as people text and snap on it more. As well as this a lot of young people I know have had inappropriate photos of them spread around snapchat. Instagram is definitely an app which has so much racism and jokes that are horrible and disrespectful. It's really normalised to joke about horrific events like 911 attacks and the influence of the nazis in WW2.
I think an overuse of social media has made young people unbothered by things like racism, gore, homophobia ect.
I think everyone should be treated with respect because everyone has different opinions and beliefs. I don't respect people who disrespect others because of things like race, religeon or sexuality.
Don't let anyone silence you. Say what you want if that's what you believe, even if its not true according to mainstream narrative
I don't respect anyone without a good reason to
I think White people will become a minority, because of replacement from immigration. I think population density will rise and this will affect people's quality of life.
I think people use social media to hide from you as they would not do certain things to ur face but behind a screen it is easier to pretend and act. Online gives people an opportunity to meet people but also to be fake
Sharing photos and comments on photos and status you may write. Sharing information or gathering information on you and your friends
Young people can sometimes be very rude and offensive to other people online as it's easier to be cruel online and sometimes a message can be taken differently than it's intended
Respect is earned and not given. I respect my elders only if they see me as a person and not a child, I will always be considerate to my elders only if they do the same back
Full of electric cars, robots in the home cleaning and doing chores, and hopefully more trees but I reckon more house, less gardens and less open space
Well, I don't know anyone personally, but I know people can do these things to others
All the things you listed can happen quite more often on apps that have public access to your profile.
I think blackmail and nude pictures are more likely to be sent on snapchat as the messages automatically delete themselves.
I feel as though social media has been the ruination of todays youth.
I believe in 25 years time that the environment in Northern Ireland will be far worse than what it is now.
Snapchat and TikTok as they are most commonly used
I firmly believe everybody deserves respect upon first meeting them, regardless of an aloof or abrasive demeanour, everybody deserves respect. However, if you treat someone with respect continually and they still do not reciprocate it, it is better to not interact with that person; there is only so much push you can give without a little pull.
Ex-partners because they feel the need to humiliate you because of anger.
Bullying, sharing indecent images and videos, humiliating and scamming usually occur most on apps from the last 8 years based on popularity: Snapchat instagram and tiktok
Snapchat is the worst app in the 21st century, I and other people I know constantly get bullied and harassed for something they sent or said years ago.
Teach children to stay off social media.
Based on the immigration that's currently happening in the UK right now, I believe in 25 years, my town will be destroyed with homeless people, scams, immigrants etc
All people deserve respect until they show signs of disrespect or that you do not need to respect them because of their opinions or action, such as being a public disturbance
Kids who don't get attention at home. They crave the attention from somewhere, and sometimes doing it the bad way works. The more attention they get, the more addicted they get and happy they are.
Snapchat is VERY popular in NI. It's used by almost everyone.
I really think there's a massive lack of respect in this country. No offense. But in my school particularly, I just dislike how our school deals with bullying. None of it is effective, kids act how they want and it's usually down to the parents acting too.
Please teach young kids about consequences of bullying. If anything, teach the parents too
They think they can't be held accountable.
Likely on Snapchat as its more private and only a few people can see
Hotter, wetter, flooding, depletion of resources.
people that don't have access to opportunities that others do
some apps have different features they can build off of
you don't have to like someone to respect them wether u hate them or not always try to respect them if you think it is right and if it is not right don't do it out of disrespect even tell them what is right and wrong advice them
some support on how to cope with mental health and preparing for the future and give them access to more activities to do whilst out
i believe we will all be a united ireland due to the fact that N.I is now mainly catholic so the next time it comes up it will be mainly catholic and major changes will take place
People who already show manipulative attitude in real life
Some encourage certain behaviour such as misinformation on Facebook due to it's olde age and Snapchat enciteages sharing of photos
The problem is how young people view and respect eachother and not socail media as a lot of good things come from socail media and help connect otherwise isolated people
Often people treat respect as an authority and respect as a person as equal and interchangeable
Hopefully less bigotted as it becomes more diverse
Children who think it is amusing, adults who know who to target or how it works, or elderly who aren't used to or don't understand how technology works
Apps such as Tiktok or others like it have younger or less mature audiences and so are either targeted by others or are able to target others in ways such as phishing, scamming or sexual posts, and it is hard to protect yourself on apps where it easy to bypass security measures as well as harder to control what you see
If it continues as it has been, it will be hopefully slightly better, however, it will most likely be similar to the situation now
I think people who have been or are in an abusive house hold or relationship and have done drugs or who are a phycopath  -
Harassment, blackmail, racism, sexism, homophonic behaviour and other things that are related to those
I feel like if you respect someone they should respect you back and if they do not you should not respect them
Hopefully much clearer of drugs and crime  -
Because on social media they don't have to reveal their identity and may think that their actions have no consequences.
On snapchat it's much easier to add users and create group chats. Also fake accounts are much easier to set up.
Social media can help young people connect and share ideas, but it can also be a strong platform for cyberbullying and unrealistic comparisons.
Respect is about understanding that everyone has their own story and experiences. It's about valuing those differences and treating others how you'd like to be treated.
I think people are more likely to engage with this online rather than in person because they can hide their identity and think they won't face any consequences
Images could be more likely shared on snapchat because you can set a timer on snaps and therefore there won't be evidence after how many seconds the snap can be seen for
Hopefully better, but we need to sort out our own issues before we allow other people to enjoy our nation.
More chance of someone getting pictures of you on Snapchat with out knowing since they can make a sticker out of it and it saves to their phone without the person who sent it knowing
snap chat, as a lot of young people use it to connect
not too sure, hopefully a cleaner environment with more educated young people
Strangers as they do not have any physical contact with you so they are not afraid to do what they do
Bullying as people feel protected behind a screen compared to being face to face. Scamming/phishing/hacking as it is much easier to do these things online than in person.
Not too sure, it entirely depends on future events and whether Northern Ireland maintains part of the UK or not.
Ruthlessness as there are no consequences
Instagram and x  generally have more graphic content available
Still a division but more passive less obvious
Hopefully the bull about which side is better is sorted pit im sick of the prod cath debate
People who haven't had the right up bringing
Because have no balls to do it in real life
Older people because they don't understand
Bullying because they can stay  anonymous -
Good to live in  and we move past religion
I think stalking would be likely on apps like Instagram or Snapchat, since people usually reveal their identity there compared to other platforms like Twitter/X where people (especially young people) are now a lot less likely to do so.
It is really easy to get drawn into social media on a daily basis, and it is quite the opposite of that to exit it, especially on highly-engaging platforms like TikTok or Instagram. It is also very easy to simply go onto these platforms when you feel lost/bored/unsure on what to do.
I think eventually there will be more equality between people and that we will have a much greater understanding of young people and the effects society has on them.
The same as it is right now I don't think it will change but hopefully it does for the better
Selfish people because they only care about themselves.
People who have suffer from  bullying or harassment
I think younger people like teens or young adults would do this as social media has spoken about scams but also given people the ability to scam and harm younger people because you truly don't know who is behind the screen and it could be anyone.
Because they are online and can sent it to people as its easy and there could be group chats you may not be aware of. It's more likely to happen as people can feel pressured into given these photos or videos.
Honestly, I'm not sure how the environment would be.
More relaxed in terms of communities living in the same areas eg catholics and protestants
Surprise dick pics happen often on Snapchat - Gore videos on Instagram reels - Tiktok for bullying
I think most people my age grew up with unrestricted Internet access and we shouldn't have. It has ruined us.
Us young people should not have to respect older people simply because of their age, we get 'respect your elders' while they tell us 'respect is earned' in what world is that fair. -
people who are creeps and r mentally unwell and think that it's funny or enjoy hurting other people
tiktok has different things like sharing posts, lying about selling goods, blackmail,
young people because they have still more to learn
fights because they are so easy to start
Lots of rubbish and sense of no care for the natural beauty
Children and youth that are not punished for doing wrong and individuals who hate their own life
To make sure young people have consistent teachers and are taught properly within schools
I think there will be too many immigrants
Because it is much easier to do online and you can hide your identity so you cant find out about who might be doing this stuff.
Most of the people if not all them will be junkies or they will be dead.
snapchat or instagram, due to being able to send messages to each-other and sending pictures. they're also popular amongst young people. immaturity is a big thing also when it comes to young people and apps like these.
Insecure people, because they're behind a screen
Easier to blackmail people when you're not doing it in person
on things like snapchat you can choose who can see your story so people like to screenshot things you have posted and say something about it without your knowledge
i'd say most things would be the same but maybe it would be a bit safer for women
People are more likely to do things they wouldn't usually do on Snapchat because everything disappears on it
Drugs are quite popular among teenagers and I think there will be a rise in druggies and a homeless people especially you get people who hate school
The average people who use different social media i.e. typically young people use snapchat
Older people trying to gain access to contact with younger generations
Illegal substances on snapchat or threatening behaviours
Hopefully less secterian and more communiting
Younger teenagers as they tend to be more disrespectful and less informed on a hooves they should make
More things shared on snapchat as it's used for communication
Should cut down on amount of time spent on it each day
if you mean who do this then scammers - if you mean people who fall for it then kids
When it comes to young people it depends on how smart they are when they're on social media, they just should be smart about it and watch what they do on it.
People only deserve respect from others if they respect them.
Hopefully better than what the worlds environment is today.
Younger people that have been advertised things like this on social media there is no group which i would say are more likely but there is obviously people that will be more likely too. -
Snapchat would have more talking and sharing of phots and such while instagram would be more posting photos fdrom a trip or sharing posts or reels.
I dont know if there will be a Northern Ireland in 25 years. So i cannot say but if there was I would say it would be not much different to now except instead of there being a a loyalist vs republican divide there will be more of a divide between right and left like in America
Multicultural society, leading to even more racism
People who are bored and don't know the consequences of social media
Stalking will be more likely on Instagram and TikTok due to the huge population.
There is a stereotype on young people meaning all young people must be disrespectful
Here's a fact for you no one wants to do a 1,000 questions about there personal lives
Oh my god how long is this gonna take  -
Sharing personal photos because you love eachother
I think if you treat others with respect you will be treated with respect -
Older men as they are often caught out for doing these things
Instagram because it is easy to see pictures and chat to people easily on DMs
I think we use it too much and not always for good
I think a lot of teenagers will be involved in crime and bad behaviour
Sharing of info/photos is more common on Snapchat vs other texting apps as well as selling illegal items is more common on Snapchat too
Depends if we combat environmental dangers like global warming in that time
Snapchat would be Sharinf bad images of people as a form of bullying
more mean comments may be said on snapchat rather than instagram as it is more privste
if used correctly it is a safe and fun environment but you always get some immaturity online
moving around the world travelling on my mountain bike
Younger people, as they aren't respected as much, they use this as a way to gain respect and have power over someone else.
I think snapchat as it is easier to hide behind the screen and share peoples photos and information.
I believe young people shouldn't be looked down on because of their age and should be more heard.
I do not think that the sectarianism with get any better or worse as its influenced from a very young age, however, due to what is happening in the North, I hope in the upcoming years woman will be in a more safe place and actions are put in place to stop woman's violence
i don't understand the question your asking i'm sorry
snapchat there would be more inappropriate pictures and behaviour
People who are physically and mentally less mature than the average teenager/child
Should be a bit controlled e.g people who talk bad about others should be reprimanded
Relatively the same but you can never predict the future
Snapchat is used for bullying and group chats are made to bully someone because they may think it is funny
it is the number one cause of rumours and harrassment
it goes two ways, if someone doesn't respect me I don't respect them
People who are insecure in factors of their life you are not, trying to project their problems on to you. There is also a lot of peer pressure involved especially in apps where social connection is the main focus.
As Snapchat holds people accountable for screenshots and sharing images, I would say it is less likely for images to spread there. Apps such as Instagram and discord create a shame-free space to share images without consent such as explicit images and blackmail.
I would say with the progression of social media, especially over the pandemic people have gotten too comfortable sharing information about others and causing deliberate harm with the false safety that they are behind a screen and don't feel there are consequences to their actions. As a victim of cyber bullying many would say to just turn your devices off, however the damage has already been done and it affects your mental health greatly. Paranoia was a main issue I faced as I was afraid of what was being said and shared about me affecting my real life relationships even if it was clear I was the victim in the situation.
making sure that if anyone have problems with anything they can always trust some one to speak up
People who are struggling in their own life may find comfort in inflicting pain on others, another reason is that people may resort to some of these actions as they feel they have no other option.
Being anti-social is much more common as you have the ability to not be know or you may not have to physically interact with the person.
I believe that the majority of anti-social behavior on social media is is vastly exaggerated in a way, this is because I see online countless stories of people experiencing harassment or hacking but have never experienced it and never knew someone who experienced it.
I believe respect is relatively common where I am situated but I do know that many unlike me, especially my age are not treated to the same standard
I can't be certain but i believe it should improve through the progression of the spread of information.
Hate crimes,bullying and stalking since you are using a diffrent  name and people do not know you
Around the same as it currently is, maybe slightly worse
People who are on lots of social media platforms, and are frequently posting or browsing.
People use instagram quite transparently
A lot of the time, a lack or respect derives  from external pressure, and aggravation found from the home environment, or in school.
I can only see it getting better, more diverse, and probably more accepting. At least compared to what it used to be.
Children who come from troubled homes often engage in bad behaviour on social media. I think it's because they don't understand that what they are doing is wrong and possibly hurtful to others. -
Snapchat as it's the most common app to message friends on.
i dont actually know  - mabey one day it will be good
They are too scared of confrontation in real life
Photos would be sent around more on Snapchat as there are group chats and stickers
The same, slightly better if electric cars become more popular
I believe that younger teenagers are more vulnerable to engage in dangerous online activity due to their naivety, their lack of experience online and their lack of knowledge of the dangers of online.
I believe that black mail of nude pictures is much more likely to occur on snapchat than instagram or TikTok. This is due to the fact snapchat can delete chats immediately after viewing, meaning there is no accountability for the blackmailer and they can say whatever they like.
I hope that it will have improved and the litter regulation will have become more strict and parks will have become much cleaner
A lot of people seem to be more confident on social media when it comes to talking down on people because there behind a screen
Apps the are more for texting instead of entertainment will be more prone to situations like this
Majority of young people are easily manipulated into doing bad actions as the usual teenager has poor maturity
Ireland will most likely become a United Ireland due to the UK governments financial hardship maintaining NI
Those who are ill informed about the world and those who have problems of their own
I think quite people who hate people for no reason are most likely to to do this
Teachers are so awful at respect. They think because they are more 'powerful' they can move absolutely horrible.
Because your true identity can be hidden
Blackmail, photos being shared without your consent, bullying
Parents should be more aware of what their children are doing online
I was brought up with respect and I will always try to demonstrate that
Hopefully with the support of psni people will show respect in their neighbourhoods
Bully's, people that are vile, people that aren't comfortable with themselves, people who aren't respected (them doing this, might just be the reason that they aren't respected)
Put strong age ratings on apps. Don't just advice an age rating, if the person is not 13, DONT LET THEM IN SNAPCHAT
You don't just be given respect you either gain it or demand it, it's all about being confident
Make sure that it is all of the above because older people have to learn that we are the future of the planet
I'm actually quite scared for it because older people (30+) keep electing nut jobs to run our country's which they don't know how to run
Children where parents are unsure what they are doing and not keeping up to date with the challenges being online brings.
Increased anti social behaviour and addictions.
Because on social media they can hide behind a screen, and are less likely to get in trouble for their actions online compared to real life.
I feel respect should be earned and shouldn't necessarily be handed out to people if they are undeserving of it. Not respecting people doesn't always mean your being rude to them, sometimes it may just be that your choosing not to engage with them because you don't feel they deserve it.
There will probably me more litter and rubbish on the streets. Less trees as a result of them being cut down. More algae and bacteria in the local seas, rivers and lakes. More pollution in the seas, rivers and lakes as a result sealife numbers will be down. Houses will be built with air conditioning because of global warming and NI will get warmer.
Young people who aren't mentally healthy and have exposure to harmful content or excessively high screen times because they will be more vulnerable and easily influenced
Anything discriminatory and things that happen via text message would be more on Snapchat and Instagram because of the direct messaging and also because on Snapchat the messages can disappear.  - Anything about harmful content being posted would be on TikTok because of the fact the whole app is about posting videos and also Snapchat because of private stories. - Anything about hacking or financial issues can be on any app but probably Instagram and WhatsApp because it has a lot of your information
I think more safety measures and support for victims should be put in place
Hopefully a lot more integrated and inclusive between the main communities but also ethnic minorities as well.
Random bored men with nothing better to do
It has great benefits but it also open doors for addictions
They're behind a screen so they think they can do whatever they want
I honestly can't imagine what it will be like
older people looking to take advantage of younger ones
younger people are more likely to be taken advantage of on apps such as tiktok or Instagram as it is very easy for others to get in contact with them
I imagine it will be similar to how it is now
Posting gory videos on instagram reels and Reddit to get lots of shares and comments to try and make money
People in N.I should be a lot more respectful
People who don't like themselves or their life. People who don't particularly like you or are motivated by hate, for another person or group. Like racists, sectarians or homophobics.
Apps like snapchat, photos and videos can only be shared to friends so it is more likely if someone was to attack you personally they would do it on snapchat, possibly in groups, whereas the likes of instagram are public for anyone to view so if someone was to attack another on their is would be more likely motivated to humiliate that person.
The amount of privacy around account can be dangerous. Especially if someone was to make an anonymous account to deliberately hurt another person, if there is no way of identifying this person the victim could get really hurt. - Also things on social media never really stay on social media, a lot of the time it escalates to a point people are being harassed in public.
As a younger person I feel as though adults expect me to respect them, without reciprocation . Making it difficult to share ideas or boundaries of my own. Especially in school and the workplace.
People don't care enough about it now, likely full of litter and the dirty rivers will end up polluting the water supply.
Younger people, as they have been influenced by social media & friends to act mean, dishonest and bullies.
Tiktok, Wizz, Twitter/X And because these are all photos you can share apps on, even anonymously.
I hope it will be cleaner than ever, and people more polite. but i don't know if it ever will be:(
Younger unknowning children and unknowingly elderly
We should treat everyone with respect,  no matter age , race and even if they don't deserve it
I think the environment will become more accepting of new ideas and ways of life
Doxxing (sharing your private infomation)
Educating adults like parents and teachers, on how to help children, I feel kids know enough it's now up to the adults around them to help
Hopefully good, but probably not, not enough people care
Boys and girls who are insecure about themselves
Tiktok and Snapchat because people send pictures off people around on Snapchat and tiktok people stalk people reposts to know more about them
The effect of homophabia and racism and sexism can have on people's mental health, and you might think it's funny and a joke but it can really effect other people
If we do not change the way we pollute and dispose off rubbish coastal areas will be flooded, land fill over filling, unstable water security in summer, BIG PLUS with rising temperature we'll be able to grow grapes and sell our own wine
Younger children as they want to be involved and usually make fake accounts to comment and troll people online
Anti bullying on Snapchat, TikTok and instagram is where it happens the most but can be placed on any social media platform
Terrible, if no one does something now to change it, it never will
Hopefully integrated but, probably will be the same.
people who come from bad backgrounds and who bully others are more likely to do this behaviour -
blackmail and stalking are more likely to occur on apps like snapchat and whatsapp whereas hacking accounts is more likely to occur on facebook and instagram
i think we will hopefully be even less divided by sectarianism  -
Different to what it is now, more communication between people and communities
People who are not fully aware of the consequences of their actions
Respect is the key foundation for any and every relationship, no matter who it may be with.
I think that Northern Ireland will be a catholic majority in 25 years as it has been increasing and eventually passed the protestant number of people recently. I believe this will help contribute to the two health services joining together to reduce waiting lists as there has been talk of that in the papers recently. I also think that eventually Ireland will once again become united and all 32 counties will be one country.
honestly i think men because there's not that many good male role models
snapchat and instagram more than anything because u can share photos
it's bad for young people and there should be more measures for someone young to be able to access it
older people need to also have respect for the younger generation
i would like to hope things would be better but i don't think that will - happen i think things will get alot worse
teenagers and older people as they know its mostly teens on social media
lower class people, i donkey know why, I just see people be more wrapped up in them activities specifically selling drugs and tapes, also people who have little friends nevermind people to support them
basically all of them on Snapchat for people you know and effect you directly however twitter and discord are also bad for stuff like that worldwide
VERY BAD FOR MENTAL HEALTH AND FOCUS, I DONT ENJOY MY TIME ON SOCIAL MEDIA I JUST FEEL BAD AFTER DESPITE THE CONTWNT I CONSUME TO BE HAPPY AND RELTAVLE (I DELIBERATELY DONT CONSUME SAD CONTENT AS I KNOW THAT WILL BE REFLECTED IN MY WELLBEING, I USE SOCIAL MEDIA AS A FORM OF PROCRASTINATION FOR MY HOMEWORK ABD REVISION AND CHORES AND STUFF)
it goes two ways, if u treat me with respect I'll treat you with respect, however I will always from the offset treat someone with respect
hopefully, still green if we are talking nature, probably hotter cause of climate change, but community environment will probably be more divided i think, more people are becoming louder about the beliefs, which i think is a good thing, change is needed in many aspects of our country, however others will have contradicting beliefs which will cause arguments, riots, etc.
i feel like teenage boys between the ages of 13-17 are most likely to engage in these types of things because i personally have experienced these things and it has all been with boys in that age range
because young teenage boys send inappropriate pictures to girls and if they don't send one back they harrass them
Since they are behind a screen it's easier to face them than in person
People who generally have less respect for themselves and others, as well as those who are overly bored and find it entertaining or stimulating. Some may take out their own frustrations on others this way through the veil of social media
I think it is important to highlight that you can respect someone without agreeing with their views. I also think everyone should treat each other with a basic level of respect, unless they do something to lose it. Deeper respect has to be earned
I think, unless anything drastic changes, it will be somewhat more polluted than it currently is
Snapchat because images are only seen once
no i think social media builds friendships and it is good in ways
more mixed community still problems but not as much less fighting and more mixture. - brighter
Stalking is more likely to be done by people who know me or have known me, but on a whole I would say most would be done by adult men.
Snapchat is most likely to share information about you because it is seen as the main form of communication now and people can also post on it with no guidelines.
Hopefully less CO2 emissions and less litter on the street. Also more sustainable resources being used and more greenery.
People who've been brought up in a way which has lead them to believe it's ok to act in these ways, possibly sexist or racist people are more likely to participate in these innapropriate hurtful activities
Some apps like snap cover it up more so people think it's ok
Respect is earned and is a two way system, don't expect respect when you cannot respect others, no matter what age you are.
Probably not very good due to the amount of litter and c02 being released
Teenagers as they show off infront of their friends just to try bring people down
some people are just more likely to do stuff like that than other people
if theres not a united ireland things will go bad
Young people who feel they have no one looking out for or caring for them as they may feel they are worthless
Sharing photos without consent and bullying is most likely to happen on Snapchat because it is an app revolving around sending photos and chats, therefore things can be shared easily
Although social media can be dangerous, it can also be used in many positive ways and this is why so many young people enjoy spending time on social media
I would hope that there would be less conflict in Northern Ireland and that peace would be made between people
Actually understand how young people feel and why their mental health may be affected
People who have a lot of confidence in themselves or are immature because they don't care about others and miss use social media.
Snapchat because a lot of people use this app to contact people.
I feel like people will not look after the environment and it will be a mess
i dont know who but people behave that way online rather than in real life cause they're cowardly and know that it's unacceptable behaviour but it's okay cause its ‚Äújust online‚Äù
with the violence against women rates increasing it could be a terrifying place for a woman to live in 25 years
less confrontational, hiding behind a screen, sneaky, and hateful
People who may not have much of a life outside of social media and be bored so they use social media as an outlet. Also people who may be poor might use blackmail too gain money. Lastly old men who are pedos or who are really horny will try to do things on social media like send d pics or text you inappropriate stuff
For example on tiktok there are community guidelines so not much bad things can be seen on tiktok but for example on snapchat you can send whatever you want on a snap so there is more freedom
Parents need a license and training to be able to have a child to avoid children being born in a bad environment. The care of children should also be looked at as in like children in care homes. Looking into social media would be good but I don't think going into schools to tell children about mental health will work as not many people would actually act there mental health if anything they need encouragement like say a teacher they love that makes them want to go into school everyday. You should be trying to prevent mental health not trying to give ways for children too deal with it
I think it will be the same but there won't be as much of a community as everyone won't go outside as much
People who want to earn easy money, who do t care who they hurt
Because people can create false profiles and have a level of anonymity on social media
probably snapchat because messages can be changed to delete immediately so evidence can be hidden and never showed again
I think people just need to be sensible online and think before they do something because actions can have serious consequences
I feel as though age shouldn't matter. i don't think "we should respect our elders" is a correct statement. Personally i believe you have to gain someone's respect, and if someone is not treating you with respect, you shouldn't feel the need to respect them
Its not real life so you can't see their reaction so the people doing it don't feel as guilty. - Also you can pretend to be someone else.
Blackmail and sharing of photos without consent is more common on snapchat and whatsapp as they are social media apps specifically designed for talking and sending photos.
I think we use social media too much and spend on it too much. Especially since lockdown.
I think the animosity in Northern Ireland between republicans and loyalists will have decreased significantly. But I think that the negative opinions towards ethnic minorities will rapidly increase.
ex boyfriends/ girlfriends possibly as revenge or as they are annoyed
snapchat as all young people i know use it
random people who are bored and insecure
a lot easier and more accessible to share around stuff on snapchat and tiktok
Making schools more aware of how to deal with anxiety and panic attacks
teenagers because it's easy to spot and easy to manipulate
Social media can be very back in forth in the sense that it can help people drastically with social skills and friends but on the other hand can ruin lives thru black mailing ect
In my opinion I think it could be either very close knit community across the country if our government was able to form a decent alliance together but if not it could get worse and worse
I believe Christians are more likely to bully or discriminate LGBTQ individuals due to their religious beliefs.
It is more likely on say Snapchat as photos can be easily screenshoted and sent around with little to no control for the victim as on Instagram at least users can be reported for their actions.
Many don't respect people due to their sexuallity or due to being part of the LGBTQ community -
I believe it will be a more hostile place if nothing is done to educate and help young people to be more accepting of others
Snapchat - disappearing messages and snaps
Young people are actually better than adults on social media
Not forcing mental health so much on young people its a thing everyone should know but it's forced and drilled into our heads already
I think those who have gained things by doing it on social media before are more likely to do it, and possibly those who are friends with people who do it and they've seen what you can get and try themselves
Snapchat, more likely to get catfished or made send nudes as fake profiles are so easily made
Social media is such a distraction, especially when big exams like GCSES are coming
It's being used carelessly since young people are sending stuff behind a screen not thinking of the consequences that could happen from their actions.
I believe someone who feels disrespected at home would be more likely to engage in this behaviour, to make others feel unhappy with their lives as well.
Probably will have more air pollution from fossil fuels thoughout the country. Less insects and bees around Northern Ireland.
people who feel as though they're only option is to try and drag others down as they themselves are unhappy
People with nothing better to do with their time and decide to make others feel worse for personal gain
Nudes are more likely to be leaked on Snapchat as most young people use that app to meet new people online
Most likely heading towards all Ireland but hopefully a safe place to live
People who don't feel happy or loved at home
TikTok because people have gotten meaner
Social media is ruining peoples mental health and deception of themselves
People should always respect eachother as no one is better than anyone else
Hopefully it will be better but lost likely there will still be a lot of hostility
Often males are more often in personal experience
People who are bored, unhappy with themselves, and looking for validation in their friends thinking theyre funny
People sometimes act dofferent behind a keypad
Sharing over peoples inappropriate photos/vids
i think it will be worse than it is now and think there will still be no peace between both cathloic sides and protestent
younger people who aren't confident and lack the power to do it in person
bullying, most people don't have the courage to do it in person
can be very misused and immature at times
unless we make changes, not great. I think wild life and landscapes will struggle greatly.
Social media allows people from all over the world to communicate fake accounts can be a brutal way of abusing social media  -
if it's used right then there should be no issues
Everyone should be treated with respect it shouldn't matter age or anything else
raising more awareness for mental health and the different affects that it can have on young people, i think parents need to be educated on it and get their children help instead of judging them or calling them dramatic
Bullies/ someone who knows they can take advantage over someone
less responsibility. not face to face. easy, it is only 1 click -
used as networking. used to cause jealousy.
Abused in school, teachers expect to be respected even when disrespectful to pupils, and try to force their ideas onto students (religious studies)
Young people as they don't care about the consequences that will come afterwards.
Bullying, harassment and racism etc are more common on Snapchat as it's a platform that nearly every young person uses.
Social media ruins young people's relationships due to it influencing them to make bad decisions
Young people tend to never get respected by adults due to their age and experience.
people that are jealous because they want to be you and don't want to see you succeed
Sharing photos on Snapchat as it's easy to send and even easier for someone to save it
I hope that it's peaceful and there's no division between the people
It is easier to get away with and people are often too afraid to say hurtful things in person.
Snapchat is the most  likely because things delete after 24hrs or as soon as you view them meaning that people dont think they will have to face the consequences of their actions
I think it will be a safer place either way less crime activity as we are getting further away from the troubles and hopefully people will steer away from being in paramilitaries because they will have dissolved by then
Respect is earned, if someone disrespects you and they are older doesn't mean you HAVE to respect them
Anybody as you are behind a screen and feel like you can get away with it.
Sharing of photos on Snapchat as it is easier.
Young boys/ men as they have a lot of hate towards young girls/ women due to some of the things portrayed in media from men directed towards other men and boys
Things like this are more likely to appear on instagram or twitter/X as they have less restrictions on what can be uploaded compared to the likes of tiktok, snapchat, or youtube.
Yes, social media can be harmful for young people but if they have enough sense and the correct knowledge on social media it can be a great place to make friends, meet new people, and to learn about things like new or different cultures and traditions.
Respect goes both ways and older people should not expect respect back from young people if they are not showing that same respect towards them.
In the next 25 years i can see a bright future for northern ireland and the people who live here. i also believe that we will have a united Ireland in the next 25 years.
People don't see each others faces so they think it's alright to engage in these behaviours when it really ain't but I don't so I really don't care what other people do
Not really probably just about us being addicted to tiktok which isn't bad really cus i myself use it to watch news like what's going on with Ukraine and Tump
Hackers or young people trying to hove a ‚Äúlaugh‚Äù
I feel as if many young people are very vulnerable to situations like these. As many are not taught the dangers of the internet. Social media also creates that mask of people behind the screen and younger people tend to be more trusting as they do not know any better which may lead to unsafe environments such as these
Blackmail of inappropriate images is SO common on Snapchat nowadays. I feel as if it's because it is so easily accessible and all it takes is one blackmail or peer pressure for someone to send an explicit image
The amount of body shaming and hate crimes on young people is astounding like so many young kids are coming online to be bombarded by al these negative comments which is so Normalised
I feel as if many people are very disrespectful to theirs peers. As yes many of us will have different opinions and views but just because you do not agree with a certain viewpoint doesn't mean you have to verbally and physically disrespect others. I feel as is disrespect is also very normalised in this community
I think it will be full of people in serious struggle. So many of the young people today are completely absorbed in drugs and alcohol that they have given up on thier education which therefore means in the future many will struggle finding jobs ect
Younger people are more likely to engage because they are young and think it won't matter in a couple years time
Some people feel that they are more likely to get away with certain things on certain platforms so they take advantage of them
In schools and at home the dangers are not talked about enough so many young people aren't aware of the dangers and when something does happen they have no idea how to deal with it
near enough destroyed due to the levels of pollution and lack of fossil fuels
People who may of grew up in households that may of experienced a sort of trauma
Snapchat because that's how many young people in Northern Ireland use it to contact each other
Very popular place to grow up and develop your skills and abilities in terms of work and social skills
snapchat is more easier and every one has it
I think anyone is more likely to engage in these behaviours on social media because many people find it easier to take part in immoral activities when not in person as they feel safer and more comfortable
i feel that social media such as twitter and snapchat would have a higher chance of any of the beforehand mentioned behaviours being taken part in happening because of the actual capabilities that the app allows such as screenshotting, private messaging as well as the general reputation that the app already has as if people actively take part in such behaviours mentioned and no action is taken then it is just more likely to happen again
Young people are treated with disrespect due to stereotypes regarding age
It will either be effected by global warming just like the rest of the world or stay about the same
Older people, they may think that younger people wouldn't know better and that they are easier to exploit
Cyber bullying on Snapchat as it is less public
Around the same as it is right now, possibly more litter around the streets
I think people are more likely to get exploited on Snapchat because it's easier to send and share
it's more anonymous online compared to outside social media
Some apps show that you are screenshotting something whereas other apps keep that hidden
People feel that they have more power behind a screen and gain more confidence.
Photos are more likely to be sent around on snpchat as you are sharing it with your close friends unlike instagram is about sharing photos of good times.
Young people do not have enough of it, kids are brought with with less and less of it every year. I am fortunate my mum and dad taught me well but 80% of young people do not have respect for teachers, their own parents and workers in public fields such as a leisure centre.
I think guardians are likely to engage because they would want to protect their children.
For example, someone would more likely to hack into your account on TikTok/instagram than on YouTube in my opinion.
Most likely worse as if it is getting worse around the world, then it is very likely to get worse in Northern Ireland.
People who dislike their target or have something to gain from their target's grief
Acts like these are more likely to happen on snapchat due to how easy it is to impersonate someone or hide your identity to somebody who may not know how to decipher between a real or fake account
Young people have far more access and knowledge about how to make full use of social media and social media marketplaces than many older people know themselves or think that young people know
Respect is earned, regardless if I like that person or not, if they earn respect then they get respect.
Confidentiality with mental health concerns, regardless of what the concerned individual thinks, I believe it is up to the person who is suffering to decide who knows they are suffering
I think Northern Ireland will be very similar to how it is currently
Respect also depends on the circumstances.
Teenagers as they cannot get away with it in real life
Bullying and sexual harassment happen a lot on Snapchat as anyone has access to it and it is easy for someone to be a victim to it
Immature, less educated, unemployed people because they are bored.
Stalkers on Snapchat due to location sharing function
To check on students home life as some people can seem more depressed and you can see the difference in them
There will be more young people unemployed or working in trades or have no job because people are not liking school because they  don't care about grades
They feel more safe behind a screen and they know they would be shamed in a face to face conversation.
Many young people waste large portions of time on the various social media apps which could be better used for other activities and I believe it should be more discouraged.
Sectarianism and racism will likely wear down as people realise Catholics and protestants are similar people ad forget their differences.
they are behind a screen and don't always face consequences for their actions
it is easier to send pictures on Snapchat than other apps
it should be monitored more than it currently is
I think anyone can be at risk of engaging in these behaviours, especially if they are experiencing peer pressure or maybe don't think before they proceed to go forward with the behaviour.
I think Snapchat, Instagram and TikTok would be the platforms that would have the majority of the behaviour.
I have no idea, I hope it stays around the way it is now
Young people because people wouldnt do these things to someone in person
Snapchat deletes chats automatically which can make it the worst
They hide behind their phones and think they have no consequences
Just influences people due to it being used by everyone  -
For example on Snapchat messages delete after 24 hours
People who are struggling for money because they need money
Photos and videos being shared of someone without consent on Snapchat or tiktok more than X or Facebook
I think some people who are always on social media, particularly boys, are more likely to try and build relationships with girls via Snapchat.
Snapchat: nudes, sexting. Common because Snapchat ‚Äòdeletes' the snaps and chats u send but people screenshot them and send them around. -  - Instagram: bullying is more common because it's so easy to reach out to people you don't even know on it.
Poor. The current generation that is in power refuse to take in to account young peoples concerns. I mean just look at the state of Loch Neagh. It's the biggest Loch in the Anglo-Celtic isles and it's completely destroyed by algae due to farmers dumping faeces and letting slurry run into it. The future will only be worse here in terms of environment at the rate we are going at.
Depends on certain activities, scammers would be like more people in foreign countries that are poor, older men  would be more likely to be forming ungenuine relationships with others, a lot of online bullying pretending to be someone is more likely to be school children. Anyone with a poor up bringing and faulty morals to be honest. Although I think making mistakes even online is apart of growing up.
on Snapchat a lot easier to consume unwanted images and meet dangerous people but I say it is pretty equal on all apps. less likely to get scammed on tiktok ect but the content on tiktok is extremely influencing. when people are constantly consuming depressing or sad videos there not going to get better, promotes poor body image to be completely honest I hate tiktok but im addicted to it.
I wish phones never became so advanced, i wish tiktok was banned.
Not doing what your told can be disrespectful but depends on who or what your being asked to do. For example your teacher tells you to do your homework , you should do that out of respect. On the other hand your friend tells you to go get her bag cause she cant be bothered it is not disrespect to say no this time round, but you can do it out of kindness.
young girls they may feel intimidated insecure or threatened
snapchat photos can be sent around due to an active disliking
I think the people who are more likely to engage these behaviours are hacked and bully's because hackers are more likely to try and get your information and get money out of you and bully's may do this to make fun of you and try to get you self-esteem low
These behaviours are more likely to be seen in snapchat Instagram and Facebook because theses apps have everything you post on it and it's always public and if you delete it it will still be there it will never go away
Don't believe things people say to you don't listen to then don't let them get into your head believe in yourself don't let other bring you down and most importantly call police or and adult near you for help if anything happens don't solve these problems yourself it will make it worse and if you do just block them
Being respectful is about being kind helpful to those around you  is doesn't matter about your age, disabilities or what gender being respectful is being kind to others and helping them.
I hope it will be safe for future generations  -
They think it can he funny to do, or see it as a way take money
They can be less traceable on different apps
There will be more tolerance of religion as it will get to a stage where no one really cares anymore
People who do not respect others or do not listen to advice they are given
Hackers to gain money details or accounts
Online bullying because people think they will get away with it easier as it's online
Screen time is mad spend more time on phone in classes or social occasions missing out parts of my life
Most people think they can hide behind a screen and nobody will know who they are so they cant be punished for their actions
Inappropriate photos will be shared on Snapchat
Very safe as religious differences are becoming increasingly less of a problem
Some people might create an account and not put in their real name, so they can comment mean things on other people's posts or their friends because they're scared to say it to their face.
Need to be aware of what their actually saying because most of the time they would't be able to say it in real life so just don't be rude and young people should mind their own business
Some people clearly don't know what it is and at school, at home, anywhere families and teachers should treat children with respect and raise them right because then those kids grow up and they think they can treat people how ever way they want and speak to them  very disrespectfully. But I think that if you have self respect and if you are self aware than you would know your place and be well spoken and have respect for others.
Mental health and wellbeing are important and parents need to understand this too. Parents, schools and social media all have a role in helping young people stay healthy and happy.
there might be more pollution in the cities, loss of wildlife and natural habitats, climate related health problems and struggles with food production or water supply.  - I want it there to be cleaner air and water due to better environmental laws, better recycling and less plastic waste, protected wildlife and healthier forests and coasts and more awareness in schools and anywhere in general about looking after nature.
people of all ages who have their own problems and are projecting them onto other people so that they feel better about themselves but mostly older people who feel they can manipulate younger people who maybe don't know any different. Specifically if I had to say I think men are more likely to engage in these behaviours than women generally.
Social media use while it holds may benefits has ruined many young peoples in person communication skills.
I believe that depending on a persons upbringing and home life some people are more likely to have views which may be offensive or hurtful towards others.
Sharing indecent images and videos of people is more likely to happen on snapchat as people think because the chats disappear after 24 hours that they are deleted forever and cannot be linked back to them.
I think Northern Ireland will be less sectarian
People who take advantage of younger people who have less confidence in their authority to benefit themselves
People who's scared to say stuff out loud to other people
Bullying on Snapchat, saying rude stuff on Instagram and TikTok
Nothing left to help young people, crime rates will rise drastically
somone sharing a imaginge u dont want shared
be safe and dont do anything your supose to not do
is nice to respect other people with respect and be kind to them
i think it will be in a good state and a nice place to live and visit
people that maybe dont have a stable life at home
Young teens, particularly after a relationship/friendship breakdown. This is usually due to the fact they are struggling and want to put someone else down to or are jealous of the person they are trying to put down.
Sharing videos/information about someone online. This is due to the fact many people feel as though they can get away with posting things online about others and it is also less intimidating than going and confronting the person and having an actual conversation with them. Snapchat's private story feature also often leads to people thinking they can get away with sharing information/videos about an individual and making many young people feel as though they can get away with it due to the fact the individual they are posting about is not in the private story.
Respect can often be earned, not automatically given, no matter what age the person is it should be not an expectation to respect them if they often disrespect you.
Hard to see how it would be much different to now, however we may experience more extreme weather conditions if climate change continues to increase.
Pretending to be someone there not because you can just make accounts with their name and then pretend to be them
people who are too lazy to get a j*b and have nothing better to do with their time
on snapchat random people who could be like 25 or something might add you and start being weird, it hasnt happened to me but it did happen to my friend.
Respect goes both ways, but it kind of depends on the situation lol
It might become more polluted and more impacted by climate change
U can hide behind a screen instead of saying it to someone's face
Snapchat is mainly used for sharing photos and videos where as instagram is used for uploading posts and stories not directly to share to an individual
It should be incorporated as a daily way to treat others and yourself.
Account Blackmailing or hacking is more likely on Tiktok or Instagram. Photos or information more likely on Snapchat.
More united in a community, with better job opportunities
As people have different environments that influence them to do things they wouldn't normally do
Vunrable people who dont know right and wrong and are easily manipulated and taken advantage of
Snapchat is more mainly texting whereas instagram is mainly sharing photos of groups and events
Its dangerous and has high unrealistic standards that can crush people's confidence
Respect is earned not automatically granted
people online have a sense of anonimity, therefore do not see a risk or the real impact of their actions towards or about another person
there are no real reprecutions for most people that do wrong online
identifying any issues/changes within a young person and indicated any malignant feeling such a depression/anxiety/discomfort without having to reach out to mental health services themselves e.g. myself
it will have improved, just not by much as many people do not change their ideologies and sectarianisms due to the teachings of their parents. however, the physical environment will not have changed much i believe
People from low income places due to having to make money somehow
Young people are stigmatised and not respected in public
people who don't like me or want to make fun of me. i don't know why
tiktok and snapchat, they are more regularly used
People who are influenced or peer pressured by others to do it and people who do it for their own benefit
Pictures and videos of others will be shared often without their consent on Snapchat or instagram
The same as now with people hating each other for what their religion is.
snapchat has a feature where the images sent ‚Äúdisappear‚Äù after viewing so users have the false comfort of the evidence being removed
Teenagers because saying stuff online can't hurt them
I think it'll get worse and the environment will become more dirty as people don't seem to care anymore
With instagram its easier to block people as when you block someone all there other accounts get blocked aswell where with Snapchat it's harder to know if there fake accounts or not
I think the environment will be unclean lots or rubbish graffiti children running round with vapes and alcohol because they can everyone doing drugs and it just not being a nice place
Sharing of photos without consent - Snapchat
Some one who is mocked and bullied as it can give them a sense of relief and power when they go online to be mean.
Snapchat because it is far easier to add people, send messages and photos on it.
That the age should be increased for social media apps, ID have to be shown so they can't add random people and become vulnerable.
Personally as a young person in NI I believe that everyone should be treated with the same level of respect no matter how different they are to other
I think that everyone's children will interact at every school, and religion won't matter as much as it does now
Cyber bullies - not confident enough to do it in person/scared of face to face consequences
I think people with their own problems in life do stuff to other people behind a screen because they gain satisfaction in taking people down to their level. People also gain amusement out of spreading things about other people but in reality no one would like it if it was them.
Snapchat has a sense of secrecy compared to instagram and other apps as it is just two bitmojis talking together in a chat that all stuff gets deleted within 24 hours or even instantly and can be deleted within the click of a button.
Social media isn't all bad. Yes it can be used to do some bad things but it's also a way for people to express themselves and it gives them more confidence as they don't have to express themselves in front of people's faces and can do it on a screen.
Reaching out to young people in schools rather than waiting for young people to come to the school/counsellor. We don't have any idea what goes on in other people's lives and most people won't reach out about something that is bothering them because they either feel like it is a small worry that shouldn't be taken seriously by other people or because they are afraid to reach out to someone because they don't want to feel judged.
I feel like I don't get listened to about certain things purely because of my age despite researching and speaking to relevant people about it due to "not having experience"/the adults 'knowing better'.
Bullying is more likely to happen as people think they can hide behind the device
Vulnerable people who aren't very educated -
people who don't really know you or anything about your life as they don't realise the egfect it can have -
i think some people abuse social media and use it as a way to bully
i think there will be nothing left and there will be ongoing wars
strangers because if they don't personally know you they are more likely to feel comfortable behind the screen
snapchat became the snaps disappear after you open them
i think it will have improved in the sense of people being concerned about what religion you are
Hopefully even more peaceful and less sectarian than it is now
People who have nothing better to with their time
Snapchat as it is used within all young people
Teenagers are looked down on and disrespected by older people as a form of stereotyping
The same because nothing has changed in the past 25 years
People who are friends with bad influences
Giving respect towards those who don't deserve it shows heightened levels of maturity
I think people share more information about you and photos of you on Snapchat and whatsapp as you can have private chats and save all photos without anyone knowing and the chats are deleted in Snapchat so you have no proof they are sharing your photos and info
It will be the same as in now the city areas such as belfast will be the same with construction perhaps there will be a decrease in traffic because people will choose bikes or scooters but the country side may also be taken over by cities
Everyone, there are no immediate consequences for actions online.
People should always be respected regardless of their views, everyone has a human right to opinion.
More understanding of other people's ideas and backgrounds, possibly in a United Ireland.
Snapchat and Instagram as it is not difficult to delete messages and images and you don't have to face the person in person making it easier to get away with.
Social media has to much influence on young people. With news and information being shared on social media through small videos that don't talk about the full picture and only talk about what people want to here. Social media information that isn't factual has to much influence on young people
I don't think the environment will be in a good condition in 25 years time
Kids are more likely as they're less likely to get caught
Easier to spread information around, people think they won't get any consequences for it
Hard to tell, we know how to make the environment better but getting people to do it such as kids can be difficult
i think people who spend too much time on social media and not socialising dont know how to behave like a normal human being online
some social medias have better protection against this. E.g snapchat deletes messages and prevents screenshotting
most young people use social media innocently.
some teachers believe that their respect for you should be earned but you have to respect them unconditionally
Respect should always be given no matter what.
good but very anti-social and disrespect in most people
They are able to say and post things anonymously and usually there isn't any repercussions for their actions online. So they feel more comfortable engaging in these behaviours as a result.
Apps like Snapchat and Whatsapp where the main use of the app is communication with others, are more likely to have cyberbullying or blackmail occuring on them -  - Posting indecent and inappropiate images/videos would be seen more often on TikTok or Instagram -  - Misleading information like inaccurate factual information or stereotypical views are likely to be found on apps like Twitter, TikTok, Facebook and Spotify (specifically on the podcasts offered). -  - The posting/spreading of images of a person without their consent is likely to have on all social media apps although I've personally seen it done on tiktok and twitter.
I think the environment will be better as lough neagh.
They think there are no repercussions cause it is online
I think Snapchat cause it's not like TikTok where bad videos or photos get your account banned
I mean people think Snapchat is safe cause it ‚Äúdeletes‚Äù after they open it while other apps it stays there but Snapchat is just as bad
From what I learn in science not very good we just get rid of trees and turn them into big grass fields destroying habitat
Middle aged men who are lonely are more likely to send illicit pictures to people they dont know with no warning. Young people that you know will share embarassing pictures with malicious intent and older family members will non consensually share pictures of young people with their friends
Snapchat is a likely site of sharing of pictures from people you know because of its disappearing messages feature and reddit is more likely to have older men sending illicit pictures. facebook and whatsapp see many family members sharing pictures
i hope that there is ongoing peace but i want a referendum for the united Ireland.
younger children as they dont know the consequences of what can happen
People who have a toxic relationship with social media, the ones who are on it 24/7. I believe they are the ones to be engage these behaviours online. - Also I believe people get more confidant online than when they are in public so they say things they wouldn't say if they were in public
I believe that this is more likely to happen on snapchat due to it being mainly for texting (same with WhatsApp) and I don't have it but I here a lot a strange stories about it
I think schools should teach young people about the dangers of social media and parents should give children phones at a reasonable age like when the go to secondary school not in primary school. -
People should respect everyone no matter their gender, ethnicity, religion etc - Also you should treat someone how they treat  you, so if a person doesn't treat you with respect you don't treat them with respect
Hopefully the governments not bad so hopefully northern Ireland is a safe place and paramilitary groups are gone
youger people that are not educated on how to be safe online and older people who are more likely to trust people online
Snapchat as most people just add back everyone
Using social media makes everything worse- It's exhausting
Pictures been stolen off someone's instagram or Facebook to be used for something else or someone else.
A lot of it will be covered in buildings and the government will make more laws making it more difficult for farmers to farm their land
Snapchat - easy to contact others and share or save photos
I think young people are more likely to engage in harmful activities online compared to real life because they think they can get away with it
I think it would be more likely to be Snapchat because everyone uses it and with the fact you can send messages and they automatically delete causes people to send inappropriate or harmful stuff
I think there should be things put into place when young people are using social media's even if that's at home or school and young people should be cautious when using social media
I think the environment will mostly be the same especially with young people partaking in anti social behaviour
i feel like the answer to this question is ridiculously obvious and doesnt require a sixteen year old to unveil
different apps have different functions and therefore would obviously be used by certain people for certain behaviours (eg. psycopaths on twitter, more normal stuff of tiktok since its not like u can post illegal stuff as easily, neurodivergent wierdos on tumblr kinda, but no offense or anything, snapchat messages can dissapear, insta u can creep on ppl real easy since posting pretty pics is lit the point of the app, bereal is dead now but u used to be able to ig, nobody unser the age of 40 with any respectability uses facebook unironically
Improving things that cause negative well-being in children and young people, specifically finding multiple causes of the stress that is most prominent in recent generations which causes bad mental health, and actually doing something about it
I think it will either be fine or with hatred
Bullying because your behind a screen and can pretend to be someone else
Some young people are on social media too young
Treat others the way you want to be treated
Snapchat- sending because people can send easily
More storms  - Temperature will increase
Because they can hide their identity behind a screen and don't have to face the person
Only respect others if they respect you regardless of age
I don't know what it will be like but I know it will be very different
hacking on instagram, blackmailing on snapchat
too easy accessible to younger children (primary school) -
I think people are more likely to be hateful on apps like Twitter or Tiktok because it gives a sense of anonymity and lack of consequence, it's easier to say things to someone when you're not face-to-face.
I would hope that people will be more open-minded and people can live their lives freely without fear of being judged.
Respect is not always manifests itself in kindness
In 25 years, Northern Ireland's environment could be greener and cleaner, with more renewable energy, restored peatlands, and improved biodiversity. However, climate change may still bring challenges like coastal erosion, heavier rainfall, and threats to wildlife. The future will likely be a mix of progress and ongoing adaptation.
people that you don't know because they have a screen to hide behind
cyber bullying because it's so easy to pick someone apart from behind a screen without any serious concequences
people abuse their power on social media as it's not real life encounters which can be reported directly to the police. although it's easy to report social media accounts and take screenshots of threatening or offensive material and show it to a trusted adult
it comes hand in hand. if you respect someone, they will show respect back. most of time i feel disrespected because ‚Äúim too young to know what's good for me‚Äù
probably more sectarian and more conflict, but hopefully more welcoming and less hostile in certain areas
Snapchats used by everyone that's how info gets around so quick
Making sure teachers treat their students fairly
Be more people with mental health issues and medical problems.
People who may not have good friends and will take any interaction as hope for a friend. - Teenagers who have difficult family life with absent parents or no carers. -
Identity theft- instagram or facebook - Manipulation- dating apps  - Selling illegal substances- Facebook or snapchat
Some people may know how to deal and report certain behaviours online and some may not know what to do about. I think that there should be better awareness and teaching for teenagers on how to deal with these activities online.
Young people are less respected because of the image that is painted of them in society and because they ‚Äòhaven't the experience in life' like older people.
I think that there will be a change in rural towns as more people from large cities and other countries are moving to quieter areas. I think this will change the acceptance in rural areas and people will adapt to the growing numbers. However I still think that there will be a high number of racism and anti social behaviours. With the potential of war outbreak people may come to northern Ireland from all backgrounds and ethnic groups which will add to the current unwillingness and ignorance to learn about the new cultures.
I think it is easy for adults online to groom vulnerable, young people online. However, there is many cases I know where the young person also doing harm online. Anyone who is online can be a predator or victim.
I think it is more likely to be a young person.
The negatives to this new online world completely outweigh the positives. Social media is an incredibly dangerous place for young people and the effects of it can be so harming so it is the older generations duty to protect, not victimise us.
Just REALLY reiterating that respect does not equal following and acting on a person's agenda. Respect is being open minded, valuing those around you, being mature, but also being confident in your own person.
Probably a strong divide in left wing and right wing ideas, and a society where many people do not work as they won't have to. However I hope there is a change in people and they will become more hardworking and faith centred.
Younger people or people who don't know the dangers of social media and how it can affect others wellbeing's
People who like to make fun of others to make themselves appear better
Snapchat is more likely due to stickers and it's more of a messaging app, whereas Instagram and TikTok can filter out specific content
People you know from school/work because they think they wont be caught as quickly.
Its easier to access more people anonymously and usually linked to harassment / sexual assault.
The effects of social media on teens are complicated and have many sides. It can be great for making friends and being creative, but it also has downsides like mental health problems, bullying, and seeing bad stuff. It's really important to help young people learn how to use social media wisely and find a good balance.
Respect means treating people well, really listening to them, and considering their views without being judgmental. It helps build good relationships, encourages teamwork, and makes a welcoming space where different ideas and cultures are appreciated.
In 25 years, I think Northern Ireland is expected to be much warmer and wetter, facing more extreme weather and a risk of rising sea levels. Although some forecasts indicate fewer winter storms, the really intense ones might happen more often. The coast will probably see quick changes, affecting fishing communities and people who rely on coastal resources.
