book introduction

Smart Internet Living Guide for Digital Indigenous People. All modern people spend most of their days in the Internet world. In particular, the youth generation is digital natives who have learned how to handle mobile phones before talking from birth. We spend our daily lives on mobile phones and act as citizens of social networks. Press 'Like' and 'Share' to forget me in reality. Now I can't imagine a world without the Internet.

The writer's problem consciousness begins here. Are we living as owners of the digital world, protected equally and safely? Why is the digital world flooded with violent or sensational messages and fake news? Who, why, and how will rule the vast Internet world?

In fact, it has not been a generation since we moved into the Internet world. How can I make a wise social networking life? The author says it is up to our fingertips to eventually turn on our phones to decide what kind of Internet world we live in. Furthermore, I believe we will find the answer through our own critical thinking.

Why is fake news all the rage on the Internet? _How not to be misled by fake news

The fact that the world is moving around the Internet today is not new at all. We watch news on the Internet, search for information, make friends, and consume emotions. I can't even imagine a world without the Internet. While navigating near-infinity territory, we often get lost in the blink of an eye. Pursuing the Internet running at the speed of light, we always run out of time to think, produce emotions easily, and forget the 'me' of reality.
The Internet pumps out hundreds of thousands of copies of information a day. Google always has answers to questions, and "experts" appear to support the view with any taste and bias. During the last COVID-19 pandemic, experts claimed that vaccines cause autism, and some scolded such claims as nonsense. With all this information, how can we uncover the truth? What is proper news and what is fake news?
Unfortunately, our brains are lazy. It moves according to the conventional beliefs and inertia. I don't think the other argument, even if it's true, is that I try to ignore it. Fake news and misinformation multiply by nourishing our confirmation bias. Time, as usual, is running out to screen Internet information for critical thinking. The author points to confirmation bias as the main reason people are misled by fake news. It also persuades readers that critical thinking is necessary above all to avoid being misled by fake news.

Why are newcomers crazy about social networks? _A Guide to Living for Digital Aboriginal People

The youth generation was born with a mobile phone in hand. Turn on your phone and turn the screen on before you say the sentence properly. For digital natives, whose genes are unique, mobile phones are another hand. The third hand is mainly used as a communication tool. Teenagers are enthusiastic about social networks such as YouTube, KakaoTalk, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.
Looking back, mankind has always lived in groups with groups, and has found new stories (content) out of curiosity. The near-infinite social network is the most enjoyable playground for newcomers. Press "like" and "share" on someone's photos and videos to release dopamine. Anyone can become a content producer on their own, or even take it as a job.
The social networking world is always sparkling, but even more so, we often fall into whiteouts. Now we manipulate reality to post on social networks. To post pictures on Instagram, wear fancy clothes, order expensive food, and find places with great scenery. The virtual world's "likes," "sharing," and "views" determine the real happiness index.
How to live wisely in an internet world where the boundaries between virtual and reality are breaking down? This book is a digital life guide that allows you to find logical developments and smart answers that don't lose serious questions and humor.

The Invisible Giant's Business Secrets_ Our Relationship with the Internet Giant

We leave a digital footprint as we wander through the Internet and social networks. The longer we stay there, the more specific and diverse our personal information becomes. Interests, family and friends, favorite foods and celebrities, daily schedules, and secrets that you want to hide are all accumulated. All of these digital footprints are stored on huge devices, and the information stored is the prey of the invisible giants that dominate the Internet world. Invisible giants run the internet's giant information platforms (Google, KakaoTalk, Instagram, Naver, YouTube, TikTok, etc.). They tempt us to stay on the Internet and social networks for a long time. Is it because they want to show more information and connect more diverse networks like they say? It's a naive idea.
The invisible giants that dominate the Internet world have found ways to make money in the Internet world. It is selling the personal information of Internet users. They categorize and analyze our digital footprints and provide the information to the general companies that need it at a pricey price. Can a company that is obsessed with promoting a product reject such effective and direct consumer information? Thanks to this, the invisible giants have made huge advertising money and occupy the front seat of the world's highest-paid companies.
Unbeknownst to us, we have become a commodity of invisible giants. Moreover, our digital footprint is easily exposed to those approached with impure intentions. This book tells us the trade secrets of giant companies that lurk in the Internet world and makes us think about how to deal with them.

The Internet world eventually begins at our fingertips!

Even if we are moths floundering on webs of invisible giants, and if the Internet and social networks have caused tragedy in individuals and society, we will still not let go of our phones.
However, even in desperate situations, the writer is optimistic. Because when parts of our brains are lazy, leaning on confirmatory bias, in another area, neurons (neurons) that listen to new stories and crave new changes are activated.
The author does not deny that the Internet and social networks are the shining results of human civilization. However, he is wary of falling into a convenient and colorful bubble world and not floundering. It is suggested to sort out lies and truth from overflowing information, live as a self-directed digital native rather than as a product of invisible giants, and step into reality, not a virtual world.
The start of a new Internet world is surprisingly simple and easy. Before we share information, we can make sure it's true, listen to the opposite story of our thoughts, and decide for ourselves to what extent it will remain a commodity. It's up to our fingertips to turn our phones on and off!

She doesn't do Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok and is worried about the future. I like listening more than talking. Rather than press 'like' for answers, press 'like' more for questions. She often stands still and listens to the sounds of things. One of the greatest things she discovered was Manoe de Barros's poem, which begins like this.
"If you want to touch the inside of the world, you must know that the majesty of the morning does not open with a sword."
