The interesting story of Social Media! The Island of Privacy! Privacy is a myth! Data is the new oil! I am damn sure you have heard this before. A beautiful interesting simile popular in the morning! Consider the internet as the virtual world. Let social media be the continent. Unlike our world, this world consist of cities and Nations. Let's say each city is independent social media platform.
