It is often argued that people are sharing their personal information online in order to gain

 to programs that are developed by technological companies. In my opinion, I believe that it has many demerits because of the prevailing trend in cyberbullying and the spread of misinformation in our digital age.

 software programs which has both merits and demerits.
