This article covers how a woman has two accounts on Instagram. In this case she has one that shares her travels which was public in comparison to one which she has privatised. The privatised account would cover her day to day life. This article also covers how people would have lied about their own lives on social media.
- 75% of British people admit to lying about themselves on social media.
- Released research in 2014 revealing over 60% of people said social media makes them feel inadequate about their own lives.
In my opinion I think that the duality that people would have on Instagram would present themselves with two personalities. Although this might express themselves to the audience, this does end up fabricating what they are actually like.This does relate to the 60% that lied. This could be because of the anonymity that social media would serve to the audience. As a result this might cause people to get away with lying as they would have an audience trusting in their appearance on social media.
