Abstract

Internet and social media technologies have revolutionized society’s functions, facilitating unprecedented global connectivity while raising complex ethical and philosophical issues. This paper examines the philosophical foundations of these technologies and their implications on societal inclusivity and exclusivity. The paper also analyzes how these technologies contribute to societal well-being, discussing their role in spreading information, fostering community, and influencing politics. Further, the paper examines further on the role of the internet and social media technologies on both inclusivity and exclusivity and how we can mitigate the same. Mitigation measures such as implementing inclusive policies, education and awareness campaigns, and content moderation are explored.
