Most people with Internet access are on at least one social network, and people who spend an inordinate amount of time scrolling through sites like Website/{{Facebook}} or Website/{{Twitter}} are not uncommon. Because of its ubiquity, social media is an easy and frequent target of NewMediaAreEvil. Works employing this trope will portray the use of such websites as overall bad for its individual users or society as a whole, often by portraying its users as obsessed by how they are seen online and by other people taking advantage of this.

* ZigZagged in ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/40192773 Disciplinary Action]]'':
** Several of Izuku's classmates used their cell phones to film Katsuki [[BarbaricBully bullying him]] and posted the videos online because [[KidsAreCruel they found it funny]] and [[InstantHumiliationJustAddYoutube wanted to share his humiliation]]. One of Katsuki's friends even recorded him telling Izuku to "[[SuicideDare take a swan dive off the roof]]". However, these videos help Principal Nedzu gather evidence of how the staff at [[SuckySchool Aldera]] not only enabled Katsuki's bullying, but covered it up by BlamingTheVictim.
** Mina creates a vlog about her experiences at U.A. However, she exercises caution about exactly what she includes in these video diaries, being very careful not to name names or share too many details about her classmates. Nedzu also uses her vlogs to get a clearer picture of what's been happening with her class, namely the parts that Aizawa hasn't seen fit to mention to him, and leaves a comment complimenting her discretion.

The protagonist, an adolescent boy named Thomas, dials a Christmas chat room advertising the ability to speak to Santa, and it turns out that a local drifter and criminal is on the other end. Thomas tells "Santa" that his mother is the manager of a department store, which turns out to be enough information for the drifter to find out where he lives.
