From the perspective of the development process of human science, technology and culture, the Internet has promoted the scientization, technicalization and intellectualization of human activities, changed the human value system, thus providing a new material basis and scientific and technological basis for the development of morality, and also promoted the trend of human moral progress, which has a profound impact on people's lifestyle, It has changed some traditional living habits and behavior patterns of people. "Online social networking" has its own characteristics: [2]
(1) Social networking has virtual characteristics
Social networking is based on Virtual technology Based on, interpersonal communication is based on Indirect communication Based on symbolization, it has many characteristics in real society, such as name, gender, age, work unit and social relations All these have been "diluted", so human behavior has the characteristics of "virtual reality". Far from socialization in the real social context, the virtuality and anonymity of the network lead to the weakening of the moral sense of teenagers on the network. A survey report by Xie Zongbao, the Communist Youth League Party Committee of Guangdong Province, mentioned that 31.4% of teenagers do not think that "it is immoral to lie when chatting online", 37.4% of teenagers think that "it is no big deal to talk about rude words on the Internet occasionally", and 24.9% of people think that "nothing can be done online without scruple". The weakening of teenagers' network moral sense is mainly due to the high concealment of the network. Everyone's existence on the Internet is virtual, digital, and in the form of symbols. There is no pressure of "others' presence". The "happiness principle" dominates personal desires. The evil side of the suppressed human nature in daily life will be released in this unconstrained or low constraint situation. This weakening of online moral sense directly affects and reacts on the moral behavior of teenagers in real life.
(2) Social networking has multiple characteristics
The global exchange and sharing of network information makes time and space meaningless. People can no longer be restricted by physical space and time to communicate freely, and the conflict and integration of different ideas, values, religious beliefs, customs and lifestyles between them become possible. The "multiple sources" and "multiple differences" of this value orientation have created an unprecedented loose moral life space for every Internet teenager. For those without subjective consciousness, the ability and confidence to make moral choices independently, and the sense of right and responsibility to make moral choices, the "freedom" given by this space is not so much the gospel of moral life as the "trap" of moral life. A considerable part of subjects in moral life will lose themselves in this "trap". And his personality will also have a certain degree of personality crisis, which is embodied in "three losses", namely, the "failure" of traditional personality, the "anomie" of realistic personality and the "loss" of ideal personality. Therefore, the construction of subjective moral personality is the realistic requirement to solve the moral problems in the current society.
(3) Social networking has innovative characteristics
The network is the product of innovation, and its innovative form makes the information transmission process become the active cognitive process of participants. In the field of ideology, it is easy to breed more diversified and even deviating from the constraints of social norms of normal behavior. CCTV《 Social longitude and latitude 》A story was broadcast about a 17-year-old hacker who used his superb computer network technology to design a hacker website, which paralyzed tens of thousands of computers logged on to the website and caused incalculable economic losses. When asked by the police, the teenager said easily, "I just show my talent and prove my value in the online world. Is it also illegal?"? Moreover, the network world is a virtual world, how much loss can it cause? The current publicity of international public opinion on cyber crime cases has made many people feel that Cybercrime It is the embodiment of personal wisdom, ability and courage. It is neither outrageous nor cruel. It is just a "heroic feat" of the "lone hero" type. stay Individualism In the prevailing western countries, many people do not regard it as shameful, but envy and admire this behavior, which is good and evil regardless of right and wrong Public opinion guidance It has also played a role in promoting cyber crime. In recent years, some teenagers in our country have used information technology to steal money, obtain information, disseminate unhealthy content, slander others, violate others' privacy and other illegal and criminal acts, which is a signal worthy of our moral educators' vigilance.
(4) Social networking is free
Network society ”The decentralized network structure makes it have no center, no stratum and no hierarchical relationship. Compared with the communication of people in the real society, the "network society" has a broader free space, and the traditional supervision and control methods can no longer adapt to its development. Some scholars conducted a survey among young netizens, and the results were worrying: 34.6% admitted that they had "ever" visited pornographic websites, and 4.9% admitted that they "often" visited pornographic websites. Many of them abandoned their studies and became“ electronic heroin ”Of the smokers, serious damage has been caused to their physical and mental health. According to the statistics of the respondents, more than 90% of the teenagers frequently visit pornographic sites due to the lack of strong external binding force and weak self-control ability. According to the survey of Wuhan Public Security Department, the majority of students entering Internet cafes are primary and secondary school students, accounting for about 70%, and the number around colleges and universities can reach 90% chat room 76%, 35% choose to play games, and less than 20% of students surf the Internet to search for information or download software. Therefore, while the network brings us great convenience, it also brings great challenges to the traditional moral and legal system.
(5) Social networking is characterized by alienation
Network society ”The communication in China is mainly mediated by computers, which makes people tend to be isolated, indifferent and non socialized, and easily leads to the loss and alienation of human nature itself. The open and free information system of "network society" provides a new, dynamic and Hypertext This kind of communication mode Man machine system Highly automated, accurate and lacking in human feelings, it is easy to cause people to be indifferent to the happiness of others and society in real life, easily lead to mental numbness and moral indifference, and lose the sense of reality and effectiveness Moral judgment In serious cases, it will lead to the loss and alienation of human nature, and some extreme events against humanity will occur. According to the survey, many students in universities spend most of their time surfing the Internet not studying but playing online games, and there are also many people who are good at it. At present, most online games are full of bloody content such as war, violence and murder. Students who are obsessed with these games tend to develop a cold, heartless and selfish character, neither caring about the collective nor others. German Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution In July 1998, a survey report was published to remind people of the neo-nazi And other extreme right-wing forces use the Internet to strengthen propaganda. According to the report, although this trend is still "not enough to enhance the action ability of the neo Nazi forces", the propaganda materials of the right-wing forces are increasing on the Internet, and the impact has caused concern.
