Think Before You Post

Article:http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/10/05/offensive-memes-can-lead-to-jail-time-under-indonesia-cyberbullying-laws/
The article tells about when Indonesian government has arrested people for “offencive” internet memes. The country in 2008 law restricted against people who post about texts,pictures and etc.  I think that social media is for a negative use. I back this up by saying that some post can harm others and offend people. In the article tells about how the Indonesian had to set a law to the citizens to post on social media of text,picture,videos and memes. These show about “Immediacy, Permanence and Lack of Control.” For Immediacy is the will of posting the pictures the videos and memes. Then thereś the Permanence of these post like when you post the picture or texts it´s out there for anyone to see. Last but least is Lack of Control this shows about the controlness of how big or small your post could be than it could turn that it could be bad and people will make fun of you. If I were one of those people who posted these rude remarks to the Indonesian government this could be on your record that you posted these things. The article says you could get a punishment of 12 years in prison because of these post.
