Who has a legal right to spy on people except governments’ intelligence agencies get away with trespassing people’s privacy and not get blamed for it as they do it for the common good of a community? But when the same tool is used by the government against an individual, it becomes one man versus the whole state. Something of the same happened to the 23-year-old Saudi journalist, named Hamza Kashgari, who was arrested in Kuala Lumpur with the help of Interpol’s red notice system by the Saudi Arabian government.

There is a general perception about anything that is new and trendy that teenagers would be involved in it more than adults. But for Facebook and Twitter, this does not hold true. We need to adjust our perspective of looking at teens as the only happening people abuzz, because a recent survey released by Pew Research Center, indicates than adults are using social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter more than their younger-age group counterparts.
