With these parameters in mind, these are a few of the new ideas I have identified:

1. Online groups are formed organically and the communication practices flourish within that space. 

Alone, this idea seems straight forward, but  looking deeper is quite insightful. This can have a positive affect as unity and goodwill is fostered because all of the people within that culture identifies with one another. It does, however, mean that the algorithm is seeking to keep people who are different than this culture far away. The important and difficult discussions aren't taking place because it could potentially drive away the culture's target audience. 

2.  Biases and/or manipulation can be introduced quite easily. 

With algorithms attempting to create so many different spaces for culture, it may include and even encourage people to think a certain way that may  be harmful to themselves or those around them.  A study about online gaming communication found that, "Algorithms may reinforce or perpetuate existing societal biases or stereotypes, potentially exacerbating issues of discrimination or marginalization."

3. Online impacts and interactions are difficult to midigate and control as the online space is always changing and growing. 

People often come to the internet to feel less alone. Unfortunately, this includes people carrying harmful messages. There are always going to be loopholes and ways to avoid accountability no matter how hard the company platforms may try to enforce their standards. 

Now, this is something we have probably all heard, but this fact alone deserves to be reiterated. We are encouraging online platforms to spout negative and harmful messages to basically make the people watching angry enough to fire back. People react emotionally spouting even more hate, and the cycle never ends. 

6. The way people communicate via technology has become "a universal language that transcends linguistic boundaries."

This is referring to practices such as emojis and slang. Communicating with people so far and wide has never been easier. 

7. Hyperbolic language is at an all time high.

Again, this is used in a way to invoke emotions leading users to engage. Making a problem bigger than it is is bound to cause lashing out leading these company to profit from the negativity. 

8. People will evaluate the value of a relationship by weighing the costs and benefits. 

Because of this, a person has nothing to lose by treating people so badly on the internet as they hold a relationship with these people they have never met with zero value. It shouldn't be this way, but it is. We had no way to prepare young people for this because no one has every been so well connected as these new generations are a could not have forseen any of the present issues.
