It’s quite huge in many ways and smaller in others. Not enough studies have been done overall to determine the range of it’s affect, especially given the growing access to the wider internet and social media across a major portion of the human population, though significantly still segregated in the ways in which it’s accessible.
I can personally say for a fact that there is already growing social mobility relating to how it’s being used, as well as where policy is moving. This is where we will end up seeing the longer term trends given more are sociologically changing habits as well as better legal requirements, shifting policy reccomendations, and overall scientific recognition of affects.
I hope better in the long run, but definitely close to a net neutral given the way it’s moved overall, and a net negative in recent years.
