I don't like most social media, but I do not think they were created with bad intentions. Many, many things can be addictive in the way social media is, and we are capable of doing those things in moderation, so I don't think social media addiction is more dangerous than any other psychological addiction. With the constitutional immunities the Patriot Act bestows upon the NSA, it's not like we're giving them information they can't get anyway. Unless you live in a country where your government isn't allowed to spy on you, then you have reason to be concerned that using social media lowers your privacy.
