The Role of Philosophy in Viewing the Ethics of Science in Lifestyle and the Normalization of Social Media
Abstract
This article aims to explore the role of philosophy in analyzing the phenomenon of lifestyle and the normalization of social media in the digital age. Social media has become an inseparable part of modern life, influencing lifestyles, triggering addiction, and raising ethical consequences. This article explores how philosophy, with the foundation of the ethics of science, can provide a critical thinking framework for understanding the impact of social media on individuals and society. The discussion includes the philosophical foundation of the ethics of science, the influence of social media on individual lifestyles, and the role of the ethics of science in controlling the use of social media. Self-awareness is seen as the key to managing emotions, prioritizing positive things, and maintaining a balance between social life in the real world and cyberspace. This article concludes that the ethics of science plays a crucial role in guiding humans to be critical and rational in interacting in cyberspace. Suggestions for further research include deepening case studies, interdisciplinary approaches, recommendations for concrete solutions, empirical research, and analysis of social media algorithms.
