Abstract

The article aims to provide a conceptual yet simple understanding of the relationship between the Internet and social hostilities. Social hostilities will be explained in terms of cognitive bias resulting from unregulated Internet communication. The relationship between the Internet and social hostilities will be observed by analysing how the control of Internet platforms will provide the power to control public perception. The analysis will use the Pew Research Center reports on social hostilities, State control, and other secondary research material. This essay will contribute to a broader and more vivid understanding of unregulated and over-regulated Internet risks
