How people reacting in real life changed too. Instead of taking instance reaction about any thing bother them, their only reaction is to shoot pictures and share them . For example, when they saw , lost child , instead of going to police station or share in finding his parents,they just share his picture online. Even when they saw some people behave or act in a wrong way, it is easier to take their photo and share it online with their own comments, instead of going and talking to these people. Even if this inappropriate action happened to them , you can find it on their status . They stop taking action in real life, they became virtual too !
