Social media sites are generally run through UGC, this means that they tend to work off of what people are uploading and sharing on the sites. what this does, is that it allows the user to feel like they have control in what they are uploading and sharing, as they have the power to share their values and opinions freely. This is what the user are made to believe, with all sites they have certain boundaries that are set in order to make sure that all content is safe. if a user was to upload something offence e.g. if a user on Facebook or Instagram was to write a rude comment or a sexually explicit image, the site can take the comment or image down without having to tell the user. This shows that new and digital media has allowed audience to gain power, but only to a small extent. As it is the institutions that are in control of what happens and what is shown the the public.
