Facebook Hate Button

Have you heard about Facebook adding a “hate” button?  The “hate” button could become a reality on Facebook. In the digital world today, there is controversy on whether it will encourage cyber-bullying. The purpose of the “hate” button is to let users express their negative emotions about products.  The majority of users who have a Facebook account are in the age group of 18 to 25 so the button should serve its original purpose for consumers. Although, if you look into how many users have a Facebook account younger than 18 it makes you think twice about the “hate” button. In a 2011 survey, the results showed that 7.5 million Facebook users were age 13 and under. In addition, over 14 million  teenagers age 13 to 18  have an account.
