Answer 2

The most significant advantage social media have given organizers of social movements is the ability to reach many people all over the world at the same time.

With the development of new technologies people have gained instant access to first-hand information. Social media became a platform where ideas, plans and actions can be discussed simultaneously with thousands of users. Content shared in social media can be spread quickly, which plays an important role in political spectrum as well. In the last year, social media helped social movements overthrow repressive governments in the Middle East and Northern Africa by providing information and a gathering place for anti-government fighters.
