Week 4 EOC: A New App
Say hello to the new way of “blocking” on social media. Last
week you and you’re boyfriend broke up, and it didn’t end well or maybe you and
your best friend made the decision to part ways on not the most positive terms.
You don’t want to see them again because you know the kind of effect it will
have on you and your well-being. It’s common for people to have a really hard
time moving on from someone, especially with social media making them so easy
to see and find. You can’t get on your phone or your favorite websites without
stumbling upon some bad memories, but what if you could? What if we had an app
on our phone that could lead us away from the bad memories and terrible
pictures you took together. An app that can prevent stalkers or other internet
menaces or “trollers”. A possible way to just get yourself as far away as you
can from those annoying, repetitive accounts you see posting the same bulls***
on twitter every single day. I’m talking about an app that will help you steer
clear from what you don’t want to see, and help keep those that you don’t want
from seeing you. This app could be programmed into several different devices,
and work along with many other apps. I think a good name for the app would be “Cutem’off”.
After the app is downloaded to your phone it will link itself to all of your
social media profiles, then from some interface within the app you can share the
name of the person you don’t want to see and choose between whether they can
see you, you can see them, or both. After your selection is chosen the app will
search back as far in time as it can though your profile and remove all and any
trace of existence of that person in the past and prevent all future posts. Say
good bye to “blocking” and simply just cut them off.
