Abstract

This study analyzes the paradox of freedom of expression in digital public spaces, particularly on social media platforms such as X, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. Social media is often perceived as a democratic space that enables individuals to voice opinions, share information, and participate in public discourse. However, this form of freedom is not entirely open; instead, it is constructed through algorithms, content moderation policies, and the economic-political logic of digital capitalism. The purpose of this research is to reveal how technological and institutional mechanisms within social media shape the boundaries of freedom of expression and their implications for the formation of public discourse. This research employs a qualitative approach using library study and conceptual analysis methods. The theoretical framework is based on Habermas’ concept of the public sphere, Foucault’s notion of power relations, and the theories of algorithmic governance and platform society. Data were analyzed descriptively and critically to examine the relationship between digital structures, power, and knowledge production. The findings indicate that algorithms and platform policies function as instruments of curation and control that determine content visibility, distribution, and legitimacy. Consequently, the digital public sphere is not entirely free but becomes an engineered arena shaped by economic interests and platform power. This condition also generates self-censorship practices among users and limits the diversity of discourses that emerge in digital public spaces. The study concludes that freedom of expression in the digital era is essentially “curated,” requiring critical awareness of the mechanisms that regulate the production and consumption of information.

Abstract

The phenomenon of oversharing on social media has become increasingly prominent among Generation Z, who have grown up in an open digital environment. This study aims to understand how oversharing functions as a form of self-expression while simultaneously posing risks to privacy and mental health. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature analysis of recent studies on digital identity, online privacy, and self-disclosure behavior. Findings indicate that oversharing often serves as a means of identity formation and social validation in digital spaces. However, this behavior also increases vulnerability to negative consequences such as stress, anxiety, and post-sharing regret. Generation Z tends to overlook long-term privacy risks in favor of short-term social gratification. Thus, oversharing reflects a paradox between the desire for self-expression and the need for privacy protection in the age of social media.
