Social Network Activism

I myself have participated once in social network activism during the Kony 2012 media storm. Though I had little information about the organization "Invisible Children" when I first "shared" their video, I believe that was irrelevant at that point considering that the main point of the video was to just spread awareness of Kony himself. Though I later learned that Invisible Children itself has a very poor track record with actual on the ground help, and they had offered a very oversimplified explanation of an almost irrelevant crisis that has been on the downslide for a couple years, this was all beside the point as the main purpose of the video was still just to spread awareness which could do no actual harm. However, I did not follow through in any way after the initial reaction, though someone who had seen me "share" the video might have.
