A v log, also called a video blog or video log, is a form of blog whose medium is video. Vlog entries often combine an embedded video (or video link) with supporting text, images, and other metadata.
Ruin personal life:
Everything is good in moderation. When we neglect the rest of our life needs and focus only on blogs, our lives will be ruined. We reveal our personal life to people. We are losing the thing called privacy in our life. In order to entertain people, we have taken the camera to our bedroom.
Cheapest element of interest:
While writing a vlog, sometimes we include all those elements of interest, which later make fun of us on social media. There are all kinds of people in the world. Some people see it as entertainment, some people try to annoy you by knowing all your personal details. If you show your lifestyle as very rich, then those who cannot afford such things, you are holding a deprivation in their hands.
Lack interest in science and technology:
The young generation is moving away from science and technology in the cycles of Tik Tok and Vlogging. They think that studies is more difficult and making vlogs and making videos on Tik Tok is easy to get millions of views and this is an easy and shortcut way to earn money.
Ostentation:
Some people feel that if they are eating well, dressing well and going to nice places, they should let the world know about it. In fact, in our society ostentation has increased beyond limits. Ostentation is an addiction in which a person feels that the whole world is being influenced by him and thus he receives the discharge of his precious things
Ending era of drama and film:
Instead of drama and film industry, people have started watching vlogs more and more.
Podcast:
Podcasts have replaced talk shows. The cameras have moved out of the studio and into the four walls of the house.
Victims of v log life:
I present here the views of some people. Whose lives have been destroyed due to Vlog.
Steve Genova is one of the social media users who has mentioned below a post about the bad effects of Vlog on his life.
I was raised by parents who did family vlogging. They started vlogging when I was 7 years old. The channel had more than 500k subscribers. My parents finally stopped making vlogs when our family went through a health crisis.
I liked it for a while. I loved being the center of attention while the camera was on and I loved getting more toys. I stopped loving him when I realized that I only had attention when the camera was on.
My parents finally stopped making vlogs when our family went through a health crisis.
Another victim family:
Another social media user shared one of his exoerience . I am so sorry you are going through what my daughter is going through. My daughter looked at some family logs and I find it very disturbing. Especially one “Shot of the Yeagers” that makes me sick. A whole story about a haunted doll called “Dollmaker” who haunts them and I don’t think the kids will think it’s drama? Mom runs around screaming like it’s real. Getting on with making little kids sick like that.
Conclusion:
- Fear and an uneasiness arise.
They should be banned. Because when you upload something online everyone can see it. There is no sense of security in the internet. Vlogs are usually done daily, it’s like giving your whole routine to the internet.
