Sharing Is Fast, but Erasing Is Hard

It's very easy to share posts and send screenshots. It can spread all at once with the push of a button. When researching or preparing for a presentation, there are times when it is important not to make a decision based on the first answer you find.

Once something spreads online, it often becomes much harder to erase than most people expect.

Once you send it, it can move beyond you

After something is sent, another person can save it, forward it, or show it to someone else. Deleting your copy does not always end the story.

That is why speed can be risky. The easier it is to send something, the more it helps to stop and think first.

Ease of sharing is why caution matters

It is important not to spread the momentum just because it is convenient. Because it was funny, because it made me angry, because it surprised me. If you send it with only those feelings in mind, you may run into trouble later.

Taking a breath before pushing protects both yourself and the other person.

What you can do today
If you feel like sending a post or message quickly, pause once and think about what could happen after it leaves you.

At Digital Kodomo BASE, we convey the importance of making decisions not to expand, as well as the ability to expand. Even if it spreads for a moment, it is difficult to reverse it.
