Social networking services refer to online platforms that facilitate the building of networks or relationships among people sharing interests, real-life connections, or activities. These platforms raise privacidade[4] e security[5] concerns as they often involve data sharing with corporations and risks of data breaches. They also contribute to targeted advertising[1] through data mining and algorithms. Moreover, these services significantly impact mental health, with issues like addiction, anxiety, and depression associated with their excessive use. User engagement on these platforms is largely influenced by notifications, which affect user experience[2] and interactions. However, they are also criticized for the spread of misinformation and fake news[3], and the creation of filter bubbles that limit exposure to diverse viewpoints. Despite these concerns, social networking services continue to play a substantial role in modern communication and information dissemination.
