Gen Z and The Internet

Gen Z, which refers to those born between 1995 and 2012 (or even earlier), has grown up in a world where they have always had easy access to technology. They're the first generation to not be able to recall a time before smartphones, apps, and social media platforms.

As we've seen with many other types of behaviour in recent years — from how teens consume news to their dating habits — Gen Zers who spend more time on the internet are also changing how they use it.

According to numerous reports, Generation Z is more diverse than previous generations, and they are less concerned about privacy than older people. Generation Z is the most connected generation ever, with 90 percent of them owning a smartphone and having internet access in their homes.

They use technology to multi-task and connect with friends, family, and even strangers more often than any previous generation, and overall, this generation is optimistic about tech’s future role in society.

Gen Zers are connected, multi-tasking and digital natives

Gen Zers are multi-tasking digital natives. They’re connected to their friends and family, but in a very different way than the older generations. Social media has become a part of everyday life, and Gen Z is using it in a very different way..

You may be wondering how teens are using the internet. Well for example, teens are more likely to talk to their parents on social media than any other age group. They’re also more likely to use social media to keep in touch with their friends while they were separated from them, which is surprising because most people would assume that younger children would want to be able to meet them in person regularly.

The internet is a place where they can be themselves, feel comfortable, and connect with others who think like they do — it's a place where they can learn new things and find answers to their questions and problems.

A person who is a part of a social network or online community is considered to be "social." The word "social" is used in many different ways, but the basic idea is that people from different backgrounds and cultures are able to interact and form healthy relationships.

Younger teenagers who don't remember a time before Facebook use the internet differently from older users. They're more likely to be digital natives, meaning they have grown up with technology and have always had access to the internet.

Conclusion

So while older generations may be more conservative in their online behaviour, Gen zers are less concerned with privacy and are open about posting personal information online. Moreover, Gen zers tend to use social media as an outlet for self-expression, rather than just communicating with others. They also use it as an opportunity to express themselves creatively through posts or videos on YouTube or Instagram stories.

This generation is different from the past, but it’s not necessarily a bad thing. As more data comes in about these young people, we can better understand how they fit into society and how to help them succeed.
