We live in Information Age, where any information can be accessed just by a click of a button. There is no more need in visiting a library or finding banned books, all the material lies on a surface of the endless expanses of the internet where any person can read, share and discuss everything one desires. Such a great opportunity has never occurred in human history before, and it seems that now everybody can become highly self-educated. Unfortunately, new social media as a whole and Facebook in particular, is an insurmountable obstacle against achieving this goal,; because Facebook contains tons of inaccurate information. This fact was predicted in 1932, by a British writer Aldous Huxley. In his book "Brave new world" he states that our modern world will be drowned in the sea of irrelevance. In my work, I plan to prove Huxley's point by discussing the reason why Facebook misapply function of the information by providing immaterial, usually false information. I will validate information provided in Facebook and demonstrate its response. Also, I will present statics of people’s activities in Facebook. After gathering all necessary material, I will make my own conclusions of effects and impact Facebook creates to its users.
