Meghan Markle Sheds Light on the Harmful Effects of Social Media: "It's an Addiction"
Meghan Markle has been very outspoken about the dangers of social media and how harmful online trolling can be. During another conversation with Fortune for its Most Powerful Next Gen Summit on Tuesday, the Duchess of Sussex doubled down on her message and revealed that she hasn't been on social media for "a very long time" for her "own self-preservation."
"I've made a personal choice to not have any account, so I don't know what's out there, and in many ways that's helpful for me," she explained. "I have a lot of concerns for people that have become obsessed with it. And it is so much a part of our daily culture for so many people that it's an addiction like many others."
"You have the power to turn this around."
As for how to engage on social media in a healthy way, Meghan said it's important to be "conscious" and "responsible." She added, "Understand that it is not limited to that one moment, that you are creating an echo chamber for yourself. The more that you engage with things that are negative – not just for other people that you might not know but what it's doing to you as a human being - will really have lasting effects . . . you have the power to turn this around."
Meghan also shut down those rumors that she used to run her and Prince Harry's official Sussex Royal account, saying there was a "whole team" behind it. Watch Meghan's interview in the clip above.
