Abstract:
An ability to instantly transmit and replicate information provides new means of identity construction and their impact on a person‟s identity in the modern world. One of them is a social network as a form of interactive sociality transferred to virtual space. Social networks place a variety of entertainment content, provide access to information or means of further work with it at the users‟ disposal, and affect the person‟ s perception of the world and himself. The paper explores some aspects of social networks functioning, which affects the modern person‟s identity. It is observed that the process of self-assertion as a virtual person is not just a game for fun, but both a potential danger and a new space of creative self-realisation in the information field, which can change significant aspects of the user's identity including ethical ones.
