Social media has not shown an ability to “self correct” perhaps because by its very nature, the responses can only be positive and thus, there is no self-correcting mechanism built into its algorithm. Below are some of the ads that you may have seen on social media that were released as being traced back to Russian origin.

When using social media, think about the platforms being used and mix it up by mashing together text, hyperlinks, images, and video. In my opinion, teachers should be advised not to share video conferences or pictures from such sessions online regardless of whether or not waivers have been signed. This definitely applies now.
