There is no 'smoking gun' linking social media use to mental health harm, a study using data from over 2 million people found

• A new study by the Oxford Internet Institute found little evidence that Internet use harms mental health. 
• The study analyzed whether there's a link between internet adoption and mental well-being. 
• Researchers noted that tech firms need to disclose the data they have for more thorough research. 

The idea that using the internet including using social media apps and smartphones can harm mental health has been disputed by a new global study published by the Oxford Internet Institute on Tuesday.
