In my opinion, you can set a complex password to increase the security of your account.

I've seen quite a few people experiencing the same problem you're asking about. It significantly impacts their accounts. In my opinion, you should avoid clicking on suspicious links, don't log in to the same account on multiple devices, and set a somewhat complex password.

Yes, it’s not exactly that social media security is getting weaker, but attacks are growing much faster and becoming smarter, especially with phishing and AI-assisted scams. Around **1 in 5 social media accounts faces hacking attempts every year**, and most breaches happen because of stolen credentials, weak passwords, or phishing rather than platform failures.

Cybercrime has scaled massively in recent years, with hundreds of millions of social media accounts compromised annually and credential theft rising sharply as attackers automate scams and impersonation messages. Many hacks now look like normal logins because criminals steal passwords instead of breaking systems directly, which makes detection harder.

Here are the **most effective ways to protect accounts today** (these actually stop most real-world hacks):

**1. Use unique passwords for every platform**
Reused passwords cause the majority of account takeovers, so each account should have a different strong password or a password manager.

**2. Enable 2FA with an authenticator app (not SMS if possible)**
Two-factor authentication is still one of the strongest defenses against stolen passwords.
**3. Never click login or reset links from messages**
Over 60% of social media hacks start from phishing links pretending to be support or verification notices.

**4. Regularly check active devices and sessions**
Log out unknown devices and enable login alerts so you notice suspicious access quickly.

**5. Remove unused apps connected to your account**
Old third-party apps often keep permissions that attackers can abuse later.
In short, security itself isn’t collapsing, but attackers are industrializing scams and using automation, so average users feel more exposed. The biggest protection today isn’t technical skill, it’s good habits and awareness because most hacks now target human behavior rather than platform weaknesses.

It's not necessarily because social media account security is declining, but rather because users frequently click on spam links, creating opportunities for malicious actors to hack their accounts. Avoid clicking on links with unclear intentions.
