Nearly 45% of adults who are active on social media say they regret
how much they used it when they were younger, according to a Kaspersky
survey of 1,240 working professionals across six Asia-Pacific countries
(Australia, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam). On the
other side, Security.org’s survey of 1,012 US adults found that roughly
14% of those who deleted Facebook reported no change in happiness
afterward, 86% described themselves as happier, and 0% said they were
less happy. That survey never asks “do you regret deleting?”, so the
true deletion-regret rate it implies is closer to zero than to 14% — the
~14% is the satisfaction-neutral group, a conservative ceiling rather
than a measured regret rate. The implied ratio favors
deletion, but the comparison is imprecise: one survey measures
retrospective volume regret among current users, the other measures
post-deletion mood among a self-selected group of quitters.
The strongest experimental evidence comes from Hunt, Marx, Lipson, and
Young (2018) at the University of Pennsylvania. In a randomized
controlled trial, 143 undergraduates were assigned to either limit
Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat to 10 minutes per platform per day or
use social media as usual for three weeks. The limited-use group showed
significant reductions in loneliness and depression compared to
controls over the three weeks. This is one of the few studies
establishing a causal (not merely correlational) link between social
media reduction and improved well-being.
The main weakness in framing this as a clean action-vs-inaction pair is
that “deleting social media” is rarely a permanent, total act. Many
deleters migrate to other platforms, reactivate after a few months, or
simply reduce usage without full deletion. The Security.org survey
focused exclusively on Facebook, not all social media. The Kaspersky
figure applies to Asia-Pacific professionals, not a globally
representative sample. What the data does suggest, directionally, is that
sustained heavy use generates more stated regret than leaving does —
a finding corroborated by Hunt et al.’s experimental evidence that
reduction causes genuine well-being improvement.

Kaspersky Digital Reputation Economy survey conducted by YouGov in November 2020 across six Asia-Pacific countries (Australia, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam), n = 1,240 working professionals who use social media at least 1 hour/day. The 45% figure captures retrospective regret about volume of past social media use, not current-session regret. Population is Asia-Pacific, not global — earlier descriptions of this as a "global" survey were inaccurate.

Security.org surveyed 1,012 US adults who had ever held a Facebook account. Among those who deleted or deactivated, the happiness breakdown was: 45.6% significantly happier, 40.5% slightly happier (86% happier total), 13.9% neither more nor less happy, and 0% less happy (0% slightly less + 0% significantly less). The survey asks ONLY about happiness change — it never asks "do you regret deleting?" Because 0% reported being less happy, the true deletion-regret rate implied by this data is near zero, not 14%. The ~14% we surface is the satisfaction-NEUTRAL group used as a conservative ceiling on the share who felt no benefit — a proxy, not a measured regret rate (hence proxy_only: true). Note: article was updated/republished in 2025 but original data collection was 2021.

Corroborates that deletion intent is common and driven by negative experiences, not impulsive decisions likely to generate regret.
Lưu ý
The action and inaction figures come from different surveys with different populations and different operationalizations of "regret." The Kaspersky 45% measures retrospective regret about past usage volume among Asia-Pacific working professionals (not "global" as previously described — the survey was conducted by YouGov in six Asia-Pacific countries in November 2020). The Security.org ~14% is an imputed ceiling: it is the satisfaction-neutral group ("neither more nor less happy", 13.9%) from a happiness measure among US Facebook deleters — not a direct regret question. Critically, 0% of deleters said they were less happy, so the true deletion-regret rate implied by the data is near zero; the ~14% is a conservative upper bound on the share who felt no benefit, carried as a proxy (proxy_only: true). These are different constructs (stated regret about volume vs happiness change after deletion) measured on different populations (Asia-Pacific professionals vs US Facebook users). Hunt et al. (2018, U Penn, n=143) provides the strongest experimental evidence: randomly limiting social media to 30 min/day significantly reduced depression and loneliness, suggesting that heavy use genuinely causes harm rather than merely correlating with it. Facebook deletion is not equivalent to deleting all social media; people who leave one platform often migrate to another. The roughly 3:1 ratio should be read as directionally suggestive — those who stay are more likely to express regret than those who leave — but the precise magnitude is weakly grounded.
