LONDON -- A Facebook "dislike" button could lead to a "new wave of bullying" on social media, Cara Delevingne has warned.
In September, Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook was working on a "Dislike" button, a tool designed to help people "to express empathy".
In an interview with The Sunday Times, the model -- who boasts 3.6 million followers on Facebook, 27.5 million on Instagram, 4.9 million on Twitter -- shared concerns about the consequences of the social network's new feature.
"If you can go around disliking someone’s pictures, that is going to set off a whole new wave of bullying,” she said.
“These companies are making so much money, they just want the new thing. If it’s something that is going to cause people harm, I really think we should steer against that."
"'Like' away — but if you have a bad thought about someone, keep it to yourself."
Last week, Facebook launched Reactions -- buttons that allow people to express love, laughter, surprise, sadness or anger -- foregoing a dislike option.
"Not every moment you want to share is happy. Sometimes you want to share something sad or frustrating," Zuckerberg said about the launch.
