Such a beautiful and instructive infographic! That's crazy how much time and money social media actually takes us!

The part about prices might be a little misleading, since most of people don't pay per MB but have prepaid data packages with much lower fees. Anyway, the data about time consumption are interesting, I've noticed on myself that since I've started using the social media apps, I'm spending much more time on them.
