Abstract:
this article analyzes problems, threats and dangers in the
conditions of digital transformation, the need and theoretical foundations of
researching informational-cultural threats, socio-philosophical research of inter-
ethnic harmony and solidarity in the conditions of informational-cultural
struggles.
Key words:
information, information-cultural threats, information-
religious threats, information-psychological threats, secularism, international
harmony, digital transformation, information inequality, manipulation of
consciousness, information extremism, information crime.
We will list and briefly describe the new problems, threats and dangers
that await people in the conditions of digital transformation and are starting to
face them today. Information inequality. One of the dangers for people in the
information society is the problem of information inequality. Factors of social
division are accumulation, generation, use of knowledge. Not all members of the
information society can make practical use of the new opportunities it can give
to people. In addition, this includes not only economic and instrumental-
technogenic factors, but also the ability to provide some users with access to
society's informatics and information resources, but also humanitarian factors,
which mainly depend on the unique qualities of a person. Such factors include:
informational, including the linguistic culture of a person, informational
competence, education, as well as human motivation, the desire for knowledge
and self-study, and the development of intellectual abilities. After all, if a person
does not want to be an active member of the information society, then no
technology will help him.
The availability of information reduces the motivation to create new
knowledge, develop new ways of knowing. Rejection of knowledge due to its
increase in size indicates that internal personal structures are not ready for
increased loads. This is manifested in the lack of skills to assess the quality,
volume and depth of the received information, which leads to an increase in
social inequality [1].
Mind manipulation. The second and very serious threat to man in the
information society is related to the fact that the development of global

networks of television, computer communication, radio communication and
other information systems creates many opportunities to influence and
manipulate the public mind. By their mental nature, people are very suggestible
and therefore easily subject to targeted psychological influence at the sub
conscious level and therefore easily subject to targeted psychological influence
at the sub conscious level. This feature is used to control a large number of
people, create illusions, secretly deprive them of freedom of choice, change their
minds, motivate people in the right (some group) direction [2]. Manipulation of
mass consciousness is the main element of information warfare and is basically
the same as introduction to individual consciousness. prepared information. Its
effectiveness is reliable and clearly visible. For example, the results of election
campaigns for various authorities, as well as the extensive use of very expensive
advertising in television programs, are clearly visible. Research results show
that television has the strongest psychological impact on a person. The reason is
that the video information, in addition to influencing the human mind, directly
penetrates into his subjectivity. In addition, the person himself is not worried
about it and therefore cannot protect himself from this influence. This, to a large
extent, is the basis of the modern methodology of mind manipulation [3].
Community virtualization. Another, still little-explored danger for humans
in the context of digital transformation is the psychological phenomenon called
virtualization of society. Its essence is that real physical objects, processes and
events are replaced by virtual images that are very similar to echoes of objective
reality, but are not. These features, as well as the high dynamism of the society's
information framework, allow creating virtual reality in it. It is perceived by
man, along with physical reality. A typical example here can be the so-called
derivatives, that is, securities on the stock market, as well as the new virtual
currency - bitcoin. Speculative exchange of shares of industrial corporations,
appreciation or depreciation of exchange rates in creative financial markets - all
these are widely used in the world economy today and, as the analysis shows,
they threaten the sustainable development of society [4].
The virtualization of the social space and constant interference in the lives
of other people with the help of social networks paradoxically leads to an
increase in the feeling of loneliness "in the crowd".
Cyber diseases. In the conditions of digital transformation, another,
radically new threat to man is called cyber-diseases. These include the
psychological dependence of people on television, computer games, Internet
addiction, etc., which have already become a drug for many in modern society.

The maniacal fascination of some young people with computer games promoting
cruelty and violence is also frightening. These phenomena are the most common
in information-developed countries today and are one of the negative results of
the process of informatization of society. It can be considered that these events
will develop as this process develops further. Already, not only addiction is
developing, but symptoms of more serious diseases appear, for example,
phantom ringing syndrome - it seems to a person that the phone in his bag is
ringing or vibrating. Another example of a new disease. Nomophobia -
"Nomobilephobia" - fear of being without a mobile phone. The disorder is on the
DSM5 list of mental disorders in America. Larry Rosen explains the causes of this
disease as a result of nervousness when a person is afraid of losing something.
Information crime. The formation of the information society opens many
opportunities for the development of information crime, which can be directed
against the individual, society and the state. This is called computer crimes,
which are mainly aimed at unauthorized access to the databases of automated
information systems of government bodies, financial organizations and
industrial enterprises. In these systems, in the process of informing the society, a
large amount of confidential information is collected not only about the
activities of relevant organizations, but also about personal information about
citizens of the country, their addresses, phone numbers, property, income, etc.
This information is of course of great interest to criminals. and many of them
already use the services of information technology professionals.
Information extremism. A sign of informational extremism is physical,
material, and moral damage to the legal interests, rights and freedoms of
citizens, it is emphasized in the study of R. V. Upornikov [5].
The main characteristic features of informational extremism can be
mentioned: the radicality of actions; fight against society; the spirituality and
immorality of the content; institutionality; distortion of political and legal
thinking.
It is important that the information on the Internet is presented not only
in the form of a static "picture", but also that it is characterized by activity, says
researcher A.Kh. Valeev [6].
The volume and speed of information flow is attractive to organizers of
information extremism. In fact, they "engage" Internet users in various
discussions and debates with the specific goal of changing personal opinions,
ideologies, principles, worldviews, and leading to changes in individual or group

behavior, as well as creating public opinion that is beneficial to the influential
party.
"In the conditions of globalization and the informatization of society, when
the obstacles in the control and management of information flows are practically
removed, when the national borders of the states are raised to the level, mainly
communicatively, the former tremist actions of young people are adopted to
influence the minds and behavior of young people," it is said. In the researches of
E. O. Kubyakin and A. N. Safronov [7].
Information terrorism. The concentration of information in automated
information banks, which provides remote access to users, is one of the
important directions of the process of informatization of society, as it
significantly increases the efficiency of information use. However, at the same
time, the possibility of unauthorized access to this data, as well as the risks
associated with its theft and even intentional corruption, are also increasing. A
new phenomenon in the field of information crime is information terrorism. As a
result, the operation of the information system can be practically paralyzed.
Most often, this situation occurs as a result of specially organized large-scale
network attacks. In recent years, these attacks have been repeatedly observed
using the opportunities. To solve such problems, a relatively new direction of
ensuring the protection of individual information rights is developing. Such
rights are already protected by the laws of a number of countries, including
Russia, but the perfection and simplification of the protection procedures is still
a long way off.
The battle for information. Among the threats of the information society, a
very special place is occupied by information warfare, the methods and tools of
which are already well developed in theoretical and practical aspects.
Information wars are already a very common and effective method of conflict in
politics, economy and culture. In the future, with the development of the tools
and institutions of the information society, it can be assumed that information
wars will become more widespread both locally and globally.
Information warfare is fighting for people's minds and hearts, with all the
power of computer technology, it's just a tool. And the goal is to control people's
minds in order to gain a certain power by spreading specially prepared
information. Over time, an understanding of the special importance of personal
communication and communication with listeners will emerge. New
technologies are emerging based on the integration of different communication
systems that support each other in the information conflict.

Such types of information attacks as dissemination of false information,
manipulation of social consciousness, erosion of national and spiritual values,
promotion of values completely foreign to mentality, destruction and change of
people's historical memory, and cyber terrorism are spreading widely [8]. In this
process, the world's most powerful mass media, CNN, BBC, and Reuters news
agencies have a high chance. Through them, you can receive information from
any part of the world and transfer it to any part. Mass media has become a
powerful force today. They have the ability to lie about them and turn lies into
truth. Therefore, every person must have the culture of receiving, using and
transmitting information [9].
As long as humanity does not have a culture of using information, it will not
be able to get out of the tracks of "terrible lies". Today, the Internet has taken
over the whole world. It is important to understand its positive and negative
aspects. A third of the world's population now uses the Internet. More than 12
million of them are citizens of Uzbekistan. The Internet should be viewed not as
a source of truth, but as an opportunity to obtain information. Independent
thinking is required to distinguish truth from falsehood in all forms of
information spread over the Internet. After all, independent thinking is the main
factor in the fight against ideological and informational threats, ideological
immunity, high spirituality [10].
In conclusion, a number of trends that have arisen in the world require radical
changes in various areas of human society, ensuring the security of information
systems and the application of information technologies in the educational
process. The expansion of the volume of information, the technological
possibilities of its storage, processing and transmission creates the basis for
their use in all sectors of society.
