I'd choose B as the answer.

Our entire social lives these days are mediated and we are now leaving in a mediated era. Social media, for instance, has profoundly influenced in inter-personal communication. Options A and D contributes to the interaction and the fulfillment of peoples' social needs and social media has become a preferred mode of communication with the rise of digital and mobile technologies.

Option C also illustrates an effect of media on human communication, which only leaves us with option B
