Privacy

Privacy and confidentiality has been an issue for many people using social media websites. Posting too much personal information on your page can cause problems such as people using your information in an inappropriate manner. Posting too much information makes you vulnerable to people stealing your identity and makes it easier for people with bad intentions to find out about your whereabouts. It can make for a dangerous situation when too much personal information is posted. Also, employers are starting to search the social media sites of possible job candidates. When employers see inappropriate posts or racy pictures, it becomes a reason for them not to consider you for the position. People need to be aware that what they post online can be seen by many and the more information they publish, is just more that can be taken and possible used against them in the future.
