Worth watching. Further thoughts might take a while. I am slow.

Don't post ANYTHING on the web which you want kept private. The hypothesis that we have to alter the web to let kids experience privacy is moronic. There is plenty of privacy in everyday life to be had. The Web is not such a place. Your cell phone is not such a place. Failure to understand this, is failure to understand privacy. Children of today value social connections above privacy. Maybe that is because they have much more experience with public social exchanges than with close private ones.
Now, the web might want to establish some sort of privacy to allow it grow more as a product. Anyone who steps in that mess, however, will be prime for a surprise down the road. |

Once you post something it's on the internet forever for everyone to see.
Most kids these days are very unaware of that. Even your empolyer checks your facebook, so it seems like we better watch what we say these days... |

I never understand the FB problem.
Look up my name and you will get a pic of an actor, and where I live-nothing else. Potential employers cant see anything. As far as the FB haters, its rare that someone actually uses their status as what you think/hear-no "sitting watching the simpsons" or "washing the car". But there is some of that

I don't quite get the whole facebook thing but I've seen posts on there from people that shouldn't even be stated in public yet alone put out where anyone can find it. One fellow I know would, and at time still does, puts very offensive statements about race etc and I warned him about it and he did his 'I have rights' thing, then his employer saw it. He no longer works for them.

"Have WE killed our privacy?"
"We" being those who make their private info available, yes. Interesting that many use that standard, that you made it available, others can do with that information what they wish, for this, but wouldn't apply it to anything labeled intellectual property. Post info about yourself on facebook, and people can and will use said info, and possibly republish it. Do that with a pdf, and oh boy. Any who: "Don't post ANYTHING on the web which you want kept private." Sums it up. It's no different that saying something in person, and then being annoyed that others know what you said.

I agree with those who say that anything posted in such ways should be considered public and inherits no expectation of privacy. Potential schools, employers, and in-laws are free to have such info.
Remember: Anything you say can and will be used against you… |
