Excellent write-up.

Many people do not really know where to draw the boundary when it comes to social media. There have been cases of people getting hired and fired due to social media posts. People have been kidnapped and those kidnapped found via social posts. Many have been stalked and raped/killed/robbed just by their use of social media. It is unfortunate that people take this highly useful, yet dangerous innovation lightly.

Not just people getting fired from jobs and being kidnap, there was one instance in my home (Philippines) that a group of graduating student wasn't allowed to join their graduation rights due to one post in their social for allegedly violating some policies of their schools.

It is unfortunate that people take this highly useful, yet dangerous innovation lightly.

I think people favors the comfort that social media gives them despite inherent issues on privacy. I personally won't recommend quitting social media, but will advise people to stay their private data in private.

By the way, thanks for the compliment. Enjoy a slice of !PIZZA
