When it comes to privacy on the internet I never really gave it much thought. Growing up all my friends had MySpace and I wanted me to join. I never did though because I just wasn't into that kind of stuff. Then as I got older parents and/or guardians would warn me to be careful about what I put on the internet and, again, I never really listened because it didn't apply to me.
When Facebook came out I was almost completely against it (until my friend made an account for me so I could befriend a certain girl I was liking at the time). And for a while I was careful about my personal information that I put on Facebook.
Not long after that I got a Twitter account. That's when I got carried away w with posting info. This was back before Twitter was popular so I posted things and just didn't care. One thing led to another, I now have an account on just about every social network (I even made an account for the New MySpace).
I haven't been concerned about putting my personal information out there for a while until last week when we talked about it in class. Ever since then I have been kind of paranoid.
At this point my stuff is already out there. There isn't much I can do about that. I've been thinking about it and now I just feel like I need to be more "aware" if what I put out there on the web.
