Privacy & Confidentiality

The issue of privacy and confidentiality that are related to new media is trending in the recent years. We are no longer keeping our identity on cards and on paper that’s stashed in our safe. With the explosion of new media and social networking websites surfacing, people are pouring in their personal information without regards of who might be on the receiving end. We must be careful on what we post on social media websites as well as how we allow our information to be transferred. We can’t simply enter our house address and name because we would like to sign up for a random poll that’s requesting these information. Social media is constantly talking about people’s identity being stolen and people having access to other people’s social Medias accounts. I believe everyone must find a way to secure their information one way or the other from getting into the hands of the wrongdoers.

  1. I completely agree with you about this type of security. We really don't place enough value on our information and privacy, especially when bargaining for other goods.

  2. I couldn't agree with you more. People have become naive in a way to how posting personal information on the web can harm their privacy and security
