Privacy is a thing of the past....

The keynote speakers raised many good points about privacy issues concerning the internet. Though most of our lives are not on the cover of magazines like some celebrities, I bet a lot of us would be suprised as to how many people know things about us and some of them we may not know at all...

For instance, this blog is laying around somewhere in cyber space and anyone that wants to search privacy can probably find this posting.

However, I never thought of privacy how the speaker put it--more, worse, forever

What he meant by more was that more information is out there for people to find out about you

Worse--people tend to act worse or put worse things out about themselves whether it is language, photos, etc

forever--the information is out there forever.

This was very interesting because the things you put on facebook, twitter, etc are out there for people to find and we dont think about it. When tend to think that only our "friends" or perhaps not even all of them are seeing what we put out there. Unfortunatly people can misconstrue what you say, pictures you take, or in the instance of the speaker, speeches you give and change them around. We should all make sure to set privacy settings so what is available to the entire world, forever, is what we want.
