In today’s world privacy is hard to define. You can’t be private any more. With computers and online stuff somehow someone knows everything about you. I think privacy should be that people only put information out that they want to be out there.
I didn’t think I shared much information on facebook. I never gave my number out, didn’t give my address. Just two weeks ago I was looking on my facebook settings and found out that my cell phone number was on there. I couldn’t think of how it got on there but then I remembered it asked for my number as a form of password recovery. I didn’t know that they would be putting the information on my wall. I don’t want anyone who looks up my name to have my contact information people already can get your email just by how you log in.
One of the scariest things I’ve seen is was the website shown in class. My dad works for a pretty secured plant and our phone number isn’t even in the phonebook. I looked his name up and all of our information was on there. It had our address the apartment complex my dad owns and our river house. All had the exact number of occupants as well. I didn’t pay but it said they had both of my parent’s salaries. That is very scary that they can have all of that information eve from someone who is not even in the phone book.
