No need to feel sorry for me . . . I prefer to live a safe life amongst total strangers - strangers that can be anyone behind a screen - including, but not limited to criminals behind bars.
Feel free to share too much information to your hearts content, but don't slam me for wanting to play it safe.

Too many people (all ages) go missing everyday - and why, because they shared too much info.

Seriously . . . ^^^^^^ nasty comment accomplished what?

Seriously, everyone needs to get with the times and start doing some reading on reality.

Sharing has always been a prominent part of what the Internet is and how it functions. And with social networks exploding in popularity in the past several years, sharing is probably the one aspect we utilize the most on the web. We share news, information, pictures and experiences, and by doing this we can build and maintain relationships as well as create new connections that we would have otherwise never met or worked with. But can this have adverse affects?

Just drink the kool-Aid and let it happen.

Can you share too much information?

In my opinion, yes, and I get the feeling that most of you would agree (of course if you don’t, I’m open to your thoughts). On many websites, especially social networks, there are literally text fields for every bit of information about you – phone numbers, where you work, where you live, where you go to school, your occupation, age and birthdate, who you know, other methods of contact such as email addresses and other online profiles….the list goes on.

Rule #1: Don’t Post Anything You Don’t Want Everyone To See

This is a fundamental that should almost be taught in school alongside Algebra and Biology. It’s important to realize that even if you’ve created filters for your contacts or have your information restricted to only those who follow you or who you approve of, that you should still watch what you share.

Try to refrain from statuses such as the one above. But don’t just limit this philosophy to complaining statuses. Apply this to your photos, location-specific posts and personal profile information.

Rule #2: Be Aware & Concerned About Potential Dangers

Being aware is one thing – sometimes it could just be a lack of knowledge. However, it’s just as important (if not more) to be concerned about those potential dangers. For example, let’s say you know that where you live, you’re at high risk of a break in or robbery – you’re aware. But, you take the approach that you’ll be fine and so you don’t lock your door. You have just increased the odds of your house being broken into tremendously. Now let’s add another aspect – you have a family. You most likely will now lock your doors all the time.

The Internet is the same way. It can just be just as dangerous, just on different levels. In fact, in some ways it can be even more dangerous because we don’t think of it in the applicable sense that it can be a tool to pry into lives. We think it’ll all be fine, but there are numerous stories of tragedies because someone allowed a little too much information to be shared with the wrong person.

Be responsible about who you share with and what you share. Think of the Internet as a giant space where people of all sorts roam. If this space was a real place that you were in, would you trust everyone with all your secrets, personal information, etc.

Quit being so naive.

If folks don't want to hear both sides of the coin then don't ask a question(s).
Geez . . . why is it that so many only want to hear from those that agree with with them 100%.
Oh, never mind, it appears fragile ego's are raging and refuse to think outside of the box.

she probably argues with dictionaries too.
she hasn't replied yet,because shes debating on which posts to flag.
you cant argue with someone who thinks theyre right,in their own mind

- holy cow ^^^^^^^^^^ is so full of "judgement" yet you have -0- clue who I am. So you judge my posts. You sir have created a false reality of what a person is vs. getting to know/understanding the facts as to who they are.

cowardness . . . AHHH, no. Oh, and by the by it's called cowardliness.
Why is it that so many on this forum are so close minded that they attack everyone's "offered" response/opinion vs. debating/seeing beyond what has been presented.

Never mind a closed mind = closed doors.

no pic, pass?
It's a test. And that's a dude above you!
