Why Would I Want To Put Any Information On The Internet At All?
According to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg:
“People have really gotten comfortable not only sharing more information and different kinds, but more openly and with more people. That social norm is just something that has evolved over time.”

However, often times, it’s not a person’s willingness to share information, but rather, their failure to understand the nature, extent, and consequences of sharing their personal information online.
Sharing of personal information online has undergone a rapid evolution. Most people don’t even realize how accessible they through online channels. For example, did you know that Google has a record of every search you have ever performed?
The availability of online personal information is also playing a role in our legal system. From plaintiffs, to defendants, to jurors, online personal information and photos are impacting the outcomes of cases.
While I embrace social media, web technology, and obviously, search engines, I believe that the average internet user and social media consumer is greatly under-informed about how much of their personal information is available online.
It will be very interesting to see how the implications of online privacy, or the lack thereof, play out. One thing is for sure, this is not as open and shut as Mr. Zuckerberg might believe, or prefer.
