Hi Emily,

This was a great post. I must admit that in the past, I’ve also been slightly aloof with regards to my privacy settings sometimes. But have since learned better. This is an especially pertinent topic, especially when it comes to your social media usage, or even lack thereof. In fact, social media companies have a profile of your personal information even if you do not have an account with them and directly use their product! They’re still able to gather information about you through your internet usage, which I personally found to be pretty haunting. So it’s all the more reason to be cautious about your privacy when you do use those sites. And I definitely echo your point about education needing to keep pace with modern changes in technology.

Thanks,

Joseph
