Privacy

With all the new outlets of new media, privacy has become one of the major talking points today. It has become increasingly difficult for users to understand how to protect one's self on social media and there are several ways people's accounts can be breached. In the article, "Facebook Privacy Is So Confusing Even the Zuckerberg Family Photo Isn't Private", the author describes how Facebook's privacy settings are so confusing that even the family of the founder has trouble understanding it. I can see how this may be a problem and with the increased amount of time spent on new media nowadays, we put a lot on the internet. All the information we put on new media and the interactions we have can potentially be leaked.
