Online Activity: Censored


Our class today really had me thinking that in today's world, anything you do or say, especially online can be used against you. Like we mentioned in class today almost everything you post on facebook can be retrienved/viewed. The part that really upset me about this is the fact that even if you delete something on facebook, it still stays in the system for a long period of time. When it comes to applying for jobs, I feel like this could really pose as an issue. To my understanding employeers could be be viewing information that was posted to a profile years prior and use that as a basis to decided whether or not someone will be hired for a job, which I really think is unfair, especailly since things can be so easily miscontrued online.
