Wednesday 20/4 I was watching the Hungry Beast on the ABC, where they made a very valid point. People often tell social networking sites like facebook all their personal information that they wouldn't tell a stranger. The cast on the hungry beast dressed up with notebooks and went around asking people on the street the questions listed on facebook. The first person they spoke to actually said that she wasn't going to tell them that. Another person who was answering their questions, was asked what he was doing right now and when he answered they pulled out a megaphone and repeated it. This made me realise that in schools they are telling the students to be careful but there isn't much of a focus on educating the adults about the dangers of posting too much information on the internet. So my full A4 size poster is aimed at university students and up. This age group has just as much cause to be wary on the net as these people have credit cards and credit card fraud is popular.
