Danielle weighs in on the topic of online privacy:
First off, I assure you this blog isn’t becoming a commentary on Facebook (note the previous posts Facebook Success Story: The Pickle and Facebook is Taking Over the World), but considering it is pretty much the biggest social media outlet out there (going on, if not already surpassing, 500 million users), it is kind of hard to ignore it.
For the last month or so, Facebook has been under fire for their privacy controls, or should I say, lack thereof. They’ve since admitted they ‘made a bunch of mistakes’ and improved their privacy page so that you have better control, but their issues uncovered a bigger question-
Does privacy exists online? Should it?
To read the rest of the article and to learn why Danielle’s believes that, “Instead of asking if online privacy exists, I’ll ask you this—Why would you want to get online, just to hide?” head on over to The Atomicdust Blog.
In case any of you were wondering I fit into the “Eh, who cares. Online privacy was dead a long time ago” category as well.
