Recently, Facebook announced they may debut a new 'location' feature. Using a smartphone's GPS, you can post on your Facebook page your exact location.
Being a 'non-Facebook' user, this sounds nerve wracking. After the incident of when the girl was kidnapped, due to too much information that was leaked on Facebook, it does not sound good. What worse is there, than a 'tracker' on Facebook, the leading site on information theft. Honestly, it's almost as if Facebook wants, theft to happen. To me, Facebook did not make the right choice this time.
What was once programmed out of a college dorm room, is now a world-wide sensation. Letting friends know what you're doing. And allowing them to comment on pages, leading to the next issue: cyber bullying. Now illegal in Massachusetts and other states, bullying must not be tolerated. After the South Hadley incident, bullying has been increasing, getting worse and worse. On the flip side bullying has become more aware of. Inspiring speeches, protesters, ads, and more. Is Facebook making the wrong move? You tell me.

I'm not a Facebook person either. I saw an internet page that says someone from our school is having her mom pull her out because of bullying. She was the one that got beat up in December. Part of it was phone calls and texts, but some of it was Facebook too. Her mom told the a local newspaper, and she complained that our principal and superintendent aren't doing enough to stop the bullying. Now the whole family is moving this summer.
ReplyDeleteYeah I just read that article on the ****** *** today. I had no idea about this either. I tried to see what she looked like from last year's yearbook, but get this she's not in it.
