If there is one thing Millennials can say we’re experts on, it’s social media. The generation after us, sometimes referred to as Digital Natives or Gen Z, even more so. However, as our access to the digital world continues to increase so does the danger.
Analyze your online presence as you read through our theme pages to see if you’ve maybe shared a little too much or are comfortable with what can be found about you. We know it can be challenging, especially with all the different social media platforms you’re almost expected to be on or the temptation of online shopping.
But, there are dangers to being online and we don’t just mean your boss finding something you should have never posted. We’re talking catfishing, pishing and even social media data collection.
Social media is fun though and won’t be going away anytime soon, which is why we’ve Halloweenised our cover this week to depict how privacy is caught on the World Wide Web.
