  5. What Type of Information Do You Think Is Private?

  6. Keep Your Identity Private • Revealing information like: • your name • your school • where you live • Posting your photo • could put you in a dangerous position and at risk of victimization online.

  7. Myspace and Facebook • Who has a myspace or a facebook account? • Many people on Facebook and Myspace post pictures, full names, addresses, the school they attend and even cell phone numbers. • This information is easily accessible at the click of a button to anyone. • How many of you have your profile set to private?

  8. Revealing information • Setting your profile to private is helpful, however you still need to be careful of who you add to your friend list. • Don’t forget to consider how fast information and images get forwarded to people beyond your group of friends via texting, IM, and e-mail.

  9. Photos • Photos posted online can give away more information than you may want. • Personal photos should not have revealing information, such as school names or locations. • Check the backgrounds of your pictures to make sure you are not giving out identifying information without realizing it. • For example: the name of a mall, the license plate of a car, signs, or the name of your sports team on your jersey or clothing.

  10. You Can’t Take it Back • Remember that online choices have offline consequences… • IMing, texting, posting info to Facebook or Myspace is all information that can be printed, forwarded, emailed, etc. • Nothing is really “private” once it sent or posted online. • Once you have posted something online you can not take it back.

  11. Who Are You Talking To? • You may not know the truth about people you first meet online. • You can be lied to or betrayed. • Time does not equal trust. • Be suspicious; any person worth having as a friend wouldn’t ask you to put yourself at risk.

  12. Who Can You Trust? • If anything makes you feel scared or uncomfortable on or offline you can trust: • Parents/guardians • Teachers • School counselors • School administrators
