FaceBook Is Using You is the new article that I have read this week; written by Lori Andrews. This Article is about how Facebook watching and following what you do to offer advertisements.
For example say if you was editing your profile and you put your favorite books, sports, and goals. Face book would sell that information to advertisement company's for money.
I think people should only feel violated if they was to sell personal information to buyers but then again i don't think you should even put personal information online because of hackers now-a-days.
By Personal information i mean like their phone numbers, where they are going, telling if they have a free house(no one is home), or if they are doing something illicit.
Some people don't really care what they post on Face book, but sometimes jobs might look at the things you post on Face book, and judge according to what you posted or do because it may portray a bad image to who they think you really are.
Recently I have been watching what I post on my status because I have family members as friends and a program that gives me college courses is one of my friends also. So I now make sure that I watch my language and behavior.
From reading this article i will always watch what I post and spread the word to make sure everybody doesn't make a little mistake that can mess up their futures.
