Why care for your identity?
• Strangers can find out about whom you are rather easily if you don’t work to keep things private.
• Things they can learn include your thoughts, school, community, and sometimes even home.
• The saying goes, “Don’t talk to strangers” but if you don’t care for identity, you are practically telling them every little bit of information about yourself.

Permanent Effects
• Even if you happen to realize a wrongdoing on your part and delete something you post, someone could have seen it.
• Screenshots!
• In the case you were to cyber bully, the victim could print out your post and report your action.
• Same goes for pictures.
• This isn’t anything you, the poster, can do anything about. The only thing you can do is to think before you click.

What can I post then?
You can post things:
• you are comfortable with sharing with others (including your family) (ex: pictures of your dog)
• you are comfortable with people having access to save or print
• that wouldn’t make people think twice about you
• wouldn’t hurt those around you
