Post Lesson::: Reflections

but it is also when our hormones are raging
it will cause some unnecassary problems and decisions made

Sesssion 1: Astuteness in Revealing Information

You should have your COOL identity. COOL stands for:

  1. Cannot reveal information
  2. Original
  3. Out of this world
  4. Something that you Like

Any information that you reveal online is public. Once you placed the information online it is...

1. Freely accessible to anyone

  • All information you reveal online is freely accessible to anyone

2. Not within your control

  • You cannot effectively control who looks at your online information. E.g.Friendster, Blogger

etc

Practice Selective Disclosure of information. There is no need to lie in order to protect yourself. You become a liar if you habitually tell lies.

INFORMATION THAT YOU REVEAL ONLINE IS PUBLIC AND NOT PRIVATE!!!
