Managing your social media

But something is missing here
Smartphones
You always have it on you!
Replaced your alarm clock, music player,
camera, bank, videogame console, etc.
Frequent updates
Most (if not all) functions of your Mac/PC can
be done but much easier to transport (back
pocket)
24 hour connectivity
The Cloud!


So what does this mean?
If you constantly have your phone, which is
connected 24/7, your personal information
details of your day, your preferences, your
connectionsbecomes PUBLIC
Your data, once uploaded, is ALWAYS out there
If you mess upyou cant take it back.
