I think that this is a major issue today because no one realizes just how public the internet is. Anything you put on the internet can be found by your friends, your teachers, your employers, anybody really, and what you put on the internet can stay there forever. It is so easy for someone to record an IM conversation without you even knowing it by simply copy-pasting it to Word, and people can take pictures of their computer screens with the press of a button. So next time you or your friend decides to put suggestive pictures on the internet, remember that anyone can see it and that it can be found years into the future. Do you want your grandchildren to see pictures of you when you were drunk and guzzling beer with a see-through white shirt on? I wouldn't think so.
So please, think about it. Cyberspace is dangerous, and everybody knows that. But with the onset of Facebook and blogging, nothing is safe. Remember that a simple photo can really screw you over.
