Privacy and Confidentiality

There is a divide of people who care vehemently about their privacy being violated and those who just don't care. Surprisingly, those people who defend privacy likely don't even do things to protect themselves such as changing their password regularly. A compromised person may spread a compromised email, or social media account to one's workplace and cause troublesome damages.

Online harassment is also a topic of discussion when talking about internet privacy. Youths online are not always as safe as parents would like them to be. People are afraid of predators online that are trying to put harm to children. There are also cyber-bully peers that take advantage of those who don't speak up. Bullying, however, doesn't happen solely on the web and the "Safety-Public" article asserts that we shouldn't blame the internet.
