NY Times article "Hinting That It's Good to Be Bad" 8/30/10 B2

This article is about how americans view privacy matters.  I think alot of young people blogs and post many things about themselves and dont realize how it may affect them later on in life.  When you post pictures of you and your friends engaging in activities that may be frowned upon by employers or people that gives you a bad name.  They also talk about how people are totally open to surveys and dont take the time to see if what they are writing is public information.  I am a very literal person and speak the truth about many situations, but the internet scares me to a point.  Even on facebook I dont give my birthdate and it is funny when people give me birthday wishes when it isnt even my birthday.  Also my brother is so scared of the internet that he doesnt even use he actual picture on facebook.
