Social Networks
People have very mixed feelings on privacy when it comes to Social Networks like Facebook, twitter, and myspace. EFF talks about how those Social Networks trick you into signing the agreements. And how you can change your settings so you can still have a facebook but do not have to agree with the policies. In my opinion, I do not think that Facebook is trying to trick you. They give you big long paper on their policies and if you really don't want people to read what you are posting, then you read the paper. And you should not be posting things that you don't want people to see, because when you put something on the internet it is there forever. In conclusion, I can see where the EFF is coming from in there argument, but should you really have to be hiding the things you put on the internet from people? I think not.
