Social Media Cyber Sense and Safety
Friday, February 25, 2011 at 16:04 We got an email from a friend today with the following video that’s pretty scary regarding photos you casually post online at social media and photo sharing sites. The point of this video is the ability of bad people to track locations of persons posting the photos or videos.
This is especially frightening when it comes to our children. Watch:
I’m ambivalent about this particular report. I can’t seem to verify - on a responsible, authoritative website - whether or not this is true in each respect. However, it started a train of thought, and for safety sake, I just went into my iPhone - version 4 - Settings, General, Location Services, and turned OFF my location for certain Apps. You can do this for iPhone 4, but not so easily for iPhone 3. It’s all or nothing for location reporting, but you can have the phone ‘ask’ if you want location reporting, and if so turn it on.
Furthermore, I went looking for social media, internet safety sites and found some that I think every parent and grandparent will want to know about.
I’ve listed them below (each link is ‘live’ so just click on it):
