Tracking Teresa Video

In the video "Tracking Teresa", Teresa gave out little information, that ended up being a bigger deal than she thought. she gave out information like what she likes to do, her email address, and her brothers name. When in her email, she gave out her number, her moms name, and her email address again. After a little bit of tracking in only 20 minutes, you already know where Teresa lives, directions to get there, and what school she goes to. The only personal information I have given out was my number, gender, and city I lived in. Also things I like to do. I think the most important thing to remember when using the internet is common sense. Think about the kind of people that could be on there and see what you post or put about yourself.

In another video called "Two kinds of Stupid", a junior in highschool was a star swimmer who made a new record, had really good grades, and a scholarship. After a swim meet one day his friends threw a huge party that he went to. He started drinking because everyone else was and took a lot of pictures. The pictures were bad because people were drinking. The next day, he posted the pictures online and set it to public so that way everyone can see them. Someone he went to school with sent the pictures to the principal and so he was called down to the office. The coach was also there and didn't like the situation. he was kicked off the team, lost his parents trust, got suspended, and had to say goodbye to his scholarship. Not only was he in trouble, but all of his friends that were in the picture also got into trouble. All because he posted one picture.
