Information You Should Not Share on Social Media



There is no doubt that the Social Media has provided a very good means of sharing information and interaction between families and loved ones.  In fact, those you shouldn't have met again in life are contacted with easy, kudos to the originators. 

Because of the overwhelming benefits users are getting, they have forgotten that there is also a very big limitation to what you can share on the social media.

This post is to remind you that it is not everything that concerns you that has to be shared on the Internet.  The following are some of the information you shouldn't share on the Internet.

Don’t Share Information on the Activities of Your Kids

Parents who are obsessed with the beauty, handsomeness or achievements of their kids are always tempted to share their faces, schools they attend and other activities of these kids on the Face Book or other Social Media.  This is not healthy for these kids in terms of security.  When you expose the faces and where your kids can be found, you are successfully helping Kidnappers, ritualists, robbers and other criminally minded people to locate your kids.

Don’t Share Your Nude Pictures

Posting naked or half dressed pictures of you and yours on the social media is not a good idea at all.  Whatever you have placed on your Face Book or other social networks is there for the whole world to see, and when these images get to the wrong hands, it can be used against you if not now, then in the near future when you will opt for responsible positions.  Remember that when you expose your body for the world to see, your reputation is at stake.


Don’t Paste Your Credentials

I see a lot of people pasting their certificates and other identities on their Face Book.  This is very wrong because half of those who use the social media are not as friendly as you are made to believe.  Your credentials and identities can be manipulated and used for criminal activities and you will bear the consequence.

Don’t Share Other Peoples Pictures

You may need to obtain permission from those you wish to share their photographs on the internet.  If you go ahead and share those pictures you have taken at a party, church and other ceremonies without first knowing whether the owners wants it to be exposed, you are infringing on their rights and you can be sued for that.  So before you post that group photograph put those in it on notice to avoid embarrassment.
  

And the last but not the least, don’t share your secrets (your ugly past) on the internet.  This is because when you vie for an elective post in the future, your opponent will use those secrets against you.  Who knows if you are the future leader we are looking for!
