I think this is a big problem because this information is accessible to anyone. This is putting one in danger because some lunatic might see this and stalk you which are a serious problem. I also do not like the idea of just randomly meeting people on Facebook and then meeting up somewhere to meet because you never really know who the person is. I had a friend one time who was talking to some guy she met online and after a while she found out the guy was fake and had stolen someone else pictures and made a Facebook. My advice is to be careful what you put on your Facebook. I have had some friends who are constantly putting on their Facebook their location and exactly what they are doing.

I know people that have had their pictures stolen on facebook being used to bully others. The information we put on facebook makes it easier for someone to impersonate a victim. And although facebook have privacy settings a lot of young adults do not even bother to safe guard their page by keeping personal information personal.

I’ve discovered that identity theft is just another method used by cyber- bullies to incriminate or embarrass a particular person by using his/her personal information, photo and etcetera as a tool of humiliation. I recently read an article about a man taping into his coworkers Facebook account to get their personal information so he would be able to get into their personal computer to retrieve nude photos or explicit email for his pleasure.

These sites that promote violence are posted where our children see them and should not be allowed on the internet and I say they need to get on the ball and start doing something about these websites.
