Journal Writing T3 W6 : Cyber Contacts

I have never revealed my personal information online as I do not think it is save to do so.
Some forms of personal information that can be shared online are age,gender and hobbies. Some forms cannot be shared online are photos,full name,phone number,email address and house address and your school. The dangers of sharing personal information are if you reveal your photos, people may use it against you. If you reveal your full name, they may make fun out of your name. If you reveal your phone number and email address, you may get unwanted calls and emails. If you reveal your house address and school,they may harrass you. I would not give any of my personal information if my Cyber pal requested for personal information to be shared and I will stop talking to him and ignore him. I would also tell my parents about him. If any of my cyber pals asked me to go out with them, I would not do so as it is very dangerous as I do not know them. But I would if it is someone I know and trust. I would also tell my parents and get them to come with me. I can protect myself from people with evil intentions in the cyber space by not mixing with them and not chatting with anyone I do not know.
