I am dedicating a lot of space to cybersecurity issues, but it is one of the most important issues facing all of us today.
So here is more on what you can do to avoid posting information that you would not compromised.
Employ what you learned during communications about the responsibility of the sender and the perspective of the receiver. Quick phrases without context, mixed with emotion, and combined with a lack of nonverbal cues are easily misread. Always think about how you want to be viewed, and don't believe that it doesn't reflect on you away from the keyboard. If it's posted online, it does!
Online gaffes are played out online all the time, whether by a politician or a celebrity or even among your friends. Odds are you know someone whose relationship has been affected by something said online. So always take a moment before pressing "enter" or "send" and exercise a strict rule about how and when you will engage online. Remember this is ink for the entire world to see, and not only immediately, but likely until the end of time.
