Facebook is using you ?


The article facebook is using you is very interesting to me. Before reading this article, this article I never really cared about the things I posted online. However now I know that the things I post online can be used against me.
    In the article, it says that face book makes their money by selling ad space to companies that want to reach is. Then they choose key words or details that we use in relationship status, location, activities, favorite books or employment. According to the article material found online has been used against people battling for child custody or defending them selves in criminal cases. Internal revenue service searches facebook and myspace for evidence of tax evader’s income. Employers even sometime decide weather to hire people based on their online profiles.70% percent of recruiters ad human reroutes professionals in the united states have rejected people based on data found online.
 I don’t think people should look on people stuff if its not about them or for them I feel as though its disrespectful and invading other people privacy, And I don’t think that people should hire people based on what they say online because people can say allot that don’t mean that they that type of person maybe they meant for job maybe they can do the job. So I think people should mind they business and let people have their space!
