Maintaining Internet Privacy 

Lorenzo: I wouldn’t post all of those photos on social media sites. 

Pamela: Why not? Only my friends and family are going to see them. 

Lorenzo: I wouldn’t be so sure. And I wouldn’t post all of that personal data either or divulge1 personal information. You don’t know who may gain access to your page. 

Pamela: There are privacy safeguards on this website. I can block anyone I don’t know from getting access, so no one can see what I post without permission. 

Lorenzo: Well, the people who run the website itself have access. They could track what you do and what you post, and extract data from your page to sell to third- party buyers. 

Pamela: No, they can’t do that. I’d know if they were doing that. 

Lorenzo: How? 

Pamela: Well... 

Lorenzo: As I said, that’s happening as we speak. And those are the legitimate2 uses of your information. Hackers3 can gain access, too, with malicious4 intent. They can do a lot of damage with the personal data you’ve posted. 

Pamela: So, what should I do? 

Lorenzo: Take down most of your posts and photos, at least the ones you wouldn’t want everyone to see. 

Pamela: But that would mean no one would know anything about me. Worse yet, it would mean having a really boring page. 

Lorenzo: It’s either risk being boring or risk an invasion of your privacy. 

Pamela: Wow, what a dilemma5!
