Adults can decide for themselves what information they want to give out to virtual strangers. | Also turning 18 does not suddenly give you the wisdom to make the best decisions for yourself. I was 18 once and looking back made some undesirable decisions. Now you can make them online for the whole world to see. I really like the new public service ads that are about the internet. One is where a bunch of random strangers out in public comment to a girl about a revealing photo she posted. The other is a teenager yelling through a megaphone out in public stuff they posted online that they thought was confidential. My point is whether your 16, 18, or 68 be careful what you say on the internet.
