All of this is speculation of course. The other explanation is he/she is so arrogant he thinks it cant happen to him/her, in other words, an idiot.

As they say : The Internet is serious business.

Well, not really.

There is a certain level of trust in any social media. Well adjusted people will discuss part of there personal lives as a matter of course.The people who use every opportunity to work in a personal reference are the ones you have to watch.

Its funny that a society that seems to be fixated on privacy can't keep its mouth shut about personal information. I am always amazed at the number of people who do not realize that millions of Internet users have the potential to read the material they post on the web. If you want to have a private conversation..do it in PRIVATE, and don't text or leave voice mail either...right Tiger?

The scariest place in the world( information assurance wise) to me is Facebook.

People put pictures of the kids, addresses, telephone numbers health conditions, you name it...it's insane. The controls are easily hacked,what a nightmare. What a goldmine for thieves and identity pirates.

Twitter is another one..."Hey Im at XYZ right now!." Meanwhile a van backs up to your house and takes all your stuff...

Consultants tell me that clients who are  serious about security and have proprietary information to protect block Facebook,AIM,IRC MySpace, Twitter ect.. and web based emails at their businesses.

Employees who work from the road do it with locked down VM ACE desktops ,  tunneling in to the corporate net through a boundry layer, a DMZ, then to CITRIX Meta frame , loading desktops based on job position.Internal employees use Citrix as well through a boundary layer. All locked down of course.

Touchy feely  companies who want employees to have access to these service can do so through "kiosk" applications separate from the internal network if they want to spend the cash.

Crazy world. I wonder what the next big social app is going to be?
