Staying Private On Social Media

It is not hard to learn about people when we have social media. Social media tells all of our business because we allow it to. We answer question like "where do you live?" and "where do you work?". we deal with an easier way to get access to people's information.

If you were confused as to why our parents were strict about us using Myspace, then now you understand.

It is truly an invasion of privacy, but we allow it to happen. We think it is okay to post 'what we are doing' and 'what's on our mind'. We sometimes go overboard too. Some people post about break ups and talk about their sexual lives at times and that just be too much information that everyone should not know about.

Social Media is to keep in touch with people but unfortunately, very often, we add strangers.

Why do we add strangers on social media? (Join the conversation on twitter: @StepInsideTea)

You should always stay cautious and keep your private life PRIVATE. I know that we live in a society where social media is a must have, but you can still be private rather than throwing your business out there. Social Media is definitely entertainment and it is very fun. Throw your personal stuff into a journal.

Many jobs watch their employees on social media, so yes, be very mindful about what you post on these websites.

Let's Talk Politics

Politics are always at an all time, but it has been buzzing ever since the elections. Now I will not be biased due to the fact that my opinion may not be everyone else's. So, let us chat a little bit. 

We have so many different viewpoints about our new president, Donald Trump. Some are for it and some are seriously against him being in office due to no experience. 
He has been saying plenty of information dealing with irrelevant topics. He is against the recount and feels as though it is pointless.
If the recount is pointless, how come numerous people are for it? 
People have been roiting and protesting him becoming the next president of the United States. 

On today, he spoke about how people should have a consequence if they burn the American Flag. If you really think about it, is he trying to go against people's right to freedom of speech? Join me on twitter @StepInsideTea to chat about this story and more!
