Think before you click.
WE NEED TO THINK – There are several reasons why we need to think before we click anything on the internet.
Because of the internet, there are virtually no limitations to what we could do. Furthermore, there’s an endless ocean of information and content that we can devour.
However, we need to realize that despite all the positives the internet brings, there are some serious negative impacts. As such, among the things that we need to look out for is our privacy.
Thinking Before we click reminds us that internet safety is of the utmost importance. The saying is designed to protect teens from overexposing themselves online, especially on social media.
After uploading a picture online, if it’s public, then you’ve basically lost control over it. It could be downloaded, manipulated, and shared without context and consent.
Because of this, we need to think about what we upload on the web. But, thinking about what we download is also important.
