Oops I did it again- Framing-Privacy
Facebook and other social networking sites have changed socialization in many different societies and the privacy component has changed it as well but in a good or bad way?
1. Are social networking sites negatively hurting interpersonal communication by providing a technology mask that does not allow some to show who they really are?
2. Does the term “friend” take on new meaning in this day and age because people are more prone to accept a complete stranger because they know a friend of a friend? Is that friendship at all?
3. Are privacy settings on certain SNS’ effective if companies and/or professional organizations can get around them? Therefore, is facebook a means of truly expressing yourself if it is used as a deciding factor when getting a job?
