Personally, I manage everything I post on any of
my social networks. As a high school student who is preparing to apply to
colleges, I have to watch what I publish on this public websites. This is
because anyone and everyone can see my posts. Even is someone’s account is on
“Private”, people they don’t know can still see some of their posts. Also I
have had some of my friends get in trouble because they’ve posted something
they shouldn’t have. Some of these kids ultimate got suspended from school, in
trouble with their parents, or lost their good friends. In my opinion you can’t
get rid of your digital footprint. I believe this because everything you tweet,
post, or like; anyone can see this and then report it. Therefore posting it on
their profile so other people can see it. So even if you delete the original
post, it really isn’t gone. After researching tops for managing an online
reputation, a lot of sites suggested different things. One site suggested to
never argue on a social networking site and to be polite and to remember that
nothing is every truly deleted.
