# data[].attributes.body
I interviewed one of the social media chairs in my house. I basically asked her what the importance of watching what you post is. She responded with the importance of PR or personal record. What you post could not only impact personal views about you but views about your other groups and organizations you are involved with.
Another question I had asked her was her thoughts on private setting usage on social media, and she feels that they are important because it not only keeps your things private from people. But it allows for you to chose who you add/ accept to be allowed to see those things.

Some teens feel that if they make their social media accounts private they will not gain followers and gain a decent amount because viewers cannot see their profile right away. But like Instagram, if you do not have your privacy on anyone and everyone can follow you and you don't really have control over it. But if you have your privacy on, you can accept and decline those who request to follow you. Some social medias such as Facebook have much harder privacy settings to understand, and they make it harder to understand so less people are apt to use them because they are confusing.

2. Blocking Someone Who You Don't Know, Or Someone Who Causes Problems.

# data[].attributes.body
In today's society many people have a hard problem blocking people that they have had issues with or people they do not know. Many people will not block ex's just because they want to keep an eye on them or whatever the reason may be. Or they won't block someone because they don't want to lose any followers, even if the person is constantly messaging you or whatever it may be. We must not be afraid to block those who hate on someone or someone we may not know.

3. Personal Experience with Cyberbullying

# data[].attributes.body
With technology becoming more and more involved in the lives of teens and adults, cyber bullying has been growing for teens. One can be cyber bullied in two ways. Online Harassment or cyber bullying (Sengupta, Chaudhuri, 2010, 258). You can sit there and think "oh this will not happen to me so it does not matter" but it can happen to anyone. I personally have experienced some online harassment from someone I do not know, but my ex-roommate did.

Some younger teens do not realize that what they post, it is instantly out for everyone to see. And if one posts something that is controversial or is going to get people to "talk" then you will have people talking about you and your life choices and decisions.

Being a female leads you to having a much larger chance of being cyber bullied or online harassed. "being female, posting pictures, chatting online, disclosing school information, instant messaging and flirting led to a much larger chance" (Sengupta, Chaudhuri, 2010, 288).

It has been found that, females have less chances of being targeted and cyber bullied or online harassment if they participate in extra curricular activities. So participating in sports and even Greek Life lower your risks.

8. Over Posting and Spending Too Much Time On Social Media

# data[].attributes.body
Social Media has started to consume the lives of teens all over the world. I even know that I post way too much, I have posted over 400 photos or videos on my Instagram. Also sometimes I notice I post a lot in spurts. I either post almost every day or not at all for a few weeks.

# data[].attributes.body
One problem I found was that teens and adults posted way too much information, or much more than what was needed. To the point that even their Facebook's show what town they live in, where they work, where they go/ went to school, where they used to live, birthdays, relationships and sometimes phone numbers. This provides easy access to those who do not know you to know all about you.

6. An Example of Why it is Important to Block Those You Don't Know.

I cannot stress enough the importance of blocking those who you don't know. This man started to bother me on Facebook when I was a junior in High school. I just ignored his messages. He lived in the town next to mine, and was also bothering a senior at my school who I knew well. One night he found out that my high school soccer team was playing at his school, and my senior friend played on the team. He went to her soccer game, then drove to my high school and watched my volleyball game against his high school. It had gotten to the point that our high school police officer had to drive to his house one day during school time and talk to him and tell him to leave us alone.
This photo was provided by my cousin who is a Junior in High school this year and this man has been out of school for 4 years now and is still bothering younger females.

How I started to notice that social media and our phones was really becoming a problem is that at events I would notice groups of friends sitting around on their phones and not even talking in person, they would send each other snap-chats or Instant messages.

Selfies tend to over run our social media life, we are constantly taking selfies and making sure we have "the perfect lighting" for the perfect photo. We are constantly looking for photo opportunities, more than enjoying the moment of whatever we are doing.

11. Mobile Devices Allow Pictures To Be Taken Without Warning.

Many children, teens and adults have had pictures taken of them without their consent, or them even noticing. This would happen in bathrooms, dressing rooms, locker rooms etc. The government had even realized that this was a huge problem, they created The Camera Phone Predator Alert Act. This bill was introduced to the house in January of 2009. This bill creates it so that every single mobile phone had to make a camera sound when a picture was taken. The sound was not supposed to be allowed to be disabled. But today you can turn your phone on silent and it doesn't make camera sounds.(H.R. 414- Camera Phone Predator Alert Act, 2009-2010 )
