 This post explores the risks of using Facebook, and the risks of your peers using Facebook even if you do not. Facebook transformed the way that the world interacts. For many, it has become the prime forum for social participation. Critics of Facebook point to the narcissistic exhibitionism which it promotes, but the internet site has also provided communities, groups, activists, and individuals with a virtual nexus.

This connectivity has not come without a cost. As we meander, linger, and troll through the internet, our choices transform into pieces of data which characterize our virtual counterparts. This data can then be used by companies attempting to sell us products, and in some cases, by law enforcement officials attempting to peer into our lives.
