Ad if we, born before all this, perhaps sometimes turn up our noses and in the most hidden recesses of our brains the image of George Orwell appears from time to time to reawaken our reason, those who grew up immersed in sharing do not hesitate to publish photos , status and information without filter , with a candor that appeals to the hawks out there always looking for new blood and information to use and resell.
Are we therefore witnessing a simple and inexorable drift towards the annulment of the concept of privacy? Maybe yes, but it is good to remember that not everyone suffers this imposition of telling everyone everything. Because photo editor mixed with 'normal' users, there are just as many who know how to use the means, who know what to say and what not to say, who know what to tell about themselves to build their character or brand, in short, they 'use' social media before being used. We certainly need to pass this message on to digital natives.
Smart enough to quickly learn to use social networks, but not mature enough to know that there is a boundary between public and private that is best identified and not crossed. There are many risks and we all know them: from targeted advertising to not knowing who will come into possession of the information we spread around, but there is also a risk that has nothing to do with personal data collected by third parties, a psychological that exists but few see it: feeding one's ego excessively by posting glossy photos and statuses to have many followers, hearts or praise from friends.
