| Abstract | Social media users often have regrets about some of the information they post, but find themselves unable to remove information that will damage their reputations when they are seeking employment or in other important contexts. Controlling privacy in one's personal information has become nearly impossible. Digital reputations are now more prevalent than ever before, and although individuals may want to change their online persona, legal and non-legal mechanisms that could be put in place to protect them have been instituted too slowly to catch up with the plethora of issues surrounding the social media scene. Remedies to protect unsuspecting social media users are largely unavailable and new proposals aimed at protecting personally identifiable information that is aggregated by commercial entities may take years to test in the courts or to legislate. This author proposes an educational curriculum and training techniques covering the entire kindergarten through post-graduate spectrum as a starting point for discussion that could help to moderate the amount and types of personal information users place in social media settings without anticipating the consequences. |
