Social Networking

I believe that social networking is one of the most dangerous things someone could get into. There are privacy features ya, but if someone could hack into the pentagon you think a private facebook could stop those predators out there. They are crazy that is why they do what they do. They may be useful to give you information that you may have picked up if you pay attention at school. People also seem to feel that if they say something on the computer, nothing will happen or they feel invincible. This is especially true for teens. They feel tough, though they are cowards using their computers to say what they cannot say face-to-face. It is easy for people to learn about you, but am I wrong when I say people often put fake stuff on these sites (ever heard Brad Paisley's song Online). You learn less than you would in a face-to-face conversation. You can tell so much by body language and voice tone. They may be acting sarcastic but would you know? Just by being around someone you can tell a lot about them whether you mentally realize it or not. Even when we watch what we say on these sites, something always slips. This is why I avoid these time-consuming, pointless sites altogether.
