Social Network privacy?
If you think calling anyone an a**hole and publicizing it over your social networking accounts was cool, well then think again. Swearing on individuals on your twitter, orkut, facebook or any other social net sites is not safe or rather not permitted.
Under the Information Technology Act 2000, your status can be used as electronic document evidence against you. Not many people are aware about it, but yeah! Such type of a law does exist.
All this time I thought social nets were The Internet’s Vodka and Rum. It would help you get out all the rage by being an anonymous body. It would also help individuals who fumble on face to face verbal attacks. It would let you voice out your opinion while not caring what the rest of the world says about it. But with this law coming out of dormancy I see some of the so called “net-speakers” voices being crushed.
Is it fare? Do we have to think twice before keying in a sentence? I feel it is a 50-50 case. One needs to have a good taste for words by keeping out the foul ones. But then sometimes the situation does demand some tough words. Well, this is not in regards to swearing upon your friends for fun but otherwise, like blogging for instance.
All those people who are a part of communities, pages, groups like I HATE Mr.XYZ or Mr. ABC s**ks beware! Also to all those who might have been tweeting around about their worst adversities at work or triggering off any anti-social campaigns!
Keep your accounts clean and enjoy networking! 🙂
