Your personal information is safest when you don’t share it on social media. Social media will always be a trade-off between connection and protection. The more you share on social media, the more information about your life can be stolen. It’s hard to strike a balance. But there are three areas where you can make small changes to protect your personal information on social media: sharing, security, and surroundings. This online class will be held on Zoom.
