This is a really fascinating topic because it is interesting to see how privacy is viewed across generations. Teens and young adults have been brought up on technology and often their viewpoint on privacy has been molded in part by the use of technology and the internet. I believe that many teens and young adults know how to adjust Facebook privacy settings; not just to the outside world, but, more likely, amongst their friends and groups of friends. I do not believe that young people are always thinking about what the rest of the world sees and how the evidence of their Facebook page may be stored in the internet forever. As these young adults move through life, it will be interesting to see how their participation in social media affects their job prospects and social lives.
