  3. The articles were about companies getting paid to track our privacies, hacking, Facebook arguments, and the government's way of security. It isn't my business that people today post their privacy on the Internet because a lot of people want the world to know what they are doing in their hometown so their business can become popular to the society. All the accounts that I signed up for should block anybody that wants to get information out of me for money because they do not need to know what I do at home or at any other place. What I learned in these articles is that everything you post on Facebook or Twitter, is your privacy, even if it doesn't contains personal information, it matters.
