Positive Digital Footprint Example: Control of Identity
I am using control of identity on my digital footprint as I am making sure there is no information about me at all on the internet. This can be both positive or negative but I believe the pros outweigh the cons. While I let anybody on Instagram follow me and have my real name in my profile, I don’t post anything on my profile so that nobody anonymous knows how I look or learns anything else about me.
How might your existing digital footprint affect your job and career prospects and post-secondary school applications?
My digital footprint would have no effect on my job and career prospects or my post secondary school applications as it is very minuscule. If one were to google my name, there would be no results relating to me. If one were to look for my social media, they would find that I mainly use Instagram and even then, I have no posts and the only information disclosed would be my name. When it comes to leaving comments on posts, I always consider the possibility of somebody I am close to coming across it so I make sure I don’t comment the wrong things.
