My Digital Footprint

For digital literacy we were told to write a few paragraphs on our digital footprint, and how it affects us, others, and our future. To begin, when I searched my name in google, I didn’t expect that I have any photos in google. As I predict, I didn’t have any photos in google. I am not active a lot in social medias and all of my accounts are private, so there are few selected people who can see my photos. Because I didn’t have any photos in google, it probably won’t have any impact until now on my future, my job or even my university.

There are different strategies that people can use to keep their digital footprint appropriate and safe. They can begin with having few social media accounts. Also, it is better for them to make it private and just allow selected people such as their family and their friends see their photos. Moreover, they should be aware about what they share. Every time that they post a photo, they should think what if another person and not their friends be able to see it; then they post the photo if they want. Also, the things that they post online can be seen by their family and friends, and if they post something inappropriate, the people who care about them might feel a different way about them after it.
