After Reading the articles it gave me a better perspective of what my peers may have on the internet. I was surprise to learn that adults/parents were fearfully concerned about data that is collected from our use of the internet for commercial purposes. Since adult/parents are usually prideful of possessing a facebook(or any social media) to keep track of their teens or family members. Or playing the mini games offered by the website, even though facebook is the king of information snaring. It just something that almost doesn't make sense to me.
Though I agree that teens would be more concerned about the social aspect. Since most of them grew up in this technological age and know how to mange the data that social networks collect. So the data collecting is second nature. So logically society would be there next/main concern. Though having the links to disable old apps and parts of the account is handy. Usually you have to jump through hoops to get to it on certain sites.
I wish we the articles had more information on net neutrality. Since its been a big issue the last few years.
I appreciate your point of view. I think our generation is really the still learning how to manage social media. Hopefully by the time we have our own kids, net neutrality will be all figured out! :)
