Troopers Presentation
After listening to all the information the troopers presented I never realized how easily we overlook certain aspects of life. I understood everything they were saying because lets face it, its not the first time many of us have heard about the negative factors in all the social networking. I do however think a lot of the times people dont realize how easily their information can circulate to strangers. The internet has always been dangerous but I believe as people get older they realize the bad things that can come of social networking. I think the people who are highly at risk are the younger teens. They are not fully aware of what can happen and they easily put up their information for others to see. I personally keep all my information private and have only used social networking sites to keep in touch with people. I see no point in putting personal information because the people in your life already know those things about you. Younger kids are at a point where they feel the need to post pictures and anything they want because they like the attention. Girls like the attention from guys and guys like the attention from girls. I think the troopers had some valuable information that we can relay to younger siblings. I like how they go around and make presentations to students and kids. The most interesting part of the presentation was when they were discussing how enhanced the police department's technology is. They were explaining how when a boy went missing they could come up with a picture of what he would look like years later. Also, it was interesting that they could find almost any website no matter where it exists. I think its a good thing that police departments take internet usage so seriously. It is definitely necessary and I think some people are naive to how corrupting the internet can be.

I think that people sometimes are just careless. When you see posts of people partying and doing illegal things when they are not of age and they post pictures they want it for attention, or dont think anything of it. I agree with you, that most of us are aware of what could happen but I do feel both of those men reached out to us in a different way. By hearing their personal stories it made it easier to relate to them. Those men do great things to protect young woman.
