My digital footprint

Writing: my digital footprint A digital footprint is a track you leave when you go online. I think it’s negative because other people you don’t know can see where you go in your privacy, but it’s positive if you want to search things you had searched before. Everybody has a digital footprint. When I go online, I express myself with care, remembering everything online is permanent and public. I protect my privacy having different difficult passwords and thinking after going to different websites or after posting a photo. I protect other people privacy asking before tagging or sharing and not sending photos of other persons. A negative digital footprint is when you search bad things and other people can tell you off, but a good digital footprint is when you need to search things you had searched before. I googled my name and I didn’t find anything. I think this is good because other people can’t find me if I don’t want to. I think this too because I’m good saving my informa

I think you are safe online if you know which pictures are good for post and which not, and I think these too if you know in which pages you can search information and in which not. But if you don’t control yourself, surfing internet it will be very dangerous because other people you don’t know can view you in your intimacy. It will be risky too if you go to illegal websites, because provably there was a virus, and your computer provably gets damage. It’s perilous surfing internet because there’re hackers connected in the server, and they can enter in your privacy things and view all of your things posted in the network without your consent. It’s dangerous go online too because if you open a credit card, these hackers can steal money from your savings. If you surf in the network, it’s imp
