Many young adults
believe that their digital
footprint is responsible
for their lack of
employment.
Is getting rejected by
employers related to their

Work and private life
are now merging
together. It will be
difficult to control your
digital footprint.

Study shows users are
using Facebook less
and Instagram more.
“So employers are
telling me that I
cannot have a life.”
“Doing a
background check
save me from hiring
a ex-convict.”
“I understand not hiring me
because I’m a drug addict, okay.
But don’t hire me because I put
up slutty pictures.”

The accomplishments can include bragging rights, fights, and the murdering of a rival gang member. Internet banging has been deemed the term for the use of social media by gangs to their associations advantage

Hacktivism is the act of hacking, or breaking into a computer system, for a politically or socially motivated purpose. Hacktivists hack web sites and use them as "blackboards" for their statements. Is Hacktivism free speech
or destructive behavior?
