Case study
Teacher K regularly uses a social networking site to socialise on a personal level with friends. Teacher K attends a ‘hooker and ho’
themed fancy dress party. Teacher K’s costume is awarded the best dressed prize. Teacher K has restricted her privacy settings so that
‘only friends’ can access her profile page. She uploads a photograph of her dressed in her prize winning costume while drinking from the prize winning magnum of champagne and uses this as her profile picture.
