Internet Privacy

Little do we know the internet like we know it is stealing all our information. We trust sites like Facebook and give all of our information but do we actually know where our information is going. We see advertisements for items we have been texting about or even just talking about and we wonder how the internet got this information. It is said that the internet is an electronic tattoo.  There is a company online called face.com that has millions of peoples faces recognized from social media and the internet. This company was taken over by Facebook. Once something is posted on the internet its never gone even if it is "deleted" The internet is such a corrupt place that takes your personal information and does whatever it can with it. With features like face id and touch id our phones store our finger print and facial recognition and we have no idea where its going.  We also type our credit card numbers into different online stores everyday. Theres always an option to have your credit card information saved on the website. That means your computer and that stores has your card on file and can do whatever they want with it. Another thing that we would never know is that cell towers have cell tower dumps where it shows who has been using one or more cell tower at a time. There are so many times where we don't realize how the internet can be a not so safe place. We need to be cautious about what we want to post and publish online.
