People "have walked smack" in social networks
Apparently, at visitors of popular social networks now there comes a heavy hang-over after intoxication easy possibility to add in friends of the former schoolmates, fellow workers, lovers and so forth. It has shown the research spent by British company Norton.
1004 British have taken part in sociological poll is more senior 18 years. It was found out that there is more than half of users are so frightened that simply dream to remove all information on which they have so carelessly placed on the Internet.

However, hardly those who test a regret about the rashness on the Internet, is universal have faced negative consequences, — the professor adds. — basically if someone needs to learn something about the person, it will collect data and without . Simply information society hasn't enough ripened truly to estimate consequences of the activity on the Internet. It is necessary to ascertain more likely that at users the feeling of suspiciousness develops
