1-Venting frustrations online:
Makes a real difference in the world
Makes you feel better
Is protected by the 2nd amendment to the constitution
Generally makes you and everyone else feel worse and can lead to legal trouble
The emotional release of venting frustrations online generally turns to regret, as the outburst is permanently recorded. It pays to read your comment aloud before pressing ‘Send’ to see if it sounds polite and constructive.
2-You should be careful when sharing on the Internet:
To present only the best version of everything that happened
Not to say what you feel or think openly
To be considerate for your audience in how you share
To be the first one to make a comment
Providing very personal details or even exhaustive updates on the details of your daily routine could cause discomfort or wear on relationships with friends and family. Everyone has different ideas about privacy. It may reveal more than you intend or be revealed to more people than you intend.
3-Secretly forwarding an intimate image to a friend:
Is hilarious
Is not ok. It is harmful and illegal
Is ok if you use encryption
Would never result in the image being online
Forwarding intimate images without consent is never ok. It is harmful to the person, to the relationship, increases the risk of the images ending up online and is illegal in Canada.
4-If you are in or see an intimate picture of someone underage you automatically have broken the law and will be arrested.
True
False
Neither you, the person in the image, nor the person who made the image is necessarily guilty of a crime. There is help available. It is possible to seek the support of parents, teachers and even the police.
5-Social networks can cause subtle forms of harm by:
Being a source of irritation because of inappropriate or annoying content, like spam email
Becoming a time-consuming social obligation

All of the above
Feeling obligated to constantly check updates. Constantly expose you to irritating and annoying content and feelings of not being able to control your privacy
