Having been a user on Twitter for over a year now, I’ve seen much of what goes on between people and how people act.  Recently, there was a small scandal within a portion of Twitter-users: it was found out that a 45-year-old woman had been posing as a 17-year-old girl for a very long amount of time, and had thousands of people who both looked up to her, had spent much time conversing with her, and many of them cared for her.  This one person fooled thousands of people, and hurt them by what she did.  You might wonder how it’s possible for her to have done this. The answer?  The Internet.  Anyone can become anyone they want to become, and obviously it can last for a very long time.  There were people who got close enough to her that they texted her and talked with her on the phone.  These people were hurt, simply by her pretending to be someone she wasn’t.  The reason for me bringing this up is simple: you, and your family and friends, are never safe on the Internet.
