Nowadays, private information is increasingly published online. Although it might have some advantages, in my opinion, it can cause more disadvantages.
Admittedly, the online sphere, social media specifically, plays a major role in our modern life. This can lead to beneficial opportunities if using the platforms in effective ways. By publishing posts about your daily life in social media and attracting people who can be interested in it, those people, who are called bloggers, can earn a significant amount of money which sometimes can reach millions of dollars. Moreover, by posting something individuals can save these moments and then have access to this after many years with little possibility of losing these core memories. For example, there are thousands of people on Youtube or Instagram who basically post videos and memories about their personal livfes, but are gaining popularity and therefore after several years haveing a better life than they used to.
Nevertheless, despite a comparatively easy way of earning money, the wrong usage of personal information available worldwide can be the cause of vital consequences. Firstly, in modern life there are a lot of hackers who can hack profiles and get secret passwords, personal data and afterwards get access to the bank accounts or other private resources. One more drawback is the absence of personal space if any kind of locational information is leaked. This includes being chased on the streets, being recognized, and changing places of living due to constant observation. For instance, one famous blogger accidentally showed a little area where she was living and the next day she got robbed.
In conclusion, safety far outweighs any of the minor benefits that could result from getting famous and easy earning.
