Are kids these days not taught the whole "your future employer will check all of your social media accounts before hiring you" thing?

That was one of the things everyone from parents to teachers would tell us, along with other basics like "stuff you post stays on the internet forever", "never meet someone you talked to on the internet", and "never reveal your personal information"

Hell, they would even tell us to be careful with pictures taken outside since the background could reveal enough info for people to pinpoint your location.

I obviously don't observe all of those rules, but I think that people are oversharing way too much

To be fair, many people would probably have a similar reaction if somebody was driving around the city with a megaphone while shouting this to everybody. And that's kinda what social media is, just that you could be heard by the whole world, not just your city, and your words could be heard forever.

But somehow, many people seem to believe that because it's online, it doesn't count.
