Facebook has become one of the most popular social media tools with people from all walks of life. In today’s world, anyone who has internet access is able to easily sign up for a Facebook account. Besides a form of communication tool, Facebook allows the user to share personal updates and also to comment on friends’ statuses. However, it seems that Facebook is commonly used everywhere; at home, in public places, offices and even in hospitals.
Due to the huge influence of Facebook on citizens (young and old), there has been growing concerns that there may be possible abuse of the Facebook site. Private information is easily leaked out as information from previously visited web pages can be easily retrieved from the server. This poses a threat to the users, since there is a possible risk of having their personal information known to the other users; regardless of whether both parties are friends on Facebook. As a result, it is difficult to maintain full control of Facebook.
Also, there are those who widely access Facebook using public computers. Possible places include government offices, hospitals and office buildings. Thus, the usage of such computers has been abused for other purposes, especially for surfing the net.
I feel that people should maintain proper usage of public computers. This highly depends on the time and place when they use the computers. It seems inappropriate to use Facebook while working on the job or in hospitals. As sensible citizens, they should use public computers wisely.
