I also found inaccurate information but overall what bothered me the most was that I did not have the authority to choose what was available to others. I think you did a great job explaining your process for searching for information on yourself - how "curiosity got the best of you" and the steps you took as well as connection to the readings. I would recommend that you take that approach to a new level by also applying some sort of creative flare to your page rather than just explaining the facts and what you found. | '''Allyson Rosenzweig''' Brennan - I really enjoyed reading this as your relationship with social media and the online world differs immensely from my experiences.

Allyson Rosenzweig Brennan - I really enjoyed reading this as your relationship with social media and the online world differs immensely from my experiences. I am a very active Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat user and tend to ignore the privacy concerns when online. However, it seems that you act quite the opposite with the online world. What interested me most was that although our actions online are very different, we were able to find similar information and view our findings in a similar way. With the information I found on myself, I was also not too upset that it was there but was more upset that it felt out of my control. I also found inaccurate information but overall what bothered me the most was that I did not have the authority to choose what was available to others. I think you did a great job explaining your process for searching for information on yourself - how "curiosity got the best of you" and the steps you took as well as connection to the readings. I would recommend that you take that approach to a new level by also applying some sort of creative flare to your page rather than just explaining the facts and what you found.
Suzanna Duba's comment:
Hi Brennan - interesting page, I liked that it read as a story. You also used headers & photos well to break up the text, and they were designed well to make this resemble a Wikipedia page. I thought it was interesting that you had neither Googled yourself before, nor that although you made a Facebook, you hadn't used it much. I think your minimal attention to social media and online life is interesting, particularly in our generation. Not a bad thing!
I liked your comment on the height and weight data and, specifically, the fact that no one ever warned or asked you if they could publish, and in today's age post to the internet, that information.
I also thought your analysis in the section under 'Data Brokers' about looking into family connections was interesting, and could be developed further. You could explain how and why this is a violation of privacy, and whether or not you agree with being able to link such things, or form an identity of someone based off that of another person.
And the beginning half was composed pretty well, but it felt like you could edit the second half of your writing a bit more for the next draft.
