Talk:Emily Wogaman

Comment from Emily Dershowitz: Emily, I found your piece so interesting! I went through a similar thought process that you mentioned in the beginning of your piece about how Emily is such a common name, so I was just as excited as you to find that results for our names came up on Google! I thought it was really interesting how you searched by places that you’ve lived in the past and it was so interesting how Google was able to, in a way, remember things for you (like the mural and spelling bee). I was shocked to see that there is a website that shared such personal information like your name and address. I think one thing you could consider adding is more information about the site because that was definitely an intriguing find. Maybe what their privacy policy is or if there’s a way to find out where they’re getting the information from? I also really enjoyed your point about how it might not be ethical for so much information about minors to be displayed online without their permission as it’s something I never really considered and definitely a scary concept. Great job!
