Talk:Jacey Workum

Emily Fischer's Comment

I really enjoyed reading this! You have a very unique voice in your writing, and I thought the whole thing flowed very well. I really liked how you compared the version of you represented by your social media profiles to the information you were able to find through a Google search. I also really liked the organization of this article-- the headers made sense and were coherent. Given your unique name, it is a bit surprising that you were not able to find much information about yourself online, especially via the data broker report. However, I think it's important to note that you actually ended up finding more information than a lot of people (myself included). For example, a Google search of my own name rendered zero pictures of myself, but you were able to find several. I would have liked to have read more analysis about your findings. You briefly discuss how this exercise made you question the idea of identity, and I think that would be a great topic to further explore! Or you could talk more about how the fact that your address and phone number are publicly available online disturbs your privacy. You could also tie the readings into these ideas! That being said, again, I really enjoyed this post. Great job!
