Digital Notes

The internet has come a long way. Taking a look at it for the past decade.
Here is an important point to keep in mind, when you post ANYTHING online. Even though you might delete it, however it gets archived!

Here is a quote from CNET:
"... The internet is forever

If you sear one rule into your brain going into 2020, make it this: Everything you post online can come back to haunt you, even years later. You might think your comment was ironic, hilarious or edgy. You may have intended it as satire or social commentary. It may have just been a moment of misjudgment you expect to blow over.

But your online record is part of your permanent record, and you aren't guaranteed the benefit of the doubt, even if you think you deserve it."
