2. 1. Guard your privacy. What people know about you is up to you. 2. Protect your reputation. Self-reflect before you self-reveal. What’s funny or edgy today could cost you tomorrow. 3. Nothing is private online. Anything you say or do can be copied, pasted, and sent to gazillions of people without your permission. 4. Assume everyone is watching. There’s a huge, vast audience out there. If someone is your friend’s friend, they can see everything. 5. Apply the Golden Rule. If you don’t want it done to you, don’t do it to someone else. 6. Choose wisely. Not all content is appropriate. 7. Don't hide. Using anonymity to cloak your actions doesn’t turn you into a trustworthy, responsible human being. 8. Think about what you see. Just because it’s online doesn’t make it true. 9. Be smart, be safe. Not everyone is who they say they are.

3. Never give them your real full name. You don’t know who could be behind it. They may seen friendly, but It could be a grown man and looking for who you really are, and never ever tell them your address and your hometown.

4. Don’t say anything online that is private to you. It would be copied and showed by many many people. What you choose to share is there for all to see if you don't limit who can view your information

5. When they say something to you it might not be true. No one is who they say they are. If they say their age to you it might not really be their age its a made up age. Don’t say anything to them about your name if they keep asking you just get logout.

6. Lies Online research might not be true.Many people are able to go on the website and type many false things on it. Wikipedia is a website were many people go on and right false things on it. There are many website that don’t tell the truth. So be careful online.

7. Internet safety basics Never share names, schools, ages, phone numbers, or addresses. Never open an email from a stranger – it may contain viruses that can harm a computer. Never send pictures to strangers or view pictures that strangers send to them. Keep passwords private (except to parents). Tell a trusted adult if something mean or creepy happens on the Internet.

8. Tips Never give your personal information to anyone online. Do not share your address, social security number, personal family information or any information that appears on your checks, credit or debit cards. Do not give anyone passwords for your computer, websites or programs. Even if your best friend asks for your password to get into a social networking site type it in yourself.. Be careful about what pictures you post on social networking sites like Facebook. Make sure that the picture doesn’t let someone know where you live, work or spend your free time. Make sure everything you post online is appropriate. Never post anything mean about other individuals, your workplace or other places you frequent in the community. If you don’t know if something is OK to post, check with an adult you trust first. A friend of a friend is still a stranger. Don’t assume that just because someone knows a friend of yours that they will respect your privacy. Do not share information with any strangers, even your friend’s friend. Remember that once you post information online there is no way to take it back—it’s there forever.
