This week I helped my group be doing preliminary research as to how privacy issues effect the users of facebook. I also helped in the wrtiing of the proposal memo as well as the time line memo. I am still researching the topic but have foucused my efforts to finding information about the use of facebook by businesses and the legal and ethical issues that this practice presents.

Topic Perposal: Facebook and privacy

With the creation of Facebook personal information could be easily spread over the internet. While there are settings to protect your personal information there is an ever increasing risk that people could access your personal information. This invasion of privacy could be from a potential employer or a "Facebook stalker". This risk is a huge problem and could lead to bigger problems in the future. Employers are now able to screen potential employee’s Facebook pages and see if there are any discriminative photos or other information.
