Today I decided to review and respond to Andrea’s blog post 2!

I really liked your post, especially how you keep your personal and professional online identities separate. It’s smart that you’re careful with your privacy on platforms like Instagram and Snapchat while maintaining a more polished and professional profile on LinkedIn. Being mindful of your privacy settings and what you share is so important, especially since employers often look at social media. It’s a great way to protect your personal life while still showcasing a professional image.

Your take on the Digital Visitor and Resident idea was interesting too. I can totally relate to how you’re a digital resident on platforms like YouTube and Instagram, where you interact regularly, but more of a visitor on functional sites like banking platforms. It’s cool to think about how this might change as you get deeper into professional networks.

Lastly, your thoughts on privacy, surveillance, and digital footprint are spot on. Things like using strong passwords and enabling two-factor authentication are simple but crucial steps to protect your online presence. Overall, your post really emphasized how important it is to carefully manage both personal and professional digital identities! Good job!
