Do you think social networks sites are bad and dangerous??

Just depends on how we use it !

Always try not to show too much, it's just virtual, you never know who's interested.. I mean, you never know what kind of person is interested in you on the internet. You never know until something bad happens to you, so just be careful (: just a lil bit more than in your real life :)

both

You got to expect the bad, the good and the ugly, so choose the good and leave the rest behind(:

ANY SITE CAN BE DANGEROUS. EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE CAREFUL ON THE INTERNET.

no great way to expand one mind, meet new people and get to see the world without spending a fourtune wink

No not really, but you need to be careful...

YES!

Not unless you do something really stupid.

You do have to be cautious of what you do on social sites. You need to be particularly careful of what personal information you give out. That really worries me with young people -- they often give way too much personal information. There was a 16 year old girl in Arkansas that was murdered recently. They found her body in a 55 gallon barrel which was buried on a farm - the property belonged to the brother of the man who killed her. It was confirmed that she met the man (who was I think 34 or 36 years old) on a social website. He was a sex offender - and he was passing himself off to her as a 17 year old boy. She left her grandmother's home to go for a walk - apparently to meet up with the "17 year old boy" - and was never seen alive again. Adults and young people can be drawn in to scams on social websites easily if they aren't careful.

Only if misused.

It can be if your not careful..

NO--THEY CAN BE--LIKE ANYTHING ELSE; BUT NO.

Only if you don't take precautions

I wouldnt say their bad and dangerous..but you should definately be careful...

They can be.

<------- As long as you dont add this individual to your friends list....you will be ok

no way ... rather its best to express one self and exhibit perception which one does not find to tell or ask any one . Many times we get corrected by reading opinions of others . Social sites have also minimized the loneliness as computer has become the fast friend the community on social site is their family who care and respond to resolve solutions . Even Birth day celebration is nice though its on net ?

Nah

Not anymore dangerous than going out in public, in fact, social networks are probably safer (since you are only just chatting with people online) compared to all the crime and "incidents" now days you hear about on the news.

If you are not careful yes:)

Depends on the user and what it's used for. I think in the right settings it is a great way to stay in touch with people!

some of them can be

Do you think speeding is bad

No. I do know of some people who don't use any privacy protections and then discuss details of their lives. These people should not be surprised if they have a problem.

Facebook keeps dumbing it down for people who don't know how to use privacy protections, which is pretty annoying.

They take common sense. Anything can be bad or dangerous, well, many things.

Potentially

"Nothing is good or bad but thinking makes it so." Polonius to Laertes in "Hamlet"...I think.

nah , i actually like those sites

They can be but don't have to be.

boring. just like this one.

Generally I think they're just stupid and a waste of time.

depends the way u are using

it can be if some people pose as someone they are not.

I do not think they are anymore dangerous then walking down the street, signing on to the internet or any other thing we do on daily basis. I think that young people have a greater chance of being harmed on a social network by people posing as something they are not.

For example I am showing a picture of an old guy and show my age as 72. When in fact I could be a 21 year old stud looking to meet older women. You never know.

Let me know if that's true. :)

No, I am really 72, and married for 37 years.

Good man. :)

I think they are bad for the computer and the users bank balance......They are full of spammers, scammers and the just downright criminal.
