36、r Sheet 2.Are Teenagers Really Careless About Online Privacy?A They share, like, everything. How they feel about a song, their maths homework, life (it sucks). Where theyll be next; who theyre with now. Photos, of themselves and others, doing stuff they quite probably shouldnt be. Theyre the digital
37、 natives, fresh-minted citizens of a humming online world. Theyve grown upare still growing upwith texting, Facebook, Line, Snapchat. Theyre the young, and they couldnt care less about privacy. At least, thats the assumption. But amid a rash of revelations about government surveillance (监视), it seem
38、s its wrong. Young people do care, a lot, about privacyjust not the kind of privacy that exercises their parents.B True, young people post information about themselves online that horrifies their elders. There remains “a basic lack of awareness“ about “the potential longer-term impact of information
39、 leaks“, says Andy Phippen, professor of social responsibility in information technology at Plymouth University. “Many younger people just dont think in terms of their future employability, of identity theft, of legal problems if theyre being provocative. Not to mention straightforward reputational
40、issues.“ (Paris Brown, Phippen adds, “clearly never thought what she tweeted when she was 14“ might one day stop her being Britains first youth police commissioner.)C Far more should be done in schools to teach children to be more concerned about the future impact of their online profile and reputat
41、ion, Phippen argues. But the fact that they make mistakes does not mean they dont care about privacy. In fact, a report in May by the Pew Internet and the American Life Project found teenagers cared enough about online security for 60% to set their Facebook profiles to “private“ and to judge privacy
42、 settings “not difficult at all“ to manage. A similar number said they routinely delete past posts, block people, and post comments only particular viewerstypically, close friendswould understand. “You have to think about what privacy means,“ says Danah Boyd, a leading youth and social media researc
43、her. “What matters to them is social privacy: its about how to control a social situation, which is something very different from controlling information.“D The Pew report found that only 9% of teens were “very“ concerned about third parties like companies or government agencies accessing their pers
44、onal informationcompared with nearly half of their parents. Most young people have precious little idea of how much data social networking sites are collecting on thembut they tend, on the whole, to be quite relaxed about the idea, particularly if it comes as a trade-off for free use of the service.
45、E Teens, Boyd says, tend to be concerned not by unknown third parties accessing data about them, but by “things that might be seen by the people who have power over them: parents, teachers, college admissions officers. The concern is more about your mother looking at your Facebook profile than gover
46、nment agencies or advertisers using data youve shared.“F Young people are concerned, in other words, about getting into trouble. But that concern is every bit as real. So teens now manage their online security with “a whole set of strategies“, says Boyd. Many dont tell the truth online: according to the Pew Internet study, 26% of teen social media users say they post fake information like a false name, age or location. Ot
