Nate Pond - Online Profile

When I looked up my phone number, it came up with my home town and the cell phone carrier I use. The other searches didn’t yield too many results. When I searched for Nate Pond facebook, my facebook was the 5th result. It took you to my private facebook where you couldn’t see anything but my profile picture and cover photo. When searching for my twitter you are able to find it as the first result, and since my twitter is not private, you are able to see all the cute pictures of puppies I always retweet.
When I googled “Nate Pond” my twitter was the first thing to popup along with a picture of my dad and I at a badger basketball game. Googling my number and email resulted in no information that came back to me. When I looked up my full name with my hometown, my high school alumni website pops up.

This is just a good reminder that even though you may have some private social media, your information is still easily accessible to anyone through various other websites. It goes to show you can’t be too careful.
