Watch what you upload to Facebook
You may find yourself in jail
To post to Twitter and Facebook, is a part of everyday life for most of us, however, more than half of the users aware that they may violate laws that could lead to prison sentences.
A study conducted by an online consulting firm,
the knowthenet.org.uk, found an alarming high number of young people who had no idea of what surfing could be a violation of copyright or privacy, defamation or comments even inciting unrest.
The investigation comes after 4 years imprisonment for two people, after trying to incite riots from Facebook this summer. The Jordan Blackshaw and Perry Sutcliffe-Keenan, from Cheshire, received the sentence, although I never took any kind of agitation.
The survey, which involved 2,000 young people aged 14 to 21, also found that 67% download material on the internet such as pictures and lyrics from songs, but on the other protected by copyright laws.
When you heard about that in many cases it is illegal to download a video from a concert on YouTube, for example, many said they had never consider something so when filming concerts and then uploads the internet.
