Social Media and Privacy

Social media and privacy are contradicting things in my opinion. The second you post anything on a social media website, it is out there forever. There is however a huge difference between you posting something yourself for others to see and someone else posting something of you without your consent. These different cases of rape related photos and videos being posted to Facebook is absurd. For one, who in their right minds would videotape someone being violated and even worse post to Facebook for the world to see. The only reason anyone should ever be taking a video is so that they can take it to authorities for legal matters. I cannot seem to find any positives from doing such a thing. I do think if the videotapers/cameramen took the evidence to police privately then maybe it would be a good thing, but I don't think its ever a good idea to post it publicly for all to see. Clearly nothing good comes from it, only pain and suffering from the victims like the girl who's naked body was shown on Facebook. All her classmates made fun of her daily to the point of suicide. Overall, I do not believe there are any positive effects of posting such horrible incidents on any social media websites.
