WHAT COULD YOU DO WHEN USING SNS?

We shall propose several courses of action to counter the illegal/unethical use of the social networking sites. We shall categorize these into social and individual.

SOCIAL
- Schools can organize talks to gain awareness
- SNS can introduce the "child-lock", "report abuse" facilities
- Parents can spend more time with children, to avoid the children from getting too reliant on the Internet
- More law can be enforced towards online security, to prevent potential hazards arising from the use of SNS

INDIVIDUAL
- Abide by the terms and conditions set by the various SNS
- Be aware of exposing your personal information; that might get "scooped" by unlawful people
- Card details' should NEVER be made known to others online
