Several days ago i read a news. It`s about facebook`s problem. The news said many people who used facebook have already leaked their names, personal information or even their friends names and information to internet advertising companies or other internet-based corporations. Many people said that even if they set up their files with the most strict privacy entrance, they still received unwelcoming emails or even telephones wiht computer voice aiming to promote commercials.
On the other hands, this might rise another problem in organizational behaviour. Since people put their information on line, and they keep diary or write articles to express their feelings or record activities, managers from their own company may get through to their “writings” and to see what this person is really look like. So sometimes troubles come if someone says something bad about their company, complaints, rummors, or even says what`s going on in the company, it`s something organizational managers are not expected to see.
Actually more than 50% people reported that they have the problem with facebook because they worry about their safety of personal information. A spokeman from facebook says facebook team have already taken measures to improve this problem but it`s just a matter of time. In my personal opinion, it`s hard to get this problem solved unless you don`t leave anything personal on the internet.
