A large part of it is done by complete strangers, who can get the location information that is turned on by default for most smartphones. Do you geotag the pictures on your social media profiles? Youāre making it easy for cyberstalkers. #2 Social profiling Social profiling means assessing a person based on their interaction and influence on social media. An estimated 43% of employers have decided not hire someone based on information found online. 40% of employers use social media to screen candidates, including their social conduct. Watch out what youāre sharing publicly. #3 Third-party information sharing This is where the tracking comes in. When you visit a website, you get cookies. We are talking about digital trackers that can identify your behaviour patterns online. Do you see ads for something you have just been looking at online? Thatās your cookie. #4 Warrantless searches Any person who willingly makes information public is not protected by the Fourth Amendment in the US. That means accessing that information requires no warrant. The NSA is known to have worked with Facebook, Google and others to get usersā email content, search history, live chats and file transfers. So think twice before posting.
