After reading over the articles and reflecting on my beliefs about internet safety I have come to the conclusion that I am a combination of 2 of the areas, Middle of the Road and Privacy Elite. I strongly believe in the idea that if you don't want people to know something about you than you shouldn't post it online, even if it is so only a few people can see. You never know what people will do with the information that you put out there. I keep my accounts private and limit my friends to people that I actually know and would associate with daily if I actually was able to see them all. I am very aware of what I am posting and only post things that I wouldn't mind other people seeing. In that way I am more in the Privacy Elite section, I try to keep the "Can I Use Your Location" setting set to off on my apps unless I need it for a specific instance.
I think Privacy is something we each need to look at on a personal level to see how what we are doing affects our lives and if we need to change anything.
