A Privacy Settings Checklist

In the first row, list the top four social-media sites or apps you use most often. Then, for each type of
personal information in the list, decide who you would want to have see that information on each site,
and enter it in the grid. (If a category isn’t relevant for a particular app/site, put an X in the box.)
Next, visit http://teachingprivacy.icsi.berkeley.edu/prevention to find out how to check your privacy
settings on each of the apps/sites. Do your settings match what you said on the checklist? When you’ve
