This is not a first time thing. I beleive it's occuring quite a lot around schools through out the nation and finally a case has been discovered. An article by Steve Kolowich published in "The Chronilce of Higher Education" website, talks about a Calvin College student that has been suspended from school due to a lewd Facebook message he posted about his ex-girlfriend. This means that he not only commited a crime, but also violated the school's policy.
People, this is very delicate! I know there are people that are experts at hacking systems, but you have to protect your privacy. What I mean by this, is that you have to keep your password to yourself and share it to noone, even the closest person to you, it could be your best friend, your girlfriend or boyfriend and even your parents, what is private, should remain private.
The article states that the student, Mr. Harris, claimed that his girlfriend was the one that logged onto his account becasue she knew his password and supposely posted the message. Town police officers find this, "very unconvinced" Kolowich quotes.
Why does Mr. Harris girlfriend have his Facebook password? Did she steal it or did she get it from him, we don't know this, however the most obvious thing would be to think that the password was given out due to the fact that within the relationship things were very confidential. How confidential can it get though? From my point of view, your password is like you going to the toilette and locking the door because nobody else wants to see your private parts and what you do in there. Your own privacy is very delicate and people need to start realizing that on-line realms are somehow private for you to use, but can also in a way harm your reputation.
