Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest - Are You Sharing Too Much Online? [INFOGRAPHIC]

Are you sharing too much online?

Social media has empowered users to connect with friends and family, demand better products and customer service from brands and change the world, but as we become more comfortable with these tools we are exponentially relaxing any initial concerns we might have had with security.
