Guest guest Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 Hi Colleagues, Family and Friends, We can never be too careful about having solid passwords that computer hacker programs can't easily decode OR about how much of our info gets shared with social networking. Some valuable info here. Please do take a moment to read; log in; and protect yourself and all those you communicate with! Thanks! Jan Patenaude LinkedIn and Facebook can use your picture, your name and your posts in their ads. Unless you are OK with that, you need to change your privacy settings in each social media to protect your image, name aka brand, posts, likes. Your picture, name, posts, likes serve as advertising for a third party using your public LinkedIn or Facebook information. Make sense? LinkedIn: 1. Log into LinkedIn. 2. From your home screen, click drop down box next to your name in upper right corner and click settings. 3. Click Account in the middle of the page 4. Click manage social advertising 5.
