How easily do you trust people on the internet?

Hm I need to think about that. If you want you can have my socials or number to ask again later.

Don't give your number out, moron. Unless, you can trust people, and only do it on pm only.

Not really. I private all social media but I don't even use them very often except Discord. I wouldn't really trust anyone too much unless I've met them.

The Internet is the internet, even if accounts have been made "private" your account and information is still public information to data companies. Your on Instagram, Facebook can read all your DMs and see all your posts and they will forward it to data companies and then forward that data onto whoever is willing to pay for that data. Discord is also pretty bad since once again they can read all your messages and their "don't sell data" can be very easily bypassed.

I had a online friend for like 4 years in the US and I met them in real life when I was over there.
It went well; like they were genuine and we had a great time together.
But it's mad to think that actually happened.

Personally, I think I trust people too easily (in real life and online) smh. Like I've given my Instagram and my number out to people on TSR (for work related reasons lol), but looking back I think that was a stupid idea and I really shouldn't have done that. 🤦*♀️

Psychological research showsthat you are more likely to be attached or trust someone online way quicker than in real life , this is because of anonymity and an absence of “gates” . Gates like , physical appearance, shyness so your not wrong also your more likely to fall in love quicker online too

I know anything I do on the Internet can be accessed by the data companies. But the type of people I'm talking about are just the general people using the application.

You're not alone.
I had to change my number 3 times and now my 4th one. I wanted to change that too but then I can't always annoy my professors by changing my numbers. So, I decided to block away numbers. The list is big.
My Instagram was with many but then I deleted all my social accounts and created new ones last year and I've limited my interactions.

The amount of my personal info I gave to strangers makes me scared to live. Lol!
Honestly, attending online sessions is very difficult cuz on the back of my head I have this thought someone might recognise you and disclose everything.

Anyways, growing up I'm not worried anymore.

Funny fact, when someone reminds me of something that was actually a secret and I regret disclosing it, I just pretend I don't remember it. It worked a lot!!!

I could relate myself bit by bit in yours.

Take Care!

I don’t trust people a lot on the internet, especially because i know of people who made mistakes and then someone else would screenshot it, post it on their snap and ridicule them for it. Or even when people expose others private pictures. I get that they shouldn’t have done those things in the first place but people don’t need to be exposed about every mistake that they make.

Innit!!
lmao!
My aunt taught me to do that!
You're right... our past teaches us!
I do the same now. I've 2 different numbers and 2 emails.


So your fears vanished?
I hope you're not leaving TSR now?
