Hi Anne,
Thanks for sharing this, although no surprises there.. I would add only one other myth to the list, but it is a big one: contrary to popular belief, it is *not* Facebook (or LinkedIn, or Google+, or whichever) that shares your information -- it is *you* the user. So there is really one single rule to keep in mind to safely navigate on the Internet highway without getting a flat tire or, God forbid, ending up in a head-on collision (figuratively speaking) and that is, be mindful of what you disclose about yourself and others, because the second you ''share'' anything, it is no longer private. Plain and simple.
I'll ''see'' you out there! : )
