With technology changing every day and new ways to improve how people communicate, sometimes this changes might bring some hazards to our privacy. Recently I discover that there is going to be a new website that enables you to identify any person with only their picture, a face recognition search engine. Imagine what could be done with this can of new invention. I think that this is more that just a privacy issue, it could be dangerous for anybody!In addition, I think that we should take some extreme measures on how we carry ourselves online. We can try to make our profiles private so that only our friends can see our personal information and pictures. Furthermore, the government could establish some policies in order to put some restrictions on these sites, that way it could be a little safer for everyone.

I think you are right that we do need to take extreme measures to keep ourselves safe on the internet and I do think the government should put more restrictions on these sites. Your picture says it all to me that our image is almost like a finger print and thats so true.
