Your digital footprint is important for your future because it might risk or entire life. A digital footprint is like a footprint that can never disappear. In some cases It could affect your education, your job and the friends you have. The hard thing is it can never disappear it will always be there even if you delete something like a post, there will always be someway to find it. In conclusion always take care of your digital footprint.
2. When using the internet, one of the ways to keep your footprint safe and appropriate is making sure what you are sending and searching is safe like when you are sending something on social media you want to make sure if anyone would be offended same with when you are searching something online, if you were to show a certain website would someone be offended if they saw the website. Next is checking a website to see if it is trustworthy. You don`t want someone to steal stuff from you. There are many ways that you can check that a website is trustworthy, but one way that you can check if a website is safe is if you can only go on a website if you give them your personal information. Lastly, If it is illegal, it can affect you life if your employer sees that you have done something illegal they might not give you the job. Always be careful on the internet.
3. I learned that what I do can affects my entire life and can take away what I can do in my future. I would wish everyone knew about what they do online could end up destroying there entire lives. I would tell everybody that the internet is powerful, but it is so powerful that it could affect your entire life.
