Think Before You Post

By: Adam Dublin


Jessica Logan,an 18 year old senior from Sycamore High school sent nudes to her boyfriend,but the photos were sent to hundreds of teenagers in at least seven Cincinnati area schools after they broke up.The bullying continued throughout  all types of social media such as myspace facebook and text messaging. She then committed suicide by hanging herself after attending the funeral of another kid who had recently committed suicide.



Lack of control is theme of the story because as soon as she sended those nude explicit pictures to her boyfriend she had no control over what he did with them,whether or not he sent them to others or anything else she had no control over what he could or would do with those images.She should have thought more deeply about who she sent her personal photos to or who she could trust with those photos.

Think Before You post: Story of Amanda Todd

Think Before You post: Story of Amanda Todd

Amanda was on a meeting new people webcam website, and she was on there she met this guy. This guy convinced Amanda to pull her chest out on the webcam, and i'm guess he screenshotted it. The guy  kept making profiles on facebook that technically kept showing her chest and having everybody see it when every time she switched to a new school he would go under cover and make a new profile and add her as a friend. Then she put a video on youtube talking saying how she was getting bullied and blackmailed.  A little after a month after posting the video, Amanda hung herself in her home.

  • Immediacy- the way that immediacy plays into this  story is she just showed her chest to the guy that she didn’t know. Amanda knows she shouldn't had did it, but she did it anyways impulsively. Amanda  just did it because he was pressuring her to do, so she just hurried and did it.

  • Permanence- the way that this story shows permanence is when she posted the video which is was 4 years ago, and even though she died it’s still up there. That shows how if you put something on the internet it’s going to be permanent.

  • Lack Of Control- When Amanda showed the man her chest he probably screenshotted it, and Amanda had no control over where that picture went even though she didn’t know it was up there. Amanda still had no control over it when she died  and that's just a perfect example of lack of control she had no control over who had the picture or even where that picture went.  

The effects of this situation with Amanda is that she showed her chest to a stranger on a webcam, and ended up getting bullied for showing her chest. My advice would just be Amanda should've never gotten on that website if she never would've got on the website with strangers then none of this would've never happened. My point is think before you just do something impulsively.

Jumping to conclusions

Posted by Jade Aubrey in Technology- Freshmen · Hertz · a2 on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 8:03 pm

Amy Joyner Francis was posting things on instagram and one of her classmates Trinity Carr saw her posts and thought she was talking about her so trinity got upset and she told her friends that amy posted something about her and they planned to jump her the next day of school they told her to wear sneakers they were posting on instagram telling her stuff and what to wear amy talked to her friends about the situation they told her to be careful she was trying to defuse the situation by talking to trinity about it but when she went to the bathroom they followed her and jumped her in the bathroom and they killed her in girls bathroom. After she died they were saying she was happy that they killed her on instagram and they should have left the situation alone knowing people were going to get mad about what she did and say mean things to them I feel like they blew it out of proportion they could have just left it alone instead of feeding into it and jumping her

2 racist girls

Posted by Catherine Martinez in Technology- Freshmen · Hertz · a2 on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 6:53 pm

In 2012, after 2 minors, from Gainesville High school posted a racist rant video talking about black people, they kept getting death threats. A thing that one of the girls mentioned was ” You can understand what we are saying, our accents, we use actual words. Black people don’t.” They also mentioned that there is a difference between black people and “niggers.” That meaning that these two girls do not tolerate “niggers”, That they are not educated, keep having babies, can’t talk right, can’t get jobs, getting their welfare checks, food stamps, etc. And “black people” are educated, can talk right, etc. That video impacted them pretty bad because for one, they got kicked out of their own school, got death threats, one of the girls got depressed, the other girl’s mother said their lives changed completely and had to publicly apologize for their actions. After that the school wore orange, the color of racial tolerance, that week as a sign of solidarity.

Adrien Broner Suicidal Threat's

Posted by Severiano Coffy in Technology- Freshmen · Hertz · a2 on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 6:18 pm

About 3 weeks ago Adrien Broner made the worst mistake of his life. He decided to hop on social media and started saying he was going to kill himself. Now people will look at him different because of that. Even though he deleted it it’s always going to be remembered. I know that people screenshoted it. He shouldn’t have went on instagram and snapchat telling people what he was going to do. With his fan base people looked at it immediately and it was all over tv.  So now he has to deal with that because the pictures will always be around and all the interview clips are still going to be posted somewhere. Also the reason he was going to “kill himself” was over something so dumb

'It was a stupid mistake': Cop's Snapchat photo with racial slur costs her 2 jobs

Posted by Shneider Bouillon in Technology- Freshmen · Hertz · a2 on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 2:11 pm

Image result for 'It was a stupid mistake': Cop's Snapchat photo with racial slur costs her 2 jobs

A local Philadelphia police woman was fired for posting racial slur on social media. She was then confronted and she apologized saying she's sorry and that offending people where not her intentions. Then what were her intention for posting something she very well knew she wasn't suppose to? Due to this she is now known as a racist amongst her community and to everyone who saw this. Maybe she wanted to send it to a couple of friends that wouldn't have a problem with it or thought it was funny, because of lack of control this spread worldwide from the local Philadelphia news to different states, eventually by people sharing it, to different countries.

The Story of Justine Sacco

Posted by Ronald Atkins in Technology- Freshmen · Hertz · a2 on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 10:48 am

There are a lot of occurring internet controversy when it come to posting on social media, especially when in the hands of teenagers. Due to the lack of control when posting, teenagers tend to post offensive self-opinions and highly inappropriate content that goes beyond restrictive internet policies.  However, it is not only teenagers posting irresponsibly. Sometimes even adults go past restricted limitations of internet usage.


In the story of women named Justine Sacco who is thirty years old, Justine herself, supposedly tweeted out a racist comment that stated the following: “Going to Africa. Hope I don’t get aids. Just kidding. I’m white!”.  This caused a never ending stream of hatred by offended people to rise against her. The hate that came with the comment lead up to Justine potentially losing her job as a senior director of corporate communications at IAC. Not only did this tweet offended people, there were numerous other tweets from her that affected both her reputation and career.

After the immediacy of her comment took effect on being spread all around social media, Justine’s friend, Hannah, was suffering from the lack of control as hashtags and retweets started being were posted nonstop. Lack of control gave Hannah the inability to delete the racist comments. And finally, permanece ensured that the tweet would never simply go away, Which meant that it was too late for Justine.


It was too late for her to regain her reputation and career from what she had incoherently tweeted. To ensure that something similar to this never occurs again I would her advice that mainly consisted online life behaviors. My advice would be: Give the thought of how others might feel before posting, because life is also lived through the internet.

#MyNYPD

Posted by Trinity Hicks in Technology- Freshmen · Hertz · a2 on Tuesday, November 1, 2016 at 10:33 am

In 2014 the New York Police Department wanted to have some good publicity, so they went on their twitter, @NYPDnews, and posted a tweet,  “Do you have a photo w/ a member of the NYPD? Tweet us and tag it #MyNYPD. It may be featured on our facebook.” They wanted people to post pictures of them with someone from the police department. The intentions the department had went really bad. People started to post negative pictures of the NYPD. In some of the pictures that were posted, the police were pulling hair, hitting people with the batons, choking people and even running them over. If the police all over would do more positive things with the community maybe people wouldn’t look at them as abusers. If you want to have people post pictures make sure you have more positive than negative.

This was a very sad and negative story where there is a huge privacy issue. The story is that a gay male (tyler clemson) was having male company at his Rutgers dorm but, since his roommate was not gay he warned the roommate that he was having company. Since the roommate disliked the gay male the roommate decided to record this and take photos. This happen multiple times and Tyler complained multiple times, and begged for a new room. One night Tyler said once again that he was having company. The roommate went to record this session like usual but this time Tyler was having sex in the dorm. The roommate posted the video that night. Tyler committed suicide that morning.   "The roommate was sentenced to 30 days in jail by a New Jersey judge for spying on Clementi. In addition to his 30-day jail sentence, Ravi was also sentenced to 3 years probation, ordered to complete 300 hours of community service and attend counseling programs for cyber bullying and alternative lifestyles." This shows 
-lack of control-where Clementi could not delete  these pictures and videos.
-permanent-how it was very difficult to take down the offensive content.
