- I could take a survey of college students who use facebook and ask them the main reason that they knowingly reveal potentially damaging information on a network that may or may not be private. Ironically enough, I could use facebook to ask this question.'
- Harnessing the opinions of the users of facebook will give a direct insight into the reasons why they divulge the information.
- Depending on the content of this information, it could possibly either support or oppose the information found in secondary sources. The reason for this will most likely lie within the individual's tendency to not tell the truth, or it could also possibly be attributed to unconscious decisions made by the users.
- If at all possible, I could try and contact someone who has been the victim of a facebook-related mishap and conduct an interview. Perhaps someone who: was rejected from a job, got in trouble with the law or their parents, and/or sexually predator'd.
- Finding the thoughts off those who have been directly affected by the lack of privacy on social networking sites will provide an important opinion. I will be able to find out what is ultimately more important: Personal intergrity or Social expansion.
