“It was something that really frightened me. The idea that you might think you’re being careful, and you might think that the things that you’re posting aren’t giving away too much, but if you’re giving away just tiny bits of information in each post, somebody could be accumulating them, getting a pretty good idea of what your daily routine is like and if they wanted to, they could come and find you.” - author Kathleen Barber talking about the posting too much personal information on social media.
