Ever wish that you could say what you really feel about something going on in Klal? Ever wonder just why Klal acts/thinks the way it does? Here members of Klal can have the conversations they should be having but that aren't happening elsewhere, except, perhaps, in whispered conversations in dark corners. Say what you mean here, and let us hope that some conversation now will lead to changes later, some changes that are long overdue in Klal.

In and of itself this information isn’t all that scary. A lot of people willingly share their personal information online, such as their city of residence or even current address. The biggest potential security issues can be related to people's posting of their whereabouts, such as publicly announcing “leaving for pesach now” coupled with the information gleaned from geo-tagging. Additionally, and in sync with the message of the video, I think bloggers might want to be especially careful when uploading pictures to their site from their smartphones.
