“Tweeting Private Conversation #DirtyLaundry” 

By: Paulina Haselhorst

Title:

"Posting Private Convo’s"

 First Impression: 

                  The time I read the title, What came in my mind was tweeCting someone else’s private conversation to entertain the listeners.  

Quote:

      "It takes more effort, more talent and more willpower to say no to tweets that will grab people’s attention at the cost of others. But that is public privacy and respectable entertainment at its best.”

Reflection Proper:

      People nowadays are kind of hungry with what is happening to the famous people in hollywood. With our advance technology today, people can share any private information online. Share anything for their follows to maintain the popularity of your page. Just like what happened in the article, the comedian and writer Kyle Ayers live-tweeted someone’s breakup for his followers. Actually anything you see on the internet is free. There are just e thing that you have to follow when doing this. Never ever mention the name of the author of whatever you are going to post if it is something that will make them feel embarassed because they might sue you for it. It is not also a right thing to mention their name, I think because you are not a part of their conversation, you do not have the right to reveal them to the public. You are just doing it for the entertainment of your followers. There is nothing wrong from what Kyle did, you can’t avoid listening to others private conversation when there doing it publicly. No everyone will just bypass something like this if you mention their name. Some can be very emotional  if they learned that you showed them to the world, some will be outragious about it and will maybe just let it go. It depends on whoever and how really private the content is.

5 Things That I've learned:

1. Everyone is a reporter with our technology today 
2. Post anything anonymously 
3. Go to a private place if you do not want to be the headline of the new tonight 
4. Live-tweeting is for entertainment only 
5. Try not to post all your private events on twitter 

5 Integrative Questions:

1. Why do people want to popular online?
2. What pleasure do you get from being popular online?
3. How can people avoid from evedropping someone else’s private conversation whenits literally out there?
4. How will you react if your private conversation was posted by other user and you’re tagged in it?
5. Why do people want to be update in other people’s life?
