the digital footprint I have for my self is not bad at the moment on social media such as Instagram I do not post things that are not appropriate and don’t post things that I think would taint my digital footprint such as this image that my friend drew on a whiteboard I posted it knowing that it wont affect my digital footprint
some things that would affect your digital footprint would be things like nude photos of you or others that you send to people or people doing illegal activities which as a big issue at heritage woods secondary school .
some strategies that you can use to prevent your digital footprint from ruining your future career paths are not posting things before you thought about it an example of this may be that you have something illegal in your background and people spot that. another thing that you can do is to not use social media a lot of people think this is hard but it really isn’t and you can live without posting on Instagram. one last thing that you can do is to talk to an adult before posting to make sure that you won’t post anything and regret it.
some information that I learned over my years as a kid is that people can screenshot things and use them against you this isn’t good as they can get you in trouble and ruin your social life along with your future career paths. in conclusion, the best way to have a clean digital footprint in my idea is to think before posting or saying things online as it might come back to haunt you in your future.
