Social network is an advanced form of communication binding people having specific values, ideas, friendship, visions, and so on. This network revolves around categories such as friendship, professional links and love relations.

The relations of social network are built based on the user`s everyday life, and gets expanded with every new contact. Entering a social network involves building a personal profile by giving email address, personal interests, work experiences, hobbies, and so on. This is the point which the contact network widens and helps in building thematic virtual communities. Some of the online social networks are Friendster, LinkedIn, Orkut, Kibop, Myspace and Facebook.

Speaking about the security of social networks, there is a threat of divulging the personal information and the theft of identity is a matter of growing concern. Personal information stored in the social network sites includes intimate details such as religion, relationship, personal hobbies, views on politics and many others. The security issue is that the combination of details makes it compelling and interesting, besides being potentially dangerous. It is easy to locate theoretically the place you live and the hour you are available, and this may lead to some personal problems.

Excessive blabbing can lead to unwanted gossip and in this process there are chances of revealing more than essential information. Hence, be safe by paying attention to the revealed information, and being discreet by taking time to understand the privacy policy published in these sites is a must. It should be a rule of thumb not trust anybody immediately and also not to share personal information. Even, if various social networks come together because of security issues, considering them individually is a must for specific security weaknesses.

Privacy is the main concern and hence adhering to some simple advice such as thinking twice before sharing your password, and after typing the email address and password to login, and ensuring that the `Remember me box` is turned off, is a must. Similarly, log out after using the social network sites are simple recommendations assisting to keep the data safe. Above all, avoid putting sensitive information on social networks by restricting the kind of information to be shared. If you are referring to hobbies, do not enhance it with work information, as privacy settings should be customized and even then if something undesired crops up, block the access and report violations.

Hiding specific areas of the profile such as contact information from certain people is also one of the best ways of maintaining security. However, to employ this technique, make sure that only few preferred contacts will have access to the concealed information. This can be done by choosing the privacy settings that allows you to decide viewing and also in blocking applications, if undesired. Preventing network users of knowing about your presence on the site can also be done, so that you are not interrupted every time you log in.

Facebook and Myspace are two of the largest social networking sites and are hence a main target for hackers, spammers and online predators. As a result, it is always recommended to be conservative and controlled in exposing your personal information.

Young girl raped and beheaded in Florida by Mexican traffickers

June 30, 2008

As pointed out by this representative of the Florida Attorney General’s office, it is impossible to separate national security issues from illegal immigration, and one of the most important illegal immigration issues in Florida is the issue of human trafficking. And as Jake at Freedom Folks notes (thanks for the tip), this story doesn’t appear to have been covered by the news wires. (see related video reports below)

Here, a horrifying story is described of a little girl who, after being taken to the Florida panhandle from Mexico, resisted while being raped, and was subsequently made an example of by being beheaded in front of other girls being held to be raped repeatedly. The girls made to watch were then left in the room with the little girls body for several hours. Click here or Goolge for video (SOURCE:Hyscience)

This terror from Mexico must be dealt with. All the drug human trafficking and all the killings and beheadings in Mexico has moved north to the United States and no one seems to even acknowlege it is even happening much las doing anything about it. The main stream media does not seem to want to report all the crime coming from Mexico.

Law enforcement say they are doing what they can and they point to the following artilce we published earlier today;

“Dangerous gang members arrested along with over 200 others who were wanted for violent crimes in Operation Falcon 08. This massive effort was lead by the U.S. Marshals Service intended to catch people wanted on warrants for violent crimes, sex offenses and other felonies.

At the same time another massive law enforcement operation targeting violent street gangs in Los Angeles was taking place. Seventy members and associates of the Drew Street clique of the Avenues street gang have been named in a federal racketeering indictment. The leadership of the Drew Street gang – notably “shot-caller” Francisco “Pancho” Real, who is the lead defendant in the indictment – collects “taxes” from those who sell narcotics in the neighborhood, according to the indictment. A portion of the taxes is then paid by gang leaders to the Mexican Mafia. Drew Street gang members also raise funds for the Mexican Mafia by conducting armed home-invasion robberies and collecting extortion payments from area businesses. The Mexican Mafia allegedly authorized Francisco Real to take control of the Drew Street clique less than a year ago.”
