Children as spy's

Ever since the Internet became popular, it's been common to hear that intimate details of our lives somehow end up on the web browsers of potential employers doing background checks. Now we have the over looming fear that our children, whose blogposts and instant messages may be a source of potentially incriminating information about our personal lives. Police have arrested a woman, using her son's cached record that is kept online about his mother buying him and his underage friends a keg of beer. Perhaps instead of blaming the ISP's for getting caught, perhaps these people should take a look at themselves first and foremost, since it was their own inappropriate behaviors that actually got them in trouble. Or perhaps you are in the camp that sees this kind of snooping as Totalitarian big brother type of a regiment. Do government officials really have the right to use any information gleaned form a child's work? Ethically , no. Legally, that is still up for debate. As long as the tax payers are content to just sit back and let theses things happen to them , then they will continue as long as we let them. Another solution is to not let your children anywhere near the Internet. Or encryption maybe the key. Anonymity can also help. Teach your children that we have to watch over our shoulder because the government is their enemy. You pick which side you want to be on. Remember, Uncle Sam is watching you.
