Self Identity

• Ever since the phrase “Googling Yourself” has been coined, people have increasing been accepting that results procured from Googling a name are a fair estimate of what kind of personality the subject has.

• Management sometimes checks on Google to see any information that they can gather on future employees.

Privacy Issues
