Moreover you reveal who is your partner, your friends, your family; literally this is the main tool house robbers use to understand your movements and your routine.
5. True Connections
The biggest misconception of Social Media is that you NEED it if you want to be in touch with your friends. Reality is that if your friends are REAL friend they will always find a way to spend time with you even if you quit social media. Moreover you rarely meet someone on social media the first time rather you meet them in real person and then you exchange socials. You may have thousands of friends on Facebook but the reality is that you can only give as much as 10 friends the needed time to keep a friendship alive.
