Reflection:

 

      Getting someone's picture, identity without someone's consent is not something new to the online community. Personally, I think people who do this are people who has low self-esteem they envy of something that somebody has and you don't, or maybe people that has malicious intent like scamming people. I think its hard to prevent this type of thing but what we can do is minimize like be sure to give out information that are considered safe to social media or to the public just don't put your personal details like home address, cellphone number because it might bring harm to you.
