The following statements about digital footprints are true:
-
Your digital footprint is permanent.
-
Your actions online contribute to your digital footprint.
The other statements are not accurate:
- What other people post does not impact your digital footprint. (This is false, as others' posts about you can contribute to your overall digital footprint.)
- You are in full control of who sees your digital footprint. (This is also misleading, as while you can manage some aspects of your online presence, you do not have complete control over everything that is shared about you online.)
