40 Of The Utterly Idiotic Things That People Have Posted Online And Received Backlash For
This is a healthy dose of absurdity and, sometimes, trolling.
The internet is a wild place, so we always have to be careful about what we put out there. We ought to have learned a lesson about uploading something anonymously after witnessing the power of screenshots.
We always have time to pause before clicking "share," whether it's a dubious comment or a potentially regrettable photo. However, some people blatantly ignore this fact or don't think it's significant.
The end result is a healthy amount of silliness, hilariously stupid posts, and occasional trolling. The majority of us occasionally overshare things on social media.
It seems that we sometimes lack a filter for what to publish and what not to publish, from personal information to job grievances and live locations. And even though we can remove the posts and pictures we later regret sharing, not everything can be undone.
In fact, divulging too many intimate details about your life can be quite risky. Nowadays, the majority of individuals are very engaged on social media.
Few of us, however, stop to think about the kind of data we disclose to social media sites and what they might do with it. The funniest and most dubious things people have been caught sharing online are compiled in the list below.
