From time to time I am asked to give a view on social media, social networks and online communities by Traditional Media. As part of my ongoing commitment to education and awareness raising on privacy, identity and protecting our content, I usually comply unless the journalist is clearly taking an antagonistic and negative view with no balance. It’s rare, but it does happen. Contact details are email: laurel (at) laurelpapworth.com or mobile: 0432 684992
