A buddy of mine
was asked by a complete stranger
for her honest opinion
about a publisher.
After being assured
that her opinion would be kept private,
my buddy gave it.
It wasn’t flattering
but it was an opinion I shared.
The stranger posted it
on her blog and on social media
with my buddy’s name attached to it.
There are no private communications,
especially with strangers.
Assume that everything you type
or say
will be posted on social media,
associated with your name
or your brand forever.
