This is why, I think we need to make ICT (Information Communication Technology) a mandatory subject in our schools.

Teach kids about the internet. Many people are still under the assumption just deleting something would make it disappear for ever.

Maybe a lot of people from our generation are doomed to sharing too many things online, but we can at least save the next generation from themselves.

You make a mistake 10 years ago, may be a few close friends in your town know about you. Now you make a mistake, the whole world has access to that information.

Government regulations, bans are not going to do anything to stop the spread of information, we need to educate people to protect themselves from their own selves.

Judging by how much of a hash lots of schools are doing with literacy and numeracy (and we've been teaching these things for ages), I don't have high hopes for ICT.
