Social media auto-overshare to meet its demise in 2013, says privacy law expert
Everyone knows someone who overshares on social media,
from constant updates about daily minutiae to an automatically generated
stream of songs listened to, articles read, games played and other matters blast-broadcast through various applications. Intentional
over-sharers may be a necessary nuisance in our wired world, but the
days of the auto-generated social media stream may be numbered, says
Neil Richards, JD, privacy law expert and professor of law at Washington
University in St. Louis.
