Why it is important to be cautious.....

This is one of the many reasons why it's so important to be aware of security when blogging. You never know who is reading what you write. There are many sick people on the internet....I know many people argue that stealing pictures and posting them on your own blog doesn't harm her or her child, but I know I would feel very violated and creeped out by this situation!

AN EXCERPT:
Margaret Post, a writer and blogger, writes about the sickening experience of having pictures of her son stolen from her blog. Her parenting blog was primarily written for family members and friends who wanted to experience in the joy of Margaret and her husband's first child. She was astonished to learn that she had an unwelcome reader: a nefarious stranger who not only stole pictures of her son from Margaret's blog, but posted them on her own blog and told twisted tales of "her" son, renaming Margaret's son Dante.
