Privacy, the Internet and You (from the office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada)

Please find attached a link from the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.  They have created a program called Social Smarts that may be useful for parents and students when considering privacy issues as they relate to Social Networking, Mobile Devices, Texting and Gaming.  I think that the audience is mainly for grades 7 – 10, but some ‘older folks’ may find it useful, too.
