The local news station is running a special on why you should not post pictures on the internet.  If you do, you are putting yourself in danger.

The news station claims that if you post pictures of your trip, some criminal types might see them and then know that you are not at home.  Then they will go to your house and rob you.

While I understand the concern, I don’t think that it is any more dangerous than many of the other things that we post.  Plus, this presumes that they already know where you live and like reading your facebook page.

The News also say that if you post pictures of your house, criminals will figure out where you live and victimize you.  I suppose that after the criminals get tired of driving around with the picture while looking for your house, they will just look you up in the phone book.

But, the news business is all about making money.  So, the more viewers that they get, the more money that they make.  And, all of the people that they have scared with their stories will eventually recover.
