Is social media responsible for our lack of privacy? Maybe we need to take a good look at ourselves before we attribute motives to the wrong culprit...

I agree with you. How much a person reveals on social media is the sole discretion of the individual. I think that some markets benefit more from being more open and candid about their lives, but regardless of the market it's up to that person. I'm a pretty open person in my marketing. I don't mind sharing snippets of my live with my following. Now, would I let them in on what's going on in my personal relationships with my spouse? Of course not. My market doesn't really warrant that. However, someone who's in the relationship and dating niche could potentially benefit from exposing this part of their life.
I'm actually more inclined to believe that people who are more open with their lives do better in social media and have a much more loyal following than those who don't. But, I would be choosy as to what parts of my life I'm open about.
Again, great post and I appreciate you sharing it on BizSugar :)

Well, there is definitely a difference between airing your dirty laundry and sharing stories that could help others.
The former are stupid, the latter are needed. ;-)
