Nearly a quarter of Millennials have embarrassing pictures on their smartphones, according to a survey sponsored by MyLife.com, a security site. Researchers talked with more than 1,000 adults ages 18 to 24 and found that 23 percent would be embarrassed if a hacker stole images from their phones.

“Millennials need to understand that, in today’s world, if you post it to the Internet, send a text, or send a selfie, there’s a good chance that it will last forever, and quite possibly be seen by (way) more than the people you originally sent it to,” says privacy attorney Dave Anderson. “So they should think about what they are doing and really make sure they are comfortable with it before doing it.” (Fox News)
