Again It's Never Private

In the Huffington post article it gives you some ways to help give you a little more privacy while browsing the internet. For example, it tell you to use DuckDuckGo instead of google, Use the TOR web browser a instead of the normally used ones like Chrome, FireFox ect. However no matter what measures we take to stay private the internet or anything that deals with the world wide web can never really be private. Take Facebook for example, you can post whatever you want and send messages to whoever you want "privately". However, what you put up and what you send to people just like everything else is saved in whatever data base Facebook has. The same thing can be said for twitter, Instagram, Snap-chat, and dating sites. Hackers play on this belief that things sent through these sites privately will in return remain private. When there is no real sign telling you that is will actually. I know that in the 4th amendment gives us a right to privacy but this type of information can be seized no matter what kind of expectation of privacy you thought you had. (Sorry 4th Amendment)
