Being SAFE/SMART online /.\

Explain if the choices the characters made in the videos were safe or not safe. Why do you think that?
The choices that the characters made on the videos were not smart because they were talking to people that they didn't know. Some of the characters were posting pictures online that weren't appropriate. In my opinion when you shouldn't talk to people online that you don't know because in all reality you don't know who you are really talking to .
