你的生日是最不能透露的信息之一，你的名字和住址也包括在内。因为人们可以通过这三种信息轻易获知你的银行账户和个人资料。

The best case scenario here is acquiring a polite admirer. Worst case scenario? A stalker who calls you incessantly.
电话号码被泄露后，最好的情况是碰到一位礼貌的爱慕者。最糟的情况则是不停地被跟踪狂电话骚扰。

Oxford psychology professor Robin Dunbar theorised that humans can maintain approximately 150 stable relationships.
牛津大学心理学教授罗宾·邓巴的理论是，每个人平均可以和大约150人保持稳定的关系。

After looking at 3,375 Facebook users, Dunbar found that of their Facebook friends, 4.1 were considered dependable, and 13.6 exhibited sympathy during an “emotional crisis.”
在调查了3375位Facebook用户后，邓巴发现，在这些人的Facebook好友中，平均有4.1个好友被认为是可以依靠的，有13.6个好友在用户经历“情感危机”时会表现出同情。

Victoria Nash, acting director of the Oxford Internet Institute, posed a really good question on this subject, and it’s to do with consent:

What type of information would children want to see about themselves online at a later date?
孩子们长大以后希望在网上看到关于他们自己的哪些信息呢？

Previous generations never needed to consider this, but the advent of the internet and social media has given this question more importance.
过去的人从来无需考虑这些，但是网络和社交媒体的出现让这一问题变得更加重要。

2013至2014年间警方记录在案的性侵儿童案例达36429起……在英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰，警方记录的性侵儿童数量在过去十年达到了高峰。

Yes you can set your preferences to exclude your CEO from certain update, but isn't that more hassle?
是的，你可以通过偏好设置让你的首席执行官看不到你的部分状态更新，但这不是更麻烦吗？

11. Credit card details 信用卡细节

Never. This is never a good idea.
永远不要透露信用卡细节。这从来也不是一个好主意。

12. Boarding pass pictures 登机牌图片
