  "I hear from people all the time that Millennials are soooo open about their lives. After all, we blog, we tweet and we update our Facebook statuses allowing all of our friends to read all sorts of things about our personal lives. So I was a little surprised when I saw this article by Heather West in Wireds Geek Dad Blog about online privacy being a generational issue. The study she highlighted, performed by the Pew Internet and American Life project, said that 60 percent of adults and 66 percent of teens restrict access to their social network profile information. That means that the majority of people on social networks are in some way or another protecting what everyone can see."
