    Finally someone sincere to us spoke of our rights on social media. Vultures like Whatsapp, facebook. Instagram and their likes are always preying on our privacy. Wish more and more people could break off from this curse which social media brings along: the curse of losing all privacy to those who are least of sincere to us
