Here’s a chilling article from Cracked about 5 Guilty Pleasures The Web Killed.
That rant against corporate greed you made on the Nine Inch Nails forums in 1998? It’s still around, waiting to be Googled by your prospective employer. Your short-lived career as a blogger and passionate advocate of heroin legalization and lowering the age of consent to 16? That’s still floating around as well, ready to be stumbled upon by the Mormon congregation you just converted into. It’s all up there, archived forever, for your children and grandchildren to read.
This isn’t good if I ever apply for a job at, say Apple or Lego.
