Should we post photographs and videos of bad behaviour on the internet?
I personally feel that we should not be posting evidence of bad behaviour of others. First, by putting it on the WWW(World Wide Web) will ruin the person's reputation and other people's view of him/her. For instance, if you saw someone sleeping on the train and took a snap of him then post it on the internet, this would show people how inconsiderate he is but it would cause inconvenience to the victim as people who have read the blog might shun them after discovering about their inconsiderate acts. Second, if you were to accidentally leak out some sensitive information on the person, the person may sue you for defamation and this would create problems for both parties as it would probably be settled in court.
On the other hand, I think that we should show the inappropriate acts taken by the people. However, we can only do so if it does not disclose any information that can identify them. If he/she happens to find out about their acts, some may be embarrassed and change their bad habits while there are also others who do not care about how he/she is seen in public and continue with their acts.
