Learning in a digital age/LiDA102/Societal issues/Impersonation
From WikiEducator
Impersonation online refers to the act of creating an online presence in someone else's name. This is potentially a complex issue as some social media sites permit parody accounts or accounts that are intended to represent real individuals. It is not necessarily illegal to impersonate someone per se, for example comedy, but online impersonation is a growing problem. Many social media sites have anti-impersonation policies, but this is not sufficient guarantee or protection against the risks of online impersonation.
Feel free to share personal reflections on the phenomenon of online impersonation by posting a comment on WENotes.
