Privacy violation occurs on social media when a person uses another individual information without acceptable consent from that individual. Or if it is not in the interest of society. Social media is an excellent tool for communication. It should remain an instrument of interacting with individuals or professionals without feeling threatened to be exposed. Privacy is applicable in any field, from the word of God to any other form of communication. God is the initiator of the privacy concept. Anyone should respect others’ privacy everywhere. People should watch what they post on social media. They should respect others’ privacy for the wellbeing of others and avoid to put themselves into trouble. Ethical and legal issues caused by privacy violations on social media brought many challenges to caregivers. They are dealing with problems that people could avoid. Social media should be used wisely with love and care for self-protection and the protection of others.
