Lesson 2: Digital Persona

IThe internet is amazing. We can make new friends, hang out with old friends, find information on pretty much whatever, or just play games. With this, however, people can find out a lot about what you've done. Employers use this tactic to determine whether or not you would make a good employee. Because of this, many people advocate for the creation and use of digital personae. An digital persona is a name or account that represents you on the internet but is not your real name. But beware, because bad people will sometimes use an digital persona to pretend to be someone other than who they are to gain your trust.
