Messages, photos, and posts can be captured and shared through screenshots, even if they were meant to be temporary or private. Once something is saved or reshared, it can be difficult to control where it goes.

• How screenshots allow content to be saved and reshared
• Why private or disappearing messages are not always secure
• How quickly content can reach unintended audiences
• How to think critically before sharing personal information
