Notes from Millie D

Okay, this one gave me a good laugh.  Even though it is a little tongue and cheek it still makes a lot of sense.

Dad’s Household Computer Rules

* Do not break the law. I don’t have money for bail or fines.
* Do not invade others’ privacy (and I will respect yours).
* Do not give out ANY personal information about yourself or the family.
* Be truthful about who you say you are in online communications.
* Talk to me if anything about a website concerns or confuses you. I know that bad sites can be accessed accidentally.
* Don’t download and install software without my permission. I mean it.
* Be as smart, skeptical, and cautious online as you are elsewhere.
* Don’t do anything you wouldn’t do if I were watching you. I just might be.

If I were rewriting these today, I would add:

* Watch how much time you spend online. Too much and you’ll go blinky and possibly psycho.
