3 | McGruff Introduces Faux Paw Faux Paw (Video Clip 4:05.87) Explains the basics of personal privacy on the Internet and and three basic rules to follow. 1) I keep safe my personal information—all of it! I never give my real name, address, phone number, the name of my school, or a picture of myself to anyone online. 2)I keep away from Internet strangers—no matter what they tell me, because I have no way of knowing who they really are. I don’t talk with them online, and I never meet them face-to-face. 3)I keep telling my parents about everything I see on the Internet—I always tell them or a trusted adult when something makes me uncomfortable. |
