Social Media can be quite engaging and entertaining ... However, not all participants are equal; not all participants play by the same rules, and the concepts of rights, privacy and protection are constantly tested. Think of the following:

1. Kid using Club Penguin (now a Disney property) ...
2. Kid's Dad writing a screen-scraping routine so 'junior' can get money quicker to buy really cool igloo accessories quicker ...
3. A kid mashes up a song, then posts on YouTube ...
   
4. Bots and trawlers trying to hack through say, CAPTCHAs or access accounts ... for whatever reason ...

On the mashup in 3. above, check out the You Tube Video of Bad Day - over 2 million views ... At least they credit Daniel Powter at the end of the clip.
