A safer profile — a final edit

A profile is a calling card

A safer profile is the project of the whole Broadcaster: what the world sees when they do not know you. Not hiding — a default that makes sense.

A checklist:

• A private account or friends only — not a public megaphone
• Bio without a surname, school, class, address, “I am alone until…”
• Profile picture without a kit with a surname, the school gate, a house number
• Nick without a year of birth and school (bluedragon > novak2014zs)
• Tags — who can tag you? Approve?

A final edit step by step

1. Open every network and game you use. Profile settings → privacy → Private / Friends only.

2. Bio and nick — fix one thing today. Surname gone. School gone.

3. Profile picture — fine at the board? If not, change it.

4. Write into the safer profile (paper or a note with a parent):

   • private account: yes/no on each network
   • nick without an ID card: yes/no
   • bio without school: yes/no
   • date of the final check

Renaming a nick sometimes cannot be done immediately. Then clean the bio and make the profile as private as you can. A new account “just because of a nick” without a parent = another door. Fewer accounts is less work.

What to say at home

To a parent:

“I am doing a final profile check. Can you look at the bio and the profile picture? I want it to be fine at the board.”

Into family rules: A profile private. A bio without school and an address.

Now you 💪

Go through the checklist. Fix one thing today. Write the rest with a date.

Show the profile to a parent for a minute. One bit of feedback is enough.

What to take from this lesson

• A profile = a calling card. Private default.
• Bio and nick without school, a year, an address.
• The board rule for photos and a profile.
• A checklist with a parent with a date.
