In their article, "Strategies and Struggles with Privacy in an Online Social Networking Community", Katherine Strater and Heather Richter Lipford attempt to describe the recent social and cultural developments among youths in respect to online social networking and cyber-communications and how they are redefining young people's perspective of privacy, in order to establish a medium or means to effictively use those developments to strive for more positive and productive means of communication and privacy maintenance in the future. They first establish common privacy strategies encorporated by young people who do most of their casual socializing online, and then reconfigure their habits into more productive methods, giving advice on how to use social networking sites without breaching one's own privacy and accidentaly self-sabotaging. They write in order to reveal the most productive and effective methods of online socializing and how it can either make or break future communication methods both professionally and casually. They write for those who are interested in communications and privacy regulations on social networking sites.
