Should We Be Posting Children Online As Much As We Do? 

Over the past few days, there’s be an ongoing conversation on the Nigerian side of the Internet labour whether or not children should be posted online. 

This was triggered by a viral video of the National Youth Service Corp member @BackhatDude who creates TikToks with his pupils. 

Unsurprisingly, people had strong opinions. Many argued that posting the children online is unacceptable and infringed on their privacy. 

Others pointed out that it may have negative effects on the children. 

Then there were others who felt the corper deserved extra scrutiny. 

While these guys pointed to the potential benefits. 

To these people, everything is fine as long as the parents gave permission.

The question still remains: where do we draw the line between posting children and simply exploiting them for views on the internet?
