Summary: Privacy expert and author Lori Andrews, Forbes blogger Kashmir Hill, and New York Times reporter Jennifer Preston join the National Constitution Center to speak about how the Founding Fathers might have handled online social networks. What would happen if social networking sites were subject to the Bill of Rights? With 750,000,000 members, Facebook is the third largest nation in the world; should it have a Constitution? If so, what rights and responsibilities should be included? Christopher Wink, co-founder of Technically Philly, moderates this discussion from January 12, 2012. Questions or comments?
