1. Tough to take back. Whatever you post is basically permanent. Even if it is deleted later, there is a chance that it has been copied, forwarded or reposted. Plus there are Web archives that hang on to content even after it has been taken down.
2. What the background reveals. Review what is in the scene that is recorded: posters, photos, school, address signs or car license-plate numbers all can reveal your identity or location. Not forgetting what you say too.
3. 'You are what you wear.' Think about what your appearance "says" about you, and if you will feel comfortable showing this video to your boss or employer, a relative or your family.
4. Respecting others' privacy. Be respectful of the privacy rights of people in your video. If taping in a public place, be sure to ask permission before including bystanders, and never take video of children without their parents’ permission.
5. Everybody's a videographer. Don’t think someone needs a video camera to record video. Cell phones and still cameras are also now video recorders.
6. Be a good citizen. It’s your right to express your point of view but don’t be mean or nasty. You can be held legally responsible if you slander, libel or defame someone.
7. Respect terms of use. Most video sites have terms of service that you must adhere to. Most of them prohibit sexually explicit content, gratuitous violence, and videos that are harassing, defamatory, obscene, libelous, hateful, or violating other people's privacy. Most responsible sites report videos depicting child exploitation and threatening or illegal acts.
8. Respect copyrights. All reputable video-sharing sites prohibit the unauthorized use of copyrighted material. This means you can not upload TV shows or movies.
9. Avoid video bullying. Creating a video that makes fun of or ridicules another person can be extremely hurtful. This and other forms of cyberbullying are a growing problem on the Internet which affects many children and teens.
10. Kids' Web video viewing. Even though most of the major sites prohibit pornography and gratuitous violence, there are videos that are not suitable for younger children and some sites do not permit video that may be inappropriate for children or teens.
