What Happens To Your Snapchats

       When you open your Snapchat, you are only allowed to see it for a few seconds, and then it is supposed to delete.  But security expert Nico Sell says that the Snapchats are still being held on a server.  Since you can’t keep pictures from Snapchat, some users will screenshot it or use a different app to keep the pictures.  If your picture is screenshooted, the user would get a notification.   The Federal Trade Commission has accused Snapchat of also getting users private information when they put in their number to find other friends on
Snapchat.
        I choose this article because a lot of people are on social media.  Since Snapchat is used by a lot of people, I wanted to see how much actual privacy Snapchat gave them.  I also found this article interesting because many people have saved Snapchat pictures and I wanted to know who people knew that someone had screenshooted their picture.
I found this article on ABC News http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/deleted-snapchat-photos/story?id=23657797
