Twitpic Trouble

We've all heard of the dangers involved in social networking. Aside from the obvious stalker issues, privacy and copyright violations are hourly occurrences. The latest offense comes courtesy of Twitter and it's photo sharing service, Twitpic.

As you probably heard, socialite Paris Hilton was arrested on felony drug possession charges last weekend while partying in Las Vegas. Police found cocaine in her purse, but Paris denied the bag was hers. Unfortunately for her, Twitter is revealing otherwise. Last month, Paris posted a Twitpic of her new bag, tweeting, "Love My New Chanel Purse I got Today. :)" Is it a coincidence that she happened to be carrying her friend's identical purse that night? I think not.

Moral of the story: think twice before your next tweet.
