The CEO and founder of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg has recently announced that he wants to reposition the social media platform as a privacy-focused platform. On a recent Facebook post, he stated his vision for how he wants to make the service more secure. For years though, Mark Zuckerberg preached the value of people sharing more and more information online, with the mission of building what he often called a "more open and connected world”, while at the same time profiting from that activity by collecting data and using it to lure advertisers. What has changed? What does the future of Facebook as a secure platform look like? Can Facebook be secure?

A high court in the Eastern Cape has found that the government officials were involved in the misappropriation of public funds during the burial of former president Nelson Mandela. Last week the court dismissed an application by provincial government director-general, Marion Mbina-Mthembu to set aside Mkhwebane's findings concerning the funeral of Mandela in 2013. Public Protector Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane has welcomed the judgment as this affirms her 2017 findings that public funds to the tune of R300m were improperly diverted from the Eastern Cape Development Corporation's social infrastructure delivery programme towards the memorial and funeral services.

Yesterday 2 Boksburg schoolboys were arrested for the rape of a 13-year-old pupil. In other shocking stories, four primary school boys are being investigated for allegedly raping four younger boys at school and in another separate case three Grade 8 pupils have been suspended from School in Diepkloof, Soweto, for allegedly raping a fellow pupil. So how does the judicial system deal with such young sexual offenders and their victims? Recently we have also seen viral videos of kids as young as four engaging in sexual activities, while an adult records what's happening. Do our children have a sexual behaviour problem? Or as we as parents to blame?
