Diplomats and civil servants are to be warned about the danger of putting details of their family and career on social networking websites. The advice comes after the wife of Sir John Sawers, the next head of MI6, put family details on Facebook — which is accessible to millions of internet users.
Lady Sawers disclosed details such as the location of the London flat used by the couple and the whereabouts of their three children and of Sir John’s parents.
