Freedom is something that is very important to Americans. Along with the right to bear arms, freedom of speech is what makes this country great, but is there such a thing as too much freedom?

Freedom is something that is often misunderstood and often abused. Yik Yak is a great example of this abuse.

Yik Yak is essentially a public/private diary, allowing anyone to post whatever they want at any time. You will be connected to the nearest corresponding board to you, and you can only post locally.

If you ever wanted to interact with people online while keeping your identity a secret, Yik Yak is the app for you.

I think it was actually a great idea for an app. However, I want to call attention to some of the people that use it.

There are plenty of people who use Yik Yak correctly. People will get on Yik Yak to distract themselves, like many other apps, or to ask a question they might not want to ask someone in person. For example:

On a scale of 1-10, how bad is it to text a guy after a one night stand.

This is one of the more appropriate posts on Yik Yak. Other examples are people complaining about classes or if anyone knows a good place to eat.

The real problem with this app is the amount of freedom you are given. If you have something to say, you can say it, regardless of the content. Here are a few examples of some of the inappropriate posts you will see on Yik Yak:
