Not so private

Why do renowned chefs have top secret recipes? It seems almost like a thing of the past, that our grandmothers hold onto their secret prized recipe and one must earn it for it to be passed down.

Some people are of the understanding that recipes are meant to be shared. On the other hand, some will protect their secret recipe and intentionally leave out an ingredient if they reluctantly share it.
When it comes to social media, some people do not care to privatize their accounts and occasionally are guilty of oversharing online. While this is not the same as oversharing a recipe, it can similarly have unintentional consequences. 

Social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, provide their users with privacy and security settings. These are to protect their content from being public to the world. There is some wisdom behind privacy, and our grandmothers knew all about it.
