MTV, in partnership with the Kaiser Family Foundation, recently launched Get Yourself Tested (GYT), a campaign designed to encourage young adults to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The campaign leverages Foursquare, a location-based service (LBS), to offer virtual badges to people who check in to the service at a health clinic and get tested for STDs. MTV’s intention to help destigmatize STD testing by encouraging young people to take control of their sexual health is commendable; however, the ramifications of publically broadcasting personal information via Foursquare must be considered. In addition, any company considering the use of Foursquare or another LBS should evaluate their target audience’s attitude about privacy.
