According to the dictionary definition I would say that 'gossip' is always harmful, so the phrase 'harmless gossip' cannot exist. I agree that it is not wrong to talk generally or postivitely about others but I wouldn't call that gossip.
If we pass on 'gossip' that we do not know to be fact then we are a 'slanderer' whether we realise it or not.

But surely you don't need or have to give that control away. From what's been said surely 'social networking' is not a problem in itself anymore than 'alcohol' is. It's the naive that create the problem.

So in reality it is not dangers of 'social networking' it is dangers of naiveness in people that needs to be addressed.

I don't want to minimize what happened to you in any way but the symptoms you mention are suffered by many people for many different reasons. I don't see how (or why) they should be attributed to past abuse.
I for one have many (but not all) of the symptoms you mention.

Don't people know the 'internet' is open to all. Why would people enter personal information they don't want some to know? Why do they think facebook allow 'free' use of the site?
And why would you allow 'friends' you don't know access to your most 'personal information' when they can be restricted with privacy settings?

Despite the fact that the first two meanings of 'Gossip' on The Free Dictionary are:
1. Rumor or talk of a personal, sensational, or intimate nature. 2. A person who habitually spreads intimate or private rumors or facts. Although to give them their due they didn't actually say 'gossip' is good but they did say: "Casual talk about others helps maintain healthful relationships."
