Seems to be 50% being oblivious to privacy concerns...and 50% exhibitionism.
I would say it’s more about selfishness than ignorance or exhibitionism. Every kid who went to school in the 80s and 90s (myself included) went through this self-actualization, self-this, self-that crap to bolster self-esteem, and instead of doing that, it made these kids self-centered little brats who cry when they don’t get their way or play the victim card when their bosses give them grief over work habits.
MySpace, Facebook, Twitter... it’s all some self-indulgent need to get 15 minutes of fame over something that a majority of the world public couldn’t care less about.
Uhh--do you not see the connection between those two?
