>We can be grandpas together. The extents people give away their privacy just for a tiny bit of convenience and/or security is kinda frightening. What happened to the times when people were extensively warned about not revealing your identity online and the importance of separation of concerns, and being wary of online activities in general?

Yeah It is scary. Especially as it becomes normalized. Laws and standards starting to be crafted with that as the norm. Too many things tied up in the cloud.

Another thing: people, especially the youth, are increasingly becoming what they post. It has been both interesting and sad to wacth much of family over the last
few years go from being people with various interests become reduced to just regurgitating the lastest fad or oppinion on social media. It can be almost funny in a way too sometimes. Seeing someone constantly switch from being paleo to being vegan and back again.

I guess this could be described as just a high scool teenager complex of sorts, one that certainly a lot of people will grow out of. But I feel that doesn't quite cover the full picture. Anycase, I am certainly part of the grandaddy club.
