Rutgers Student Suicide
The story goes - two students filmed another student having a sexual encounter with another man and posted it online. The filmed student ended up killing himself. The news is bubbling with calls for anti-bullying efforts - particularly against homosexuals.
But the real issue is privacy. Kathleen Parker addresses is here.
People think things like Facebook and smaller video equipment and internet dating are these neutral activities. They are not. They are bringing down walls of privacy and identity, walls that were constructed for a reason. For civilization to function. The world works on trust and limiting information to those that need it or can pay for it. Identity and reputation are constructed over years of behavior, by our actions, our decisions, etc.. Retarded brats like Mark Zuckerberg don't understand or care about such things. They want to "revolutionize" for no apparent reason other than the fact they didn't get laid very often. They don't seek privacy or care about reputation because they possess nothing of value. No thoughts of value. No relationships of value. Just insecurity, weakness, and ineptitude. These are who we are handing over control of our reputations, our identities? Unwise, if you ask me.
