never forgotten

Chris

Exactly. I often wonder if people consider that when they post pics.

Sternbetrachter

I am pretty sure that they don't

Chris

Very short-sighted of them.

Sternbetrachter

that's way nicer worded than my thoughts of them being dumb

Chris

I just don't think they think things through to realize the pics will be out there forever, to resurface at the most inopportune time.

I'd say "kids these days" but it's not just kids, is it?
I mean, it's tempting to share things with the world but don't people know that the internet never forgets?

Chris

exactly. And even if you have second thoughts, it might already be saved elsewhere.

Sternbetrachter

in some cases, I find it great that the internet never forgets

Chris

Yeah, I guess there are some advantages.

Sternbetrachter

and maybe one day, people will realize that the WWW doesn't equal freedom and being anonym in like ... 50 years or so

Chris

Time will tell, but I believe you're right.

Sternbetrachter

thanks I like being right

Chris

Don't we all.
