Here’s a non-paywalled link to an article published in the Washington Post a few days ago. It’s great to see this kind of thing getting some mainstream attention. Young children have not made an informed decision about whether they want their photos posted online.
I really hope it becomes the new normal to stop posting everything about ourselves non-anonymously online in general. But especially photos and information about kids. I am hopeful that in the near future, we’ll all look back and say “What the fuck were we thinking? We all looked like narcissists exploiting our kids for likes!”
It’s crazy to me for many of the people in my demographic consider it totally normal to have all of your online social interactions tied to the same persona/user, using your real name, face, locale, employment status, etc
Stuff people do online is potentially public forever. WCGW?
