Worrying about online privacy. Kids will accept that online privacy simply does not exist. They’ll have the mindset that OF COURSE the government/corporations spy on us, and people who are concerned about it are quaint, clueless, and exasperating.

It's disturbing how common this mindset already is.

I've heard not being on social media is a growing trend with young kids because they want privacy. A lot of them have had their parents oversharing their entire lives and they don't want to do it anymore. I'm old though so who knows how true this is.
