Are you frightened of becoming internet content?

Question

Apparently, Gen Z is frightened to do stuff in case they end up ridiculed as "content" online. There's also a fear that some silly drunken act on a night out could ruin your job prospects forever.

So are you scared to have a laugh, do dumb shit, and let your hair down on a night our in case you end up humiliated online or do you not give a flying fig?

I try to live in the moment at all times. I've done some stupid shit. I've done some insane shit. The last thing I ever worried about was some internet famous "influencer" capturing me on video. The asshole would have to be where I am in the middle of the same shit show. I'm pretty sure filming would quickly take a back seat to survival instincts. If not, the influencer probably doesn't survive to post their video. So much like Alfred E. Neuman, what me worry.

Perfect and absolute safety does not exist, and never will. I just do what I have in mind, still using a little caution. Some people knowing me discover some of my naughty content? So what? Actually amusing to see their reaction. Actually I'm convinced that plainly admitting and taking upon oneself is the best way to deal with such situations.

Problems only occur when one tries to hide and negate indulging into such naughty Internet activities. Mind that being discrete does not mean hiding or negating. So, to answer your question: I'm not frightened to become "Internet content" ;0)

There is a party advisor website and they show some pics of me without paying me a cent, but they asked me if they can make photos.
Otherwise 99% of video in night clubs are gigabytes of noise trash without flash or strong light.
However 4 inches makeup is funny because in hot nightclubs is makeup a problem.

The good news is with Ai you can just say it's Ai, most people won't check, and as deepfakes get more and more common, this will be a more valid excuse. That's my plan if anyone ever finds my nudes anyway lol

The "star wars kid" grew up to be a lawyer and specializes in online bullying. So it's not a new thing. It's also scary how Ai is narrowing the job market.  It is definitely something to be aware of.

People don’t get to film strangers here, much less get to publish them. That’s part of our privacy laws and I’m glad to have them. Fuck these worthless creator clowns.

No. I would prefer not to be "internet content" but I don't think I'm particularly interesting content cause I believe I carry myself in such a way that would not create a lot of interest for outrage reasons or whatever. Just regular people acting normal isn't what gets attention on the internet.

I'm a Gen Zer. I still do plenty of dumb stuff and have made poor decisions. So I'm not going to worry too much. OFC I'm not going to do anything illegal. I also am somewhat careful of not letting any naked pics of me get out there with my face on them. But with AI getting more creative... who knows!

I'm glad I read the details. I thought this question asked if I was contented, satisfied, with the Internet. 🤔 That's a completely different topic. 😏

RavVid · Answer

I suppose we really shouldn't have made up all those GEN Z jokes and pointed at them and laughed but... if they leave their safe space... well...

Levin · Answer

Gotta be careful realistically. Nudes, wanking and the internet is fairly combustible. Some of us have been on the internet before you were even born, poppy.

NathanDavis · Answer

I'm just glad we were not into uploading or recording everything we did, back then... lol

Ill_made_Knight · Answer

Don't care at all... wondering about the flying figs however... do they relate in any way to the swivelling being done while seated?

molonski2 · Answer

Vastly more careful than I once was... Any notification is a pain in the arse - generally.
