There is a big difference when *everybody* has some sort of photo or
social media posts from their past that they would be embarrassed
about, though. At that point, it won't be "what a pillock" but rather
it will be a "there but for the grace of god go I".
Maybe, but you need to wait until today's University students are senior
managers.
I'm not so sure about that. After all, *this* is social media, albeit text
only and anyone who knows anything about usenet could track down a load of
information about us on here. And even though I use an alias I know its not
foolproof and if someone wanted to find out who I was then with a bit of
effort they could and then they'll know all my views which may or may not be
a good fit with Acme Plc or whoever. Luckily usenet is off the radar to most
people these days but its not 100% guaranteed especially when applying for
jobs with IT companies.
