the cultural shift towards ubiquitous CCTV in the 90s and then the rise of cell phone cameras in the 00s paved the way for this new cultural norm of "if you're in public you consent to being filmed", and i absolutely hate it. whenever i'm in a public place i'm worried i will end up in a video like this and not even know it. i know i have a tendency to stick out, in a way that some people like to ridicule, i just thought i had largely left the need to worry about that behind when i finished high school.
