When Miss New Jersey was blackmailed with incriminating photos from Facebook, older pageant winners must have wondered why she would allow such embarrassing shots of herself to go online. Reid Hoffman, chairman and president of LinkedIn, explained the prisoner’s dilemma that is social networking down in Florida to the American Magazine conference:
The younger generation is completely understanding of the fact that tons and tons of info is out on the Web already … As long as people start getting the benefit of it, they don't feel the risk of privacy so much [as older people]. If you actually look … chief privacy officers tend to be over 40.
So in his mind, your embarrassing photos from Rush Week are just as bad as everything else online. By this logic, by 2048, we should have a president who has been photographed with a penis drawn on his face.
