Seems like being 'big mad' about this is a total misunderstanding of the social norms around social network usage. You can certainly be it, but it's not productive, it impacts your health and changes nothing about the public perception of your issue (ie 'everyone does this all the time, wtf is your problem') or the behavior.

As in "Anything you do where anyone can sense you might be broadcast further than you thought. So either shut-up and shut-in or get used to it."

Remind me not to friend you :-)

Joking aside, I didn't read OP as "big mad" about this. Just a little wistful. And possibly glad to have good subject matter for a public blog post...

To me it sounded as though the social norms are different in this space. Essentially that’s the culture clash.
