Now that is an interesting question. Lowering the time discounting of an entire society is pretty much awesome for everyone involved.

We need to get some RCTs or at least large epidemiological surveys on the time discounting of sousveillers & lifeloggers.

This is the subject of an episode of Black Mirror. It's hardly an exhaustive investigation but it's certainly a good slice of Twilight-Zone-y sci-fi.
