I remember when the advice was to NOT give out your personal information online.

Now it's "present your personal info when demanded or else".

Yeah, I remember when I finally had my own address and could stop entering nonsense. Felt like a rite of passage.

There's not a single point in history where everyone on the planet advised just one of those things simultaneously.

  • There's not a single point in history where everyone on the planet advised any one thing at all, ever.

  • There has also never been a single point in history when everyone in the planet was over the age of 70, but there are also a lot more people who are over 70 now than 1000 years ago. I don't understand why you think that all fractions between 0 and 1 are equivalent.
