The age of ‘technology’ and ‘smart’ phones!
Yep. Something this Parker kid should've known about seeing that this technology has pretty much existed his entire life. It's not like the reputation-destroying powers of the internet is a new technology that we are just growing in to. A kid entering college today has likely had internet connectivity in his home since the day he was born and cameras on cell phones for as far back as he can remember.
At this point I kinda feel bad for him. One stupid video and he has pretty much thrown away his future. What college will admit him now? What company will hire him when he graduates? For the rest of his life, they'll be able to google his name and learn of his notoriety.
My two sons are still too young for me to worry but as they grow older, it will be incumbent upon me as a parent to instill in them that the internet is forever and cameras are everywhere. And once stuff gets posted on-line, that's it.
