It's social commentary and voyeurism writ large and gone mad...as invaluable as it can be in some situations, it's also going to come back and bite many a poster hard on their collective rears.

Quite frankly, I fail to see the need to advertise myself all over the net, and wanting every TD&H knowing all about me. It's a particularly young person's phenomenon...this wish to be "out there" and wanted by everyone. The net is not the most wholesome of places to be trying to find one's place in the world, on. Especially for young people, and critically so for teenagers, as a great many of them have little or no critical people skills to begin with. That many more of them aren't preyed upon by some of the knuckle dragging gutter trash that seems to be attracted to the net like bugs to a bright light, is more a matter of luck than good management.
