The problem is that you can’t do stupid shit without creating a permanent video record. You can’t say stupid shit online without creating a permanent record. I don’t miss being as stupid as I was when I was younger but I do miss the freedom, knowing that there was a limit to the consequences of your actions. Every single thing I said and did was not preserved in searchable form, to potentially come back and haunt me for the rest of my life. You have to be so careful nowadays and you have to internalize that as a fact of life. You are being watched and recorded, for ever.
