I cannot reply to a previous comment, due to it not federating here, but the children of 2020s will literally be online from day one!
There are countless parents that are posting pictures of their newborns on social media, on Instagram or Facebook, straight to a server in California, so imagine that every single person whose parents are like oh, I don’t care about privacy, I got nothing to hide bro will have at least one photo there.
And it’s not only that. They’ll just never get to experience how life goes with no computer in sight, with no smartphones, not even cellphones at all. No computer, and more importantly, no internet, just cartoons on TV such as Life with Louie or Courage the Cowardly Dog or the Looney Tunes series. And even more importantly, no social media. None at all. Nothing to distract you from actually living.
I worked at a young familie’s home. By yound i mean she had her first kids pretty young i assume, she was around 40, and he oldest maybe 18. She probably had in total 6 kids in their houshold. There were a lot of pictures of her, her boyfriend and children in the house. It super reminded me of my best friends house when i grew up. They had a lot of children and a lot of fotos, most of them very formal and some hand painted, because that was a thing back then, most of them very nice and framed.
The weird thing i found about her houshold was, all oft the pictures there where heavy filtered. Not just beauty filters, also the dog filters and all that instagram stuff. Something about it was so odd. Some pictures even had instagram handles on it, even the youngest had her own Instagram and he couldn’t even write yet. Apparently it was really important to her to get them “good” handles as soon as possible. I dunno, i’m glad i don’t have social media and non of my family is into it as well.
One of my friend/couple sent me a friend request for their newborn… Like, dude, I was willing to get a TDAP/LDAP booster so I wouldn’t kill your newborn, but I’m not going to friend them on Facebook/insta…

I would say that not only the children’s lives are documented on the internet (that was the case in 2010’) but also their parents.
e.g. pewdiepie had a child recently and basically his whole life is documented in a video form. All his highs and lows.
