I was being a little tongue-in-cheek as far as predicting the 23rd century (the article was about the DS9 era of Star Trek).

My thesis is that people do care about privacy but are motivated to share in order to portray a certain image. They don't want all of the ugly stuff revealed. So I don't see how people will start caring less about privacy when they realize that they don't have any control over their image.
