        Definitely. The people in that clip had no idea millions of people would see that video. Apart from funniest home video shows, there was no concept of home movies going viral.

        Nowadays anyone filming that shit is an in-genuine influencer and it’ll be uploaded to ((mass surveillance tech company)) if it’s not live-streamed.

      True, though curiously if you appear with a big camera people respond far better than to a phone camera, despite the familiarity of the latter.
