The future of indiscreteness
A comment on CalJunket reminded me of an interesting development coming up in the near future.
In the past, when running for political office, folks would dig up your "youthful indiscretions" and fling them in the face of a usually uncaring public. But it's only a matter of time before our generation starts getting to that age. Will "youthful indiscretions" suddenly expand from reports from bitter foes and newspaper clippings to old internet junk? Google caches quite a bit, after all. Will these blogs come back and bite us if someone decides to dig up dirt on us?
