'There is my wife recording': Man wants wife to stop videoing their family, but wife disagrees because she's 'big on social media'

Thanks to smart phones, any moment can be videoed or photographed, and not everyone is okay with that. 

Smart phones have made our lives infinitely easier, I wouldn't deny that. However, the cost of everyone having a smart phone is that any and every thing is recordable now. From people's best moments to their worst, people aren't afraid to pull out their phones and start filming. Then, they often share it to social media, where they can share it with friends, rake in likes and comments, and possibly even go viral. 

It's easy to feel like we've created a societal panopticon, where no one can do anything without the possibility of being recorded. It's enough to make you want to breathe into a paper bag for a little while to calm down. Some people still really dislike being recorded, even as it becomes more and more engrained into everyday life. This guy asked a question about his wife's video recording and social media habits, and actually got a wide variety of answers from commenters.
