I think you're right. Back when I was in high school(not too long ago, I'm only 23 now), you could screw up and maybe become the joke at your school, but you can simply move somewhere else and become someone else. Or you'd graduate and move on from all of that.
Now kids grow up in an environment where much of their lives take place online, where dumb things you've said or done are available somewhere, forever, to be used against you. Is it any surprise kids are the way they are when they are shown that even something they said 10 years ago can be brought back and used against them to destroy their lives?
