>and what we found surprising is how unconcerned young people are by them. For them, it's a normal part of day to day life."

Well yes, the bad druggies aren't going to reach through the screen and force you to buy crack at gunpoint or whatever it is people fear

Thats ok when the way things are headed with how data is handed to law enforcement via no one reading t.o.s. it will just lead to more open and closed cases. Digital footprints will become evidence.

Genuine question: was it ever really the case that a large number of drug users got their drugs from a sketchy hooded person on a street corner?

Are you asking about "large number" or "large percentage"? Because you'll find street sellers in every reasonably large city if you know how to look even though most people don't buy that way.

The "hoodies" on the corner are the enforcers, physical manifestations of territorial control.
