Could just be "the media" or perception or whatever, but there seem to be more instances of people deciding that they are qualified to act as moral arbiters to the general society. The Ashley Madison story is a great example, but also there seem to be more instances of minor things like people breaking into cars to "rescue" dogs or babies (and often then discovering that the dog or baby in question is not real, or otherwise not what they thought). Not sure what to make of it, maybe people think they're Superman, or maybe they think evil and corruption lurk around every corner and somebody has to do something so it may as well be them. The question always is: what if you're wrong?
