Outrage over anything fades fast these days. Who's up at arms over the Equifax breach anymore?

  Generalization: Outrage follows exponentially damped cycles unless a significant observable direct immediate loss is incurred. First outrage has huge spike, second exponentially lower and so on. Example net neutrality. I feel this is population's way of minimizing energy spent but with very small horizon optimization.
