>Basic human decency.
You've got a very large, diverse population without a strong social identity and ever-fraying trust. So you won't consistently get basic human decency any longer. That's something which is extended to the in-group with which you have real social ties and obligations. Most people don't have this any longer.

I think it's different though when it's at a private event though, like a birthday party, funeral, etc and folks shouldn't default to livestreaming
