I actually think the opposite - historians are going to hate us. Such a vast amount of history being recorded by the everyman, but all of it gone.
Unlike photographs in an attic, or negatives in a filing cabinet, the odds of 99.99999% of the photographs being taken by the everyman surviving for future historians is exceedingly low.
Future historians will get an even more cherry-picked set of images than we have of our past, because the only photographs that will be archived in the decades-centuries time frame will have been done so deliberately. There will be no discoveries of photo albums tucked in an attic.
