@Shouting on a balcony: They even thought about this possibility loudly (see the article). It is pretty unethical to not say anything when you know they don't want you to hear them, especially when it's about private stuff and you are planning to post it on twitter.
@Quality of shame: I think it's more about the audience you as a person expect. Everybody would behave differently when we know we might be watched by the whole internet. Did you ever watch "The Truman Show"?
- mikeash 13y agoAnother thing I don't get: how is it possible to "know they don't want you to hear them" when they're shouting in public? The very act indicates that they don't care about being heard. If they didn't want you to hear them, they would have gone inside.
- chromanoid 13y agoFrom #roofbreakup: "I don't think we need to talk about this up here with some random guy over there." -guy (uh oh, I'm that guy over here) "He's just sitting on his fucking phone he doesn't care (talking about me). Answer my question." -girl But he does care, he sneakily extends the audience to such an extent, both persons obviously wouldn't agree with. He is one reason why it will be more and more uncomfortable to have conversations in spaces, that are originally meant for people and their human needs. see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6827715 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6827715 & https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6827592 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6827592
