Dpsychologist:
A lot of people are misbehaving online today because of Facebook monetisation, TikTok live gifts, clout, and small change.
Many wantto trend and not thinking long-term.

Here’s the problem:
The internet has permanent memory. No delete button. No forgiveness mode.

What you post today for likes will become evidence tomorrow.
What you say today for money will become history your children will Google.

Look at Lana Rhoades. One of the most watched adult film actresses in the world. Entered the industry at 19 broke, young, claimed she was manipulated. Today she’s a mother. And now she’s begging for over 400 videos to be taken down because she’s scared her son will see them.

Sounds human, right?
But here’s reality:
The internet doesn’t care about growth.
It doesn’t care about regret.
It doesn’t care about explanations.

Once it enters the web:

It’s copied
Downloaded
Reuploaded
Monetised
Archived
Forever.

While some people are shouting “exploitation,” others are shouting “hypocrisy.”
And trolls?
They already saved backups.

That’s the cold truth.

This is not about shaming anyone.
This is about consequences.

Before you:

Go live doing nonsense
Say rubbish for engagement
Post things you can’t explain in 10 years
Trade dignity for small money

Ask yourself one question:

Can I defend this when my child, employer, spouse, or future self sees it?

Because your past will come knocking.
And when it does, excuses won’t open the door.

Be careful what you upload.
Be careful what you say.
Be careful what version of yourself you immortalise online.

The internet is patient.
It will wait for you.
What is the point of posting the pic of Lana Rhoades now?
What was that meant to achieve ?

Re: Your Past Will Knock: The Internet Never Forgets by RightToReject(m):
This phrase "internet never forgets" is absolutely false. Anyway, I wager it's only those who do not have a background and indepth knowledge about IoT in particular, and CS/CE in general, that have always propagated it.

Many people have been denied jobs, visas etc with simple notices like "we regret to inform you that the position is no longer available" and "we can not grant you a visa at this time due to administrative reasons or due to inconsistencies in your application" without knowing the real reasons. Continue doing stupid things online thinking you are living your life. A time will come in the future when your own sons will masturbate with your leaked adult pictures and videos.
They were denied visa

For what

When they're not Islamist

I saw my girlfriend on tiktok live, doing "naughty girl" game. She didn't know I have a tiktok account. Displaying her big breasts for her gifters. It was shocking and interesting at the same time.

whatever you believe in works for you. If you believe that your past can’t stop you, it won’t. Sometimes you need to be a fanatics, it has it’s own advantage too.

As kids and teenagers,
We all did stupid things that we regret later. I was born 1995 and my generation did worse oooh . The only difference is that we didn't document it for the whole world to see.

They record and post their crimes online
We do ours codedly and low-key That is what set us apart
Lol

Maybe 1985, but '95 folks are just two years away from being the eldest GenZs. So, which one is "my generation did not post things online"? Ox of Paystack na GenZ?

not just her. Her likes are mentally dull, I'll tell you for free that majority of Nigerians don't know that there's a website called nairaland.
And I'll also tell you that if you were able to find nairaland in twenties and thirties or even bellow, you're 75% smarter!
That is untrue. Nairaland is in the top five most visited Nigerian owned website.

If you were born in 1995, you're still a lad and shouldn't be talking as if you're middle-age person. Na just 3 years separate you from Gen-Z.
Don't mind him. A 30 year old suddenly feels he is way older than the eldest GenZ.

You don dey talk like say na new news. Person wey hear you go think say na yesterday internet just invent.
Make I ask you, all these plenty talk wey you dey talk, na for who? For the mumu wey don already collect monthly data and dey hunt for clout like lion? Dem no dey read long thing like this. Dem dey chase trend like dog wey dey chase okada.
You dey cry about consequences like say dem no know. DEM KNOW! Na the "consequence" na im be the content. Your "scandal" na their "brand". Your "regret" na their "engagement". You think say na mistake? Na strategy!
Lana story? Na old trailer. Today matter na: "How I use my past scandal buy new G-Wagon." The pikin go grow, see the videos, and the mama go tell am, "See money wey I use train you. No judge me." Na so market set now.
You dey warn people wey their brain don sell for data? You no see say for their eye, your warning na content idea? Dem go screenshot your talk do video with sad music talk say "See how society dey judge us."
The real truth wey pass your own na: Internet no get memory. Internet na BINGE-WATCHER. E dey watch, e dey laugh, e dey share, e dey forget you tomorrow for another trending scandal. You think say you go immortalize? You go vaporize! Tomorrow, another person go do something more stupid, crowd go rush go there, your own matter go cold.
So all this your "future go knock" talk...abeg. Na today's likes dey pay today's bills. Tomorrow na tomorrow. If trouble come, dem go use am do another content: "My Redemption Story." Everything na content circle.
My own advice pass your own: DO THE WORST! TREND THE HARDEST! Make your past so terrible say when e knock tomorrow, e go meet(bouncer) for your door. By then, you don already buy the house wey the door dey for.
Life is not 1 + 1 = 2 .... except for tye favoured Ones !

If Life wan treat ur fvck Up ... You will be messed Up!

Thus always watch your today, past and tomorrow but if shit happens just dust Am and walk On .... Many Better things ahead!

That's why I laughed when Tiwa acted like her leaked tape was nothing. She even said she had wiped it off the Internet. Lol.
It's Nothing My Brother!
Absolutely Nothing!

In the next Decades, Nobody would remember Tiwa Savage Nor Her Noodles again ....

Do you know Salawa Abeni ... Do you know she dated Barrister and Kollignton ... Do you care huh

Why ? Because there are alot of greater events occurring today than those Nonsenses ....

Kim kardashian fvcks Ray Jay and her pvnny is still out there but who cares .... huh

Same way next Gen Wouldn't care her Tiwa, Her Son and Her Sextape .... Only The Morality Police Of Her Civilisations(Her Present world) would Judge her Next Civilisations would be thinking about Projects to Mars, Sun, Moon, Techs and New Crops Of Stars ... Who is Tiwa ??

If you know how world works ... you won't disturb yourself too much !!

You talk life no be 1 + 1 = 2. CORRECT! Na 1 + 1 = "GO AND SETTLE AM FOR COURT!" Na so e dey.

"Favoured ones"? Brother, who be the favoured one? Na the one wey dey USE the fuckup turn am to fuel. The one wey fuckup don show for Google front page, but im bank account don hit seven digits. Dem no treat am, dem PAY am. Na so.

You talk say "if life wan treat your fuckup..." Abeg, make we no dey gentle. LIFE NO DEY TREAT FUCKUP. LIFE DEY AUCTION AM. The highest bidder shame, money, clout na im go carry am. You dey talk "messed up" like say na punishment. For some people, na BRANDING.
"Dust am and walk on"? My guy, you still dey 2005. New model na: "PACKAGE THE DUST, SELL AM AS LIMITED EDITION 'MY COME-UP STORY' NFT, THEN WALK ON WITH THE MONEY." You think say dem dey dust shame? Dem dey POLISH AND MONETIZE am.
You dey talk about watch your today, past, and tomorrow. WETIN YOU DEY WATCH? Na to dey DIRECT the film wey dey play! You be actor, producer, and marketer for your life movie. If scene bad, edit am, add soundtrack, sell am as "raw and real."
The "better things ahead" wey you dey yarn, na the same "better things" wey dey make person pour milk for bath-tub for Instagram. Tomorrow dey sweet, but TODAY'S TRENDING TAG NA IM DEY BUY TOMORROW'S RICE.
So your advice sweet for ear, but for this internet jungle, na survival of the SHAMELESS. The rule no be "watch your step." The rule na: "MAKE YOUR STEP SO LOUD AND DIRTY, EVERYBODY GO DEY FORCE TO WATCH."
Na why I talk am before: Do the worst, trend the hardest. Because for this life, na the noise wey you make dey determine your value. Silence na for cemetery.
If shit happen, no dust am... BAG AM, LABEL AM, SELL AM ONLINE.
Walk on with the proceeds.Simple.

A few months ago, a young lady (cant rem her name the gist was also reported on nairaland) said she was lured into porn at the age of 19 as a way of making ends meet. she continued for years and became famous. Now that she has a son and has decided to settle down, she is begging the world to please delete all her x-rated videos so that her very young son doesnt grow up to watch them. Is that gonna be possible?? Last year in an interview, Rihana said she regrets many f00lish things she had done when she was much younger; just so her children dont grow up to see their mama "vital parts" in the open air. Many GenZ now go dey form "I no send i go do anything i like, its my body bl bla bla"......in their moments of regrets when their past stops them from making progress in this modern day world where the internet doesnt forget, you and I will not be there to cry with them and say "eh yaaaaaaa"....afterall olosho dey taya naaaa.

I hear you, OG. You think this one na new generation madness? Na you dey yarn like person wey never see market before.
Make I ask you: the original "bag am, sell am" na who invent? Na my generation? Abeg, make we no joke.
Na the same generation wey sell country oil block for $20.
Na thesame generation wey package military rule as "patriotism" and sell am.
Na thesame generation wey see political disgrace, bag am as "exile," label am "asylum seeker," come dey give interview for BBC.
Na thesame generation wey turn ethnic crisis to bestselling memoir.

You think say we invent the market of shame? WE JUST GET NEW PLATFORM. Before na newspaper and television, now na TikTok and X. Before na "grant interview," now na "go live." The game na the same. Only the pitch don change.
You ask if I fit give my pikin this advice. My answer: I NO NEED GIVE AM. By the time my pikin reach 10, THE WORLD DON ALREADY TEACH AM. E go see influencer wey leak tape enter Bentley. E go see politician wey forge certificate become minister. E go see pastor wey collect offering buy private jet. E GO SEE SAY "SHAME" NA CURRENCY WEY SOME PEOPLE GET, OTHERS SPEND.

My pikin go ask me: "Daddy, why dem dey disgrace this person online but im dey fly private?" Wetin I go tell am? Make I lie? Or make I show am the REAL FORMULA:
Get Attention (by any means),
Monetize Attention (by any means),If they attack you, monetize the attack (by any means),Repeat.

So, OG, I no go advise my pikin to sell shame. I GO TEACH AM TO READ THE MARKET. I go show am say some shame na liability, some shame na asset. The difference na in the branding and the buyer.
You dey talk like say moral na straight line. For the marketplace of life, MORAL NA PRICE TAG. E dey differ from customer to customer.

My final answer: I no give am advice. I GO EQUIP AM. With sense, with thick skin, and with the wisdom to know when to wear shame as armor and when to sell am as souvenir.
The world don change. We never change am. We just dey sell inside am.
