The magic age is people born after 1981,” said Sam Altman in a New York Times article. “That’s the cut-off for us where we see a big change in privacy settings and user acceptance.

but what about sex ON the internet?

(via newsweek)

The comment about the dividing line being “whether you had sex or the internet first” is brilliant. I’m not about to take a poll, but I think it explains a lot. My younger brother (by 5 years) often says that he considers it “weird” that mom and dad remember a time before the internet. When I remind him that I too remember a time before the internet, he calls me old.
