>I feel like the internet's desire to shame and ridicule these people is borderline sociopathic
Jordan Peterson had a point when he said that anonymity (freedom from consequences) creates monsters. I'm all for a completely anonymous environment where we could have actual free speech (the internet once almost embodied this ideal concept). Yet the other side of the coin is the invention of smartphones, which had now created a world similar to the dystopian Black Mirror episode where everyone has an implant that constantly records everything forever.
I just feel so bad for those two, as their careers and lives are now getting utterly destroyed forever. Byron will not only lose millions in the divorce court (that would be cruel enough), but it's likely that he won't get another job ever again, as any future HR lady will be able to google his name in seconds. I think it's even possible that the woman (not his "official" wife) is going to kill herself, as successful character assassination is the worst social death sentence for women. All because normies need a socially safe and approved target to project their hate onto, like we have seen so clearly during the pandemic, with the treatment of the unvaccinated.
This type of technology, the smartphone and the omnipresent internet, are one of the worst of Pandora's boxes that we have opened so far.
