Someone tooted a brief clip of a young man on a panel describing, devastatingly well and simply, the damage technology had wrought on the lives of younger generations.

Someone tooted a brief clip of a young man on a panel describing, devastatingly well and simply, the damage technology had wrought on the lives of younger generations. Including why 'young people don't dance', which is stuck in my head ever since. I quoted it to someone today and want to send them the clip but can't find it. If this rings any bells with anyone who can point me in the right direction (please), I'd appreciate it.
I was hopelessly vague there, I belatedly realise. I can't remember his name or the event name. It was a table debate. He was white, about 30, had gorgeous long hair. As well as young people not dancing on a night out for fear of being recorded, he talked about dating apps designed to keep you coming back; the fear of being recorded if you try to chat to someone you're attracted to; and that none of his friends have children. He said it better than that which is why I'm seeking the actual clip.

@agturcz Yes! Thank you so much. And you found it with no real information, before I added a bit more clues. Much appreciated - thanks.

Now, that is interesting.
I do recall seeing that video and either bookmarking or "starring" it, but can't find it now.
(And, sadly, can't seem to remember any useful phrase to look for it elsewhere. Just a strong visual image.)
Could it possibly have been deleted?@walfischbucht It's still around! I just added it (with thanks) to the original toot

Connor Leahy explains spot on how tech companies are acting in a 'wild west' fashion. Getting very rich without taking societal responsibility while leaving a great mess behind.

@CiaraNi Happy to help!
@Eetschrijver Much appreciated - thank you!

@detritus It's in the specific context of the digital free-for-all we let happen to society and individuals - his examples included not dancing freely for enjoyment on a night out because you will be recorded by someone and may end up being mocked online.

Me too! I can’t dance worth crap but I did anyways. Dancing is self expression. It’s terrible the younger generation won’t experience it. -

@Eetschrijver I am happy to have got both links - the second one you shared also had his name and the event name, which I didn't have. I am grateful to both of you who helped me out here, thanks.

We sleep-walked our way into letting profiteers sell our social freedom, and the next generations' entire social lives and freedom, for more profit.
