With more information, comes more responsibility.. you have to understand what you're doing... unfortunately, some folks with smart phones are not the least bit technical so can make those type of mistakes.
Joe, I agree completely. However, I've spent almost 40 years doing a lot of high end residential electrical installations and talking to my customers. Most of my customers - well educated or not, doctors, lawyers, etc, - have only a rudimentary understanding of what their electronic toys can do and can use only a limited number of their capabilities. This applies across the spectrum of audio-visual systems, smart phones, alarm systems, cameras, lighting/dimming systems, you name it. If we toss computers, electronic readers, and tablets into the mix it gets worse. Using your standard bell curve, very few people are technologically savvy, most people know something, and a few don't want to know anything.
I was surprised by the article, and the ramifications of doing something as simple as snapping a picture and posting it on a chat site can be far more than most people expect. Indeed, it is getting more and more difficult to be well informed about the consequences of our actions.
