This is very interesting to me as an entrepreneur who thinks of why versus what.

The onset of 'exposure' due to instant connection and integration via connected devices has enabled society to have a peek into the social aspects of our behavior, savory or unsavory.

As kids, and when our parents were kids, very similar behaviors occurred as to what kids are doing today - in my opinion, the only difference is that we can now view what occurs today, whereas in the past it was word-of-mouth.

Humans be humans, regardless of the century.

but back then it was called "mass hysteria."
One thing I think that is good to keep in mind with regards to doing things in the past, is that if there was money to be made, people would find a way to get things done. Certainly in 2015 with computing it is far easier to flexibly accomplish a lot of things, but if your livelihood depends on getting something done, specialists in the past would find a way.
