It's not the only reason, but it has not helped.
@PNS
We are living in the worst possible timeline. Every possible distopia at once.
It's not technology per se, it's technological post-scarcity creating a Rat Utopia scenario.

Yeah, I didn't really listen to his argument that much because it's just hard to take him seriously.
People didn't stop reproducing because they might get recorded when they're dancing at the club.
Ubiquitous recording is about 20 years old and population decline dates back to ~ roughly, WW2

That is literally the reason bruh.
Think about it. In order to open up and flirt, you need to push boundries in a socially unacceptable way. That is the entire point. To get to a point, where social norms no longer apply between the two of you.
Yet instead, now we live in a world, where there is no safe place to attempt crossing that line, and punishment for such a failure is jail and complete social condemnation.
Good luck asshole.
It's exactly what causes the failure of the mouse utopia.
Even mice need a little privacy for courtship and mating. When there are other mice literally everywhere, they can't breed. And the antisocial behavior of overcrowded mice leaves an imprint which makes them 'autistic' even as the population declines. Finally none of them are able to breed, and the colony dies out.

They just obviously don't have enough kids running around yet. "Door is opening!" 😆🫣
Just give them a pair of scissors to play with and lock the door like a real parent. 🙄
I got one of those quirky "barn doors" for our room & still no lock. My 6-y.o. would bust it in 5 sec flat, anyhow. Think The Shining, but it's all good... keeping it legal still.

8 1/2 fucking years and Thing 2 is bursting into the bedroom every night without fail. You have to time sex just after they've gone to sleep as that first couple of hours is the only garunteed privacy. But they won't fall asleep without someone sitting by their bed for an hour.

Thing 2, lol 🤣 My oldest needed me to be touching him until he was over 5 to sleep... 🙄
Thing 3 gets thrown in crib: "see ya, buddy!" Hallelujah. Thing 4 still in bed with me, though. Last one, only girl. Awww.

Yeah number 3 takes himself to bed. I've found him several times just passed out on the lounge room floor too. Plays by himself too. The kind of kid that makes you want to have a 4th.
