Im Gefühlsextremismus

Summary | Social media have messed with our sense of privacy. Celebrities can now address their fans from a seemingly private realm of self-orchestrated social media presence and regular people can become famous very quickly when they embarrass themselves enough on social media. Additionally, one can be made famous on social media by cyberbullies and previous partners by sharing "revenge porn" (nudes shared during a romantic relationship) after a breakup. The general tenor on all social media sites entails schadenfreude (rejoicing over other people's misfortune) - whether it be directed towards celebrities' faux-pas or normal people.

Freizügige Sekretärin: Nackt-Selfies aus dem Bundeshaus
(Revealing secretary: nude selfies from the Federal Palace)

Country | Switzerland
Topic Tags | politics, pornography, sexting
Summary | A secretary working in the Swiss Federal Palace in Bern has been regularly tweeting nude images of herself from the workplace. Experts now discuss whether this is reason enough to dismiss her. Although she has not crossed an explicitly defined line, the secretary's actions can be argued to be a threat to the security of of her workplace. Had she been a higher official, this misconduct would have certainly qualified for her dismissal.
