A short spoken monologue arguing that privacy concerns are overblown for millennials because the generation voluntarily broadcasts personal details and is more focused on social privacy (e.g., who someone texts at night) rather than fears of identity/data theft that preoccupy Gen Xers and baby boomers.

I think privacy concerns are way overblown with this millennial generation. I mean, this is a generation that chooses to broadcast their life real time. This is a generation that's overly voyeuristic and looking at everybody else's lives. Gen Xers and boomers not click on these ads? Is that what we're saying here? They did not click on their ads, but their concerns of privacy, getting their Social Security number, credit card number stolen is way more than the millennial generation. Their concerns is who I'm texting at 2:00 in the morning. Is that going to way more personal in terms of privacy than on a business basis?
