It actually didn't, but it probably should. I feel like social media has kind of tainted capturing video of personal events. Now, it kind of has the connotation that you're capturing something that can potentially go out to millions of people, whereas pre-2000, it felt like video was just a fun thing you'd record purely for the enjoyment of those close to you.
This is very familiar to me. When I was a kid, I thought home camcorders were amazing. In my high school/college years, people were still at the tail end of using disposable and pocket cameras so I have barely any photos of myself or friends from those years.
Now when I see a camera out somewhere, all I can think is "oh jeez...are they gonna publish this on freaking Facebook?" and debate whether to ask (and risk coming off like the paranoid nutjob acting like a buzzkill).
