I've got 4 billion pictures of myself as a child, in various sizes, because my mother could not stop taking pictures. When she died, me and my grandmother had to spent plural days working all day going through legitimately 10s of thousands of photos to see if there were any of real value of relatives or the like (spoiler, not many but enough to justify doing it).
On the other hand, my children will need a sketch artist if they ever get stolen. My social medias use the same picture of me from halloween over a decade ago. I cannot fathom ever even thinking of taking a picture in a moment, let alone of people.
But I've been sitting with women in the past who were responding to their deluge of Snapchat messages and they are taking unique selfies for each one. Dozens upon dozens of faces being made in front of me. This is when they weren't opening an archive filled with thousands more to pull from.

Truly I do not get it.
