No it's not. They think it's worth it until the negative aspects catch up to them. Then they weep.
Due to some unexplainable optimism, people always believe that injustice won't happen to them. Just like with car accidents. And just like with car accidents, there should be some sort of "insurance" against unforeseen douchebaggery.
It's like this :
- let's say there's a 1% chance of FaceGoogle abuse for anyone
- when faced with that 1% chance, most people (99,99%) will choose to forego the insurance
- 0.99% of people are now vulnerable to injustice
People are not as rational as we'd like. We don't have a very good sense of how likely something is to happen, especially when the probabilities get smaller.
