A viral r/AskReddit thread asked users what they secretly find deeply disturbing even though everyone accepts it as normal. The question pulled in over 4,400 upvotes and nearly 4,000 comments, and the internet didn’t hold back.
The top answer? Filming everything on smartphones. Redditors called out camera phones in gym locker rooms, strangers being recorded in public, and“shaming”videos posted for clout. One comment about recording everywhere earned more than 12,000 upvotes, with users calling it toxic technology we’ve all just gotten used to.
The thread didn’t stop there, though. Other top answers included always being expected to answer calls, influencer culture, AI, and the shift from physical media to digital music. It’s a pretty telling snapshot of how people feel about the tech running their daily lives. So we want to know: is there a place where phones and cameras should never be allowed? Sound off in the comments.
