After viral kiss cam moment - have we lost the right to anonymity in the viral age?

Have we lost the right to anonymity? By now we’ve all heard about the couple who went viral after being caught looking embarrassed on a kiss cam at a Coldplay concert in the US. An offhand, cheeky comment by frontman Chris Martin and a whole lot of internet sleuthing later and it turns out; they were colleagues having an affair. Details of their personal and professional lives spread across social media like wildfire, and the man involved resigned as CEO of a major tech company. But, it’s not the first-time people have gone from complete unknowns to internet sensations... which makes you wonder – in an age when just about everyone has a camera in their pocket, is having our worst moments captured and put on the internet outside of our control? Is there anything that can be done -- or are we all at risk of being publicly shamed?
