Did the internet break people? I see a lot more hesitation and reticence in places like stores, malls, festivals.

For example, there could be a a huge line forming and you'd think it's for something exciting, but no, it's because there's a person or a couple people standing in the way and no one feels like they're able to say "Hello, excuse me, may I get by?" and the people talking seem to be completely oblivious to the line forming before them to say "So sorry, did not mean to block your way."

Are people afraid of getting recorded for simply asking someone to step aside? Or have people been so isolated that they've forgotten how to act in public or interact with others face to face.
