Of all the dystopian things, this is probably the most dystopian thing I’ve read lately.

This is horrible.

    People my age have their whole friend groups on location sharing apps like that, it's awful.

    Witch your age group. Do you mind giving examples where it's been helpful and maybe examples when it's not been so helpful?

    Like 16-17, I don't talk to the people that do that too much because they're not the type of person I like hanging out with, so I don't really know why they do it.

    It's like an extension of their group chats, on snapchat.
