Yes. I've seen things on Tumblr that 15 years ago would have had me screaming for the hills and warning people to go and hide :)
Now everything seems 'out there' but the understanding is not - recently, I was asked to explain the difference between fanfiction and original fiction (during a workshop) and I think I managed well enough, but clearly the questions asked were born out of false knowledge ("Yes, 50 Shades was fanfiction in origin. No, it wasn't copied from Twilight." etc etc)

Anyway, yes, the tools change us.
Also, can you share your Tumblr name? I'm phantomas37 :)
