Why are people upset Mayor Bloomberg wants to warn people about the dangers of using earbuds and headphones?

Asked by JLeslie (65458points) March 9th, 2013

It’s going to be a campaign to raise awareness from what I understand, not a new law that people can’t use earbuds.

Just last week my 42 year old girlfriend was surprised to learn loud noises can damage our hearing. Honestly, I find it quite shocking someone can get to the age of 42 and not know; but, she didn’t.

Do you remember how old you were when you learned loud noises can harm your hearing? How old were you when you finally took it seriously?
