I thought the article touched on an important point: the reluctance to be nude in public is the commodification of bodies (through photography, social media, plastic surgery, porn), where effectively people drawing a line where they did not have to before. I think people are increasingly aware of this in their interactions in public spaces, especially when so much more of our social interactions are up for commodification through social media and the like (even the commodification of sentiment and political issues which is raison detre for many Twitter personalities, journalists and podcast hosts)
