Well actually... doesn't mob justice show that we aren't?
I agree with you in that the response will probably be disproportionate because the exposure is far greater than it could have been prior to pervasive social media etc.
Society will have to adjust somehow, people will either become more aware that their audience when they do something wrong is bigger than you can see just by glancing around, or everyone will stop overreacting to things based on insufficient information.. actually that second one will never happen. I don't know how, but society will have to adjust, social media and such aren't going away.
