Why can't people use the word "anymore" correctly anymore?

Only in the past year have I noticed people using “anymore” to mean “in recent times”.

For example: “Game of Thrones is very popular, people really love it anymore.”

As with “I could care less” and the abuse of “literally”, it takes fifty points off the speaker’s apparent IQ.

Who did this? What happened?
