They Didn’t Ask to Go Viral. Posting on Social Media Without Consent Is Immoral::It’s typical to ask friends for permission to share pictures of them. Yet people don’t extend this courtesy to strangers, either because they think nothing of it or they need to go viral at all costs.
I’ve reported pictures/gifs of accidental nudity that were posted on Reddit without any evidence of consent, and they blew me off. Not just ignored me - they took the time to say the content was fine.
Yeah, it was legal to post stuff like that - no reasonable expectation of privacy in public places and all that. But it isn’t ethical. Don’t do it. It isn’t funny.
The culture of being e-famous at any cost causes people to do all sorts of awful shit. The fact that some people are misrepsenting situations, framing them falsely, then posting them online and getting millions of views is disgusting.
But what could be done to stop that? The government in my country is very very slow to adopt new laws to address the reality of what life is like now. Just look at how long it took them to do anything about middle schoolers vaping.
This makes me think of the time I went to a haunted maze type place. The friend I was with was pretty terrified (normal reaction) and when one of the costume monsters chased her into a corner with her hiding her face and screaming, a bunch of random people started filming her and putting their phones basically in her face. I yelled at them to leave and they just started filming me.
I just imagine how many YouTube and TikTok videos we are in without us knowing.
