I have saw so many more channels doing outlandish content in the city where people are wearing meta glasses doing POV content. Going into businesses like Greggs and recording staff, reviewing their customer service and then posting it online and monetising it when theyre just trying to do their jobs.
A lot of it is within UK law being able to do photography in public is allowed if in a public place but really should people be taking videos of people in the street and posting it online and making money from it without permission. I dont think TikTok has anything in place to stop this.
What are your thoughts on this? I can see why it is appealing to watch as its very dynamic and the scenery and people in them constantly change.
I see this getting out of hand and someone ending up hospitalised eventually when approaching the wrong people. I feel bad for those with poor mental health being approached and recorded, imagine being anxious and going out for the first time in a while and being posted online. You may not leave the house again.
Should there be laws against this and further restrictions? People often dont realise theyre on camera and find themselves later online.
Some channels include Michael Ballymore, NotReal both based in Newcastle. A lot of it verges on harassment and bullying. It is a shame as some of the content is helping the homeless and giving them support etc.
