For example, maybe you’ve seen someone live-streaming at the worst possible time — like an influencer filming content at the DMV who accidentally showed their personal info, including their full address, to hundreds of strangers.

Or perhaps you’re a small business owner who’s dealt with it firsthand, like a bakery owner who prepped hundreds of dollars’ worth of baked goods, only for the customer to try and pay in “exposure.”

Then there are the ones who wreak havoc in public, like stopping traffic in the middle of the street to nail a “candid” shot — except they nearly got hit, held up a line of cars, and then yelled at drivers for “ruining their shot.”

Even national parks aren’t safe, with influencers sitting in fragile meadows or bothering wildlife just to get the perfect picture, despite all the signs telling people not to.

And of course, there are the “prank” videos at other people’s expense — like influencers who will harass people at the bar before admitting it’s all for their YouTube channel.
