“Filming strangers without their consent. I see TikTok videos of people filming strangers and romanticising it. People are just going about their day, waiting at the bus stop, sitting in the park, having coffee with a friend, or even CHILDREN — but some weirdo is filming them from a distance. I would hate if I opened TikTok and saw a video of me just walking down the street. I’d be like???? It’s not aesthetic and cute; it’s creepy and giving stalker.”

“Don’t film or photograph people in public just trying to live their life. Last year at the train station, I committed the unspeakable crime of eating Doritos on the platform while I waited, and I realized a pack of 11-year-old girls were filming me and laughing. Like, WTF? OK, so I may not be particularly cute or stylish, maybe I’m a bit chunky and didn’t necessarily need the Doritos, but I’m just sitting over here minding my business. Now, I am super self-conscious when I go out without my husband: Are my roots too gray? Does this top fit weird? I should wait until I get home to have a snack. And even if it’s not happening to me, I hate seeing it happen to others. Like that jerk who posted a woman in the locker room because she…used the locker room to change her clothes? Or someone posting another person’s pic when they are doing their Tesco shopping because they are wearing something unusual. The whole trend drives me mad.”
