God, is there literally anything more tedious than people crying about something as completely fake as "cancel culture"?
I don't know how to explain to people that humans have been punished via shame and ostracization because of their speech and actions for literally the entirety of human history.
Not very long ago, in america, people got "cancelled" by fire bombings, drive by shootings and literally lynchings, just for existing as a different skin color.
There were humans that were so incredibly sensitive and fragile that they couldn't even stand in the same line as someone else with darker skin colors.
Now in the year 2025 someone acts like an ass and... gets, what, fired? Oh, no, how awful that they're the only person who was fired from their job this year. Lets all make a big deal about it.

So, influencers are toxic to businesses, that is great.
Hopefully this results in widely banning them from private property and prohibiting random video recording in spaces that one assumes will be moderately private, like restaurants, gyms, etc.
Signs on the entrances that says they are not allowed to film inside and by entry they agree to those terms. If you want to work with a professional to promote your business, use professionals, sign contracts, then film.
Honestly, so sick of those self important parasites, they are like prolapsed paparazzi, and typically embody the very worst characteristics that culture has to offer, all rolled in to one.

An "influencer" with 15k fans is not warmly embraced by a restaurant because she's not much of an "influencer", and makes a crying video about being mistreated. The restaurant has to close and she now has over 300k followers because of that.
