Haha, what do they have to do to find out who the subject is, right? To do this sustainably, maybe to depend on view counts, mood of responses, weirdness of subject. More algorithmic nightmare. Or maybe we can all be like the princes. Be proper all the time. Wait, that doesn’t work too well, does it. 🤔
Nah, pure anarchy. If we’re all weird all the time, then we’ll start seeing more videos of people doing normal mundane things because that would be the weird thing socially.
