> "It may not take long for a creator to go to more and more extreme lengths to attract votes from their followers, ending in potentially self-damaging or humiliating scenarios" We've seen this on Twitch with streamers doing "marathons" for getting more subs and therefore money... The model for this app clearly will force the creators to do more "interesting" or "risky" questions to grab attention. If it gets enough traction , it's not going to end well.

Is that really much different than what employers ask of us?

  Yes because there are myriad laws preventing sexual harassment, physically dangerous practices, minimum wage, etc

Livestreamers have it bad enough already when they allow viewers who donate to play audio or TTS over their speakers. Here is one hilariously tragic example with a Seattle livestreamer who went by the name "Arab Andy" while in a UW classroom. Hint: it landed him in jail. https://www.bitchute.com/video/VOI9sw3MmDM/ https://www.bitchute.com/video/VOI9sw3MmDM/

  Him filming the people running away and laughing might have contributed to him going to jail.
