It's a form of voyeurism (exhibitionism and voyeurism are porn categories, they are fetishes). I do catch a few of those /r/PublicFreakouts, and they are often intense breakdowns of flawed people. Most of them are of the entitled/racist bunch. We know who the antagonists are immediately in those videos, but the principle of filming a breakdown always felt dirty to me. At least in the realm of sexuality, a fetish is acknowledged as a fetish (and fetishes are usually very private and should always require consent by all parties). I wonder how open people would be to the reality that they are indulging in a fetish by watching voyeuristic videos on /r/PublicFreakouts (sexual or not, and certainly without consent), or exhibitionism by constantly making videos of themselves.
