The same questions have been explored at length by photographers for decades.
To me, it boils down to the intent of the person holding the camera. If the intent is to get views and grow the channel, it’s awful behavior.
Documentary photos/videos are a real thing, but documentarians also focus on respecting their subjects, and this feels like anything but that.

- nox100 3y agoIt's a response to this claim > documentarians also focus on respecting their subjects plenty of documentarians do no such thing. In fact they make documentaries specific because they don't respect their subject.
