It’s the camera. Younger streamers have no idea about the past but the older ones do. They know it’s the camera that changes the whole proposition. Some of them have talked about this. If people think they’re live on camera then everything is different when there’s an audience and they believe it might be someone famous to whatever extent. Nobody wants to cause an international incident.

When random nobody put themselves in sketchy situations with nothing else but their nobody self then they are absolutely putting themselves in danger whether they perceive it to be or not. There’s neither a live audience nor the illusion of “celebrity”.
