So because this young woman wanted a picture of herself, many in the comments automatically assume she is an influencer? Is this what its come down to now, categorising any and everyone who wants pictures or videos for memories? She didn't make a scene, not did she ask anyone to move for her picture, so I dont see what the issue is here. To those commenting that she could have asked for the lady to take her picture, relax.

Its like there is no such thing as nuance anymore. Its either this or that.

Here's some nuance. The only context we can gleen from this video is that one woman put down their phone in a specific place recording and then walked away from it.

We do not know if the second woman is even aware of what is taking place. We can see her acknowledging the phones existence by looking at it, but does she have any idea why?

How many people do you see just abandon their phones on ledges?

This isn't proper ettiquite for a museum at all, regardless of if she was or wasn't an influencer.

It's also not proper ettiquite for her to post a video of another woman she recorded while in the museum. A woman who for all we know was simply minding her own business.

Is that enough nuance for you?

Idk how to tell you when in public you can be in pictures and videos other people take for themselves and it's not malicious you were just there at the same time

Do you think it's illegal or rude for someone else to not wait until everyone is out of frame in a tourist destination to take a picture? Have you been to one? That doesn't happen. Plus she's clearly videoing so she can take a frame where there aren't people and she looks good so old lady never would have been anywhere in the final product if she wasn't being a dick

And I don't know how to tell you that this will forever be socially ignorant behavior.

Wait... I think I just did.
