In this week’s episode, we explore how TikTok has “ruined” New York Fashion Week a second time due to the platform’s obsession with exposing people, brands, and events. We look at several viral videos from creators who shared their negative experiences at the event and dive into other examples of times when TikTok's culture of over-sharing has led to a real-life impact, for better or for worse.
