  • Who is wasting resources on this? Seems a bit pointless.

    Also, I think its rather perverted that if someone makes it clear they want to be left alone/anonymous, the society/media declares “NO!” and goes to insane lengths to figure out who they are.

    Same thing happened with Lordi, the Finnish metal band. When they won eurovision, the main guy said “I would appreciate if we could stay anonymous, or at least not have our real faces plastered all over.” So of course the largest gossip magazine in Finland felt the need to plaster his face on the cover of their stupid magazine.

    Though that did lead to a funny thing… There was a “campaign” to boycott the magazine called “käännä Seiska” - “turn Seiska.” My friend didn’t get the full idea, since “käännä” is a slang for stealing. So he stole a bunch of those magazines from a shop, only realized he was supposed to turn them upside down not steal them, after he got home with a pile of Seiska magazines.
