☆ This TikToker is 'consensually doxxing' people to teach them about social media privacy

Many users go to great lengths to secure their social media accounts — but one TikTok creator is showing people that their profiles aren’t as private as they seem. She responded with a stitched video — a video a TikTok creator combines another video on TikTok. His name wasn’t in his profile, and he uses different usernames across social media. Despite speculation by viewers that she pays for public records or uses computer programs to find people, she clarified that she uses only social media and Google. On Twitter, academics praised her for effectively illustrating gaps in social media privacy.
☆ Taylor Swift 'Midnights' album gives TikTok fan groups more fodder, and community

The magic of a midnight showing wasn’t just about the film but about the community created standing in line together. Some of these fan theories also fuel speculation that Swift might be queer, and in the lead-up to the album release, this conjecture culminated in debate about whether “Midnights” would be Swift’s coming out album. I study fandom and online communities, especially communities that form around fanfiction, and have seen up close that fan theories bring joy to those who engage in making them. There can be a downside to fan theories created around celebrities, of course. But for now, my For You Page has been full of excited videos from fans just enjoying Swift’s music.
