But sadly, it appears that even content creators who are trying to fight against these editing tactics are not getting through to some people– because, despite the message about how harmful these videos can be, countless commenters still badgered Victoria for the name of the app she used.
“That’s crazy… what’s the app?” asked one commenter.
“Bro, someone just say what the app is,” pressured another.
“What’s the app, bestie,” wrote a third.
Victoria has since refused to give up the app name, and rightfully so. However, she did reveal that on the app store, the software she used is available for download by anyone over four years old and up– yet another terrifying threat facing kids today.
Regardless, though, the point is that the next time you see someone who looks utterly flawless online, you cannot trust it. And we can only hope that informing people about this newfound seed of doubt will move us one step closer to the end of social media comparison games.
