  1. Polarizing feedback from haters vs super fans. You are either being villianized or adulated and nuanced perspective is deleted or drowned out.
  2. Incentives to make controversial or life altering decisions (like ragebait or having more babies) has an impact to both your life and your job (babies make marketable content).
  3. Blurred lines between the person and their Internet persona.
  4. Fostering para-social relationships is a successful business tactic but can backfire with people questioning parts of your life you don't want questioned.
  5. Constantly having to come up with new content keeps you on a hampster wheel.
