Gezile: From Content Creator to the Content of the Day (Watch)
From Content Creator to being the content of the day
Not long ago, Zambia witnessed several viral scandals involving leaked intimate videos.
Many believed those incidents would serve as a lesson about the risks of recording and storing private moments.
Instead, just when people thought social media had recovered from previous viral sex scandals involving influencers, another video has once again taken over Facebook conversations.
From being a content creator to becoming the content itself, the latest trending video has left many people shocked, asking questions and wondering whether this is the new normal.
A video allegedly showing Zambian social media content creator and Junior Lwala’s baby mama, Gezile Smith Mwale, in an intimate situation with another woman has gone viral,
Whether shared intentionally or not, the growing trend of private and explicit content finding its way onto the internet continues to bring debate.
And In most cases, when people hear the word “selling”, they think of someone selling themselves to the opposite sex or even the same sex.
Today, recording sexual activities has become something many people do as if it is normal.
It seems the word privacy is slowly losing its meaning, with intimate moments now being shared online for the whole world to see.
The question remains: Is this the new way of getting numbers? Or is it simply about sustaining a social media brand in an era where attention has become the biggest currency?
