    • 2022 October 25, Willy Staley, “The Try Guys and the Prison of Online Fame”, in The New York Times Magazine‎:
      A group of friends becomes a cast of characters, strip-mines lives and relationships for content and, in the process, turns into a corporation, with payroll to process and liabilities to consider. (It’s entirely possible that the Stalinesque removal of Fulmer from certain videos is rooted in legal concerns, not moral ones.)
