Why is this in the technology community? This is mostly about medical malpractice, the fact that she streamed a video of what why was doing isn’t very technologically interesting or relevant to the tech field as a whole.
Patients complained of severely negative outcomes such as infections, lack of followers and compulsive shitposting. They were duped into consenting to the procedures, believing the claim that she was ‘surgical with da tiktok algorithm’.
Same thing happened on Brazil a couple years ago. I saw the censored videos published by newspapers and they were pretty disturbing, the surgeon was not doing tiktoks that could be classified as educational or informatives, but doing literal tiktok dances while the patient was opened up in front of the camera.
now I have this mental image of someone in surgical gear default dancing in the middle of a heart transplant.

I live in Cbus and this was such a bizarre story. I figured the ban hammer would fall sooner rather than later on this one.
Wouldn’t this be a blatant breach of HIPAA* regulations
Not if the patient consented. My first job out of college was filming procedures in the OR for a private plastic surgeon for his educational YouTube. They had to sign a waiver beforehand though. All perfectly legal she lost her licence because malpractice not specifically streaming. The guy I worked for was legit af (top 5 facial surgeon in the world) and would’ve told me to stop filming it something ever went wrong, not that it ever did.
