    Here’s the takeaway:

    28 people between the age of 20 and 49 were convinced by a rapper to bully a Youtuber.

    Let me rephrase that: 28 FULLY GROWN ADULTS who should know better elected to heed a local celebrity’s incitement to ruin someone’s life on the internet.

    This is pathetic on so many levels…

      Ms Berdah is due in court on a separate charge of money laundering and her marketing company Shauna Events is being investigated for fraud.

      Apparently the Youtuber might be trash as well. Not convicted though so who knows.

      It’s just trash swirling around everywhere.

        I think it’s pretty safe to say that a Youtube “influencer”, a rapper and their fans aren’t prime candidates for a Mensa membership.

    The article is very superficial, after reading it I still don´t even know why Booba was angry a with her to begin with. Anyone got the details of this story?

      spurred on by a campaign by the French rapper Booba against “thieving influencers”.

      First sentence. He’s accusing her of stealing material, though it’s unclear what or why, and why she was targeted.

        That first sentence just illustrates what I criticized. What material? How and when did she supposedly steal it? What exactly were the accusations made by Booba? How did she react when the accusations were made? The article obviously raises more questions than it answers and that is exactly what I meant when I called it superficial.

          It is superficial. More like a news agency trying to catch the news rather than write it.
