I think everyone was in the wrong in this case. The amount of YouTube recommendations I got from everyone from the Sun/Sky News/The Guardian/etc... for a non-development daily on this story was ludicrous. Every breaking news alert push notification too.
These are people's lives. Can't imagine what the family had to deal with, with on top of that all the TikTokkers and amateur detectives (was not aware that was happening but that is shameful).
At the end of the day, we are all complicit. They do it because it rates well on TV and sells more papers. It's capitalism after all. Why stop (if within OFCOM or whichever regulatory agency's remit) if it sells well despite how distasteful a story is?
