“Oh Yeah, He Does That”

As Laura* was beginning a career in artist management at a major London agency, she had to balance the new, 24-hour commitment with a personal issue: being stalked online by the friend of a friend. When she eventually went to the police, they told her to remove photos from social media and keep a “quiet” profile online. Around the same time, her agency was rebranding and wanted to put her photo on their new website’s staff directory. She relayed the police’s advice to her colleagues. Her photo went on online anyway. Recently, she told me their response was, “Oh, what’s the worst that can happen?”
