Taylor Swift faced constant harassment from an alleged stalker who was arrested after repeatedly trying to enter her apartment complex in New York City. The man was seen surveying her dwelling, even returning after his initial arrest, causing alarm among residents. The incident highlights the potential dangers faced by celebrities and the need for effective security measures and collaborative efforts between law enforcement, private security forces, and alert civilians. It also raises questions about the intrusive nature of fame and the constant public scrutiny that comes with it.
The South African Supreme Court of Appeal has ruled that exhibiting the old South African flag in public is a form of hate speech, unfair discrimination based on race, and harassment following equality legislation. The decision comes after nationwide demonstrations by Afriforum, a group that played a leading role in the Black Monday protests highlighting the murders of farmers. The old flag was displayed during these demonstrations, prompting the Nelson Mandela Foundation Trust (NMFT) to file a complaint against Afriforum.
