Why Live-Streaming Apps Are The Creepiest Form Of Following (Video)

by Kelley Lord

You think the Internet can't get any creepier, and then it tops itself.

Apps like Periscope and Meerkat make it easy to live-stream yourself to your family, friends and any stranger who feels like anonymously staring at you.

Allowing anyone to know what you're doing and where you are in real time may be the coolest and creepiest app idea yet.

What makes live-streaming apps interactive is anyone watching can comment and have his or her comments read in real time. While this takes us back to our Chatroulette days, we hope it doesn't become the next camgirl gateway drug.

While live broadcasting is so in right now, this week's episode has been pre-recorded for your enjoyment and safety.
