This ain’t mental illness. This is just business. They ain’t doing this social media shyt for fun, they building a following up to monetize em.

Don’t confuse these curating “influencers” with random chicks posting 10 selfies a day.
She has no case and she knows it
That's mental illness

I think the mental illness is that she doesn't know it.

The "original" thinks she's really creating something. But what she's pointing out is that they both model things by using the most basic, obvious pose available.

I imagine her momager is really the driver of this mental illness.

Also she appears to be pregnant but where's dude at? Declined to be a part of the story? Or kept hidden intentionally because of something questionable in his own story.

Lol this is bow the content creation game goes. It’s a low barrier to entry field. You find a successful model and a ton of clones will pop up.

Look at the Pop the Balloon show. There’s a ton of clones but Arlette was the original one and gets the most views because it’s the clear cut best one.
Arlette is actually one of the clones. She just got popular because of the polished production compared to the original ones that came before her

Readers Digest Version​

The Case:
Two Amazon influencers, Alyssa Sheil and Sydney Nicole Gifford, are embroiled in a lawsuit over allegations of copyright infringement and misappropriation of likeness. Both women have built their careers on promoting Amazon products through social media, particularly focusing on a minimalistic, neutral aesthetic.

The Dispute:

Gifford accuses Sheil of copying her content, including specific video frames, product promotions, and even her appearance. She claims this copying has led to a significant drop in her earnings. Sheil denies these allegations, arguing that the neutral aesthetic is not unique to Gifford and that many influencers promote similar products due to Amazon's recommendations.

Background:

Both influencers live in homes decorated with a predominantly beige and neutral color scheme, which is a popular trend among young women online. They have similar online personas and styles, often referred to as the "clean girl" aesthetic.

Legal Implications:

The lawsuit raises questions about the protectability of influencer content under copyright law. Experts argue that proving copyright infringement will be challenging because the imagery is relatively banal and not uniquely creative. The case could set a precedent for how intellectual property is treated in the influencer industry.

Racial Dynamics:
The lawsuit also touches on racial dynamics, with Gifford accusing Sheil, a Black Latina woman, of misappropriating her likeness. This aspect highlights broader issues of representation and identity in the predominantly white influencer industry.

Industry Context:

The influencer industry lacks clear regulations and norms, leading to frequent disputes over content ownership and originality. Social platforms like TikTok and Instagram exacerbate these issues by promoting homogeneity through algorithms that favor trending content.

Outcome:
A judge has allowed Gifford's case to proceed, but the outcome remains uncertain. The case could have significant implications for how influencers create content and how intellectual property is protected in this field.

Key Points​

  • Similar Aesthetic: Both influencers have a neutral, minimalistic home decor style.
  • Allegations: Gifford accuses Sheil of copying her content and appearance.
  • Denial: Sheil denies these allegations, citing common industry practices.
  • Legal Challenges: Proving copyright infringement is difficult due to the generic nature of influencer content.
  • Racial Dynamics: The lawsuit involves accusations of misappropriation of likeness between women of different racial backgrounds.
  • Industry Impact: The case could set a precedent for intellectual property protection in the influencer industry.
