As the following of so-called “COVID vigilantes”–that is, social media accounts targeting and identifying queer folk attending large gatherings over the holidays in violation of COVID-19 safety guidelines–continues to grow, news magazine Good Morning America has posed an important question: when does calling out behavior go too far?

Reporter Gio Benitez highlighted the ongoing movement on January 5, in a special report that spotlighted several incidents involving queer people. That includes the now-infamous “COVID Titanic,” a floating circuit party in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico that sank, scattering attendees into the sea. The report also featured the Gays Over COVID social media accounts, which highlights reckless partying on the part of gay men.
