Look who tagged along

You’ve been tagged. But you wish you hadn’t. Because now, there’s the obligation of liking, reposting or otherwise acknowledging what you’d rather have ignored. Orworse, un-tagging yourself, and feeling almost like you’re cutting ties with the tagger. Nobody asked for this! Here’s what to do, as tagger and tagged, with helpfrom those who’ve been there.

Be picky. No one wants to be tagged in a group photo unless they're in it. "It's only okay if they're related to the event," says musician Rishab Rikhiram Sharma. X and Instagram allow users to set filters on who can tag them in posts and pictures. Karan Pherwani, vice-president at Chtrbox, which handles socials for content creators, suggests activating these filters to weed out advertisers and strangers.

This week, we're...

The Insta-based service sells concert video footage, so customers can pretend that they were at the Maroon 5 gig, or paid ₹30,000 for Dil-Luminati seats. For ₹99, you can also be tagged in a concert video by a cool “friend”, or get a clip that you can repost. Now, if there’s more buzz online than at the venue, you know why.
