Tiffany Chan Unveils the Hidden Challenges of Content Creation in New Article

Tiffany Chan, Ed.D. introduces an informative new article to her Tiffany’s Secret Diary page, “The Unseen Struggles of being a Content Creator: My Battle with Copyright Infringement, Impersonation, and the Cost of Protection”.

In the revealing piece, Chan dives into the often-overlooked ups and downs of being a content creator, as well as the emotional and financial toll of protecting her work from rampant content theft and online impersonation.

“Content creation is more than a full-time job for me. It’s planning for weeks in advance, staying on top of trends in everything from fashion to music, and learning tools to create captivating content that generates stellar engagement, all while balancing multiple platforms, followers and fans,” she writes of her profession.

“I love what I do. I genuinely have never been happier with my career, and there are many perks to reaching each new level in the world of creation. I certainly didn’t expect when I created my first public post on TikTok in 2020 that I’d be making the kind of living I am now for myself and family. But, there is a price to pay.”

Chan also shares how she’s had to navigate the exhausting process of filing takedown requests and working with content protection companies, all while balancing her creative work. “Discovering that my content has been stolen is more than frustrating—it’s heartbreaking. Frankly, I feel intellectually and personally violated…

“This theft doesn’t just undermine my efforts; it poses a significant level of risk to anyone who uses social media at all. It also dilutes my brand because now, my original content is associated with fraud.”

She also highlights the need for stronger protections in place for creators. “The current systems designed to protect content creators like myself simply aren’t enough. As platforms evolve, so too must the laws and policies that protect our intellectual property. Social media platforms and websites need to take a more proactive approach to preventing content theft and impersonation rather than relying on creators to police their own content.”
