Social media influencer 'Mr.R' held a cash giveaway event in Taipei's Xinyi District that attracted nearly a thousand people scrambling for money, leading to a commotion and subsequently being referred to the police for endangering public safety. Despite causing chaos and disturbances, existing laws are inadequate to penalize influencers unless injury or criminal activity is involved. The incident raised concerns about the need for updated regulations as influencers skirt the legal boundaries to attract followers, with 'Mr.R' facing potential charges for the incident and 'Bacon' fined for distributing fake currency.
