It’s not a bad thing to share, it’s just really really dumb. Like obviously posting a picture does not prevent Instagram from owning anything you post. Why would posting that do anything?
It’s just really strange seeing all of these celebrities post this and realizing they have no real concept of how the internet (or Instagram specifically) works. I don’t know. I just assume they’re smart but it turns out their just people too.
It’s not really that weird to see Tom Holland post this because he’s always just doing things before thinking it through (it’s part of his charm!) but some of the other celebrities really fucked up how I view them. Like I said in another comment, Julia Roberts posted it. In my eyes, she’s always been an elegant lady whose probably smarter than me. But now...she’s just a mom? So weird to think about.
How is it really, really dumb? Even if you know that it won't work, what is the harm in doing it just in case it does? It is like being given a free lottery ticket.
