In a Bucharest courtroom, the arc of a social media empire bent sharply toward accountability as Romanian judges rejected Andrew Tate's second appeal against detention, holding the influencer and his brother until at least late February on suspicion of organised crime and human trafficking. The case, involving four defendants including two Romanian women, reflects a broader reckoning with the question of whether the reach of online celebrity can outpace the reach of the law. Courts, it seems, are offering their answer slowly but consistently.
