An alleged affair caught on camera at a Coldplay concert went viral on TikTok, and the couple got doxxed. When does online sleuthing go too far?

Ex-Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot were caught canoodling in a new video from the July 16 Coldplay concert. A new clip shared by a fan shows the pair packing on the PDA from a different angle, before they were caught on the kiss cam.

Never before in history has one mistake, one moment, one stupid word or selfish deed or bad choice had the power to tear apart lives and to devastate peoples’ worlds. To err is human – but for someone to film that erring and share it and have it so noxiously trend is decidedly 2025.

“Kristin Cabot is no longer with Astronomer, she has resigned,” an Astronomer spokesperson confirmed to CNBC. Andy Byron, the former CEO who was seen with his arms around Cabot at the concert, had resigned Sunday. Astronomer confirmed the news on its LinkedIn page.

The public is mostly having fun with the scandal, reenacting the incident on social media, The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, and at multiple sporting events; it’s been used in a relatively lighthearted way for film promotion and as a gag at other concerts.
