Default Thoughts on online crowdfunding

When people make gofundme pages, or the equivalent, to ask people to donate because they are unable to afford something.

Now I'm not talking about it being used to fundraise for events for charities (that's a different matter)

I'm talking about grown people asking strangers for money

Maybe they're ill, or a family member is ill, and needs a medical device

Maybe they've been made homeless and are looking for a way out

Maybe they just want a new laptop and can't afford one

Do you think this is begging and shouldn't be allowed, or do you think that if you have the support then why not?
