When Fans Go Too Far

When fans go too far: PewDiePie, ‘stan stunts’, and YouTube’s next big problem

I mentioned this before, in the last LWIAY (actually PewDiePie mentioned it, because I am just Oopsie Doopsie and I am not supposed to give my own personal opinion). This article by the Telegraph attacking me and my fans for being “problematic” came out the exact same day that we raised $250,000 for CRY, the Indian charity to prevent child labor.

I usually ignore this kind of stuff, but I just thought it was crazy how they posted this at the same time. However, you have to PAY to read this article and I would never bother to pay for it. Nevertheless, some of you sent me a screenshot of it, and it’s hilarious.

It talked about the “Subscribe to PewDiePie” hack and how the hacker, as they mentioned it, HackerGiraffe, is rumored to be only 9 years old…

It seems so many people fall for the “9-year-old” meme and I love it.

Anyway, that’s all I have to say.
