Dr. DisRespect - Shots Fired over twitch

in #gaming6 years ago (edited)

Main-stream Twitch Pro-Gamer "Dr. Disrespect" was seen streaming competitive Call of Duty over a seemly unsecured internet connection this past week. A malicious internet troll used his ISP to locate his home address during a recent live stream, firing multiple rounds of ammunition at the front of his house shattering his window, scaring the hell out of him and his family.

Here is the un-edited stream that originally aired on Sept. 11. The shots fired at his house were close enough to be heard in the video.

If you aren't using a VPN (Virtual Private Network)

your location is vulnerable.

Any content producer, controversial or not, needs to keep their internet connection safe. The more successful you become, the more you will find jealous people following you, eventually creating unsafe circumstances to that of Dr. DisRespect.

I suggest NordVPN. They occasionally have a 3 years for $100 deal that randomly pops-up, but overall they offer reliable security on multiple platforms with very easy to follow setup. If you value your privacy, I encourage you give a VPN service a try.
Just because you aren't as famous as Dr. Disrespect doesn't mean you aren't at risk. Your location can be used by phone scammers and email scammers and social media uses it to give you specialized advertising pertaining to you. If you respect yours safety at all, do what Dr. DisRespect "Should" have done and used a VPN.
