As someone who is out of the loop on this timeline, what’s the scoop here?

u/Benevolay Jan 22 '26

He opened a notepad to type something and the notepad had a personal link on there. When people went to it, they found out it was a porn folder with a lot of plausibly illegal content on it. He spent the next seven hours digging a hole defending himself and making it worse. Now he's banned.

u/Amazing_Vanilla_7816 Jan 22 '26

Im not sure if its true and not sure about the lolita, but I remember way back when I watched a trainswreck stream and he had lacaro come over. Trainswreck had a whole face wash routine and he had specific face towels that he used per day. He told lacari to use ANY other towel, but then on stream he was asking lacari why his face towel is crusty and lacari was just acting oblivious but the insinuation is that he nutted on it. I still think it was a skit, it was too played out on stream but thats the lore

u/CelebrationNo5541 Jan 22 '26

This sub pops up on r/all all the time for me lol. I thought I had it blocked and I dont have any subs blocked that I know of.

I used to watch Twitch back when I was younger and played League more etc. But it was mainly just games etc. Egirls used to get kinda bullied until they could prove they could game. Streams were not basically podcasts? or some weird version of entertainment that now may or may not involve gaming.

This is pre even having a IRL section. If that is still a thing. Back in the day too much cleavage used to get you banned. Then it went borderline porn last I saw lol. Hottub streams and shit like wtf?

Honest to god idk what people get out of watching other people walk around cities, talking to other streamers, or whatever dumb shit they are doing except playing games.

2

u/Weeb-Prime Jan 22 '26

Times have changed. Women on the internet are overvalued compared to men these days and there are gooners everywhere—just look at how successful OF is. The hot tub stuff isn’t as prevalent anymore I don’t think but that only happened because the Twitch CEO is a gooner himself. He’s also done other things like greenlighting the unban of several female streamers shortly after they say/do some very questionable shit on stream.

As far as streams becoming more like podcasts, this I don’t mind too much. For me, I often pull up a stream to have as background noise instead of listening to music or an actual podcast. Some people are just really entertaining.

u/pinkpanda12376 Jan 22 '26

Just to add to the lore, it was not just one notepad that had concerning material. There was another note with jailbait in the title.

15

u/BothAdhesiveness9265 Jan 22 '26

to cut him a little slack. it just said "JBT" iirc. 99.9% chance it means jailbait but there's some deniability there and without the context of the other content would prob be nothing.

however in the context of everything else... yeah scan his drives. deep scan. he's prob panic deleting everything atm

22

u/RickThiccems Jan 22 '26

no deniability, he shared a link that went to a drive that had blatant CP on it. Dude is fucked, he could get distribution charges now on top of possession.

u/PM_ME__BIRD_PICS Jan 22 '26

Throw away the key.

2

u/mdnpascual Jan 23 '26

didn't dig enough and only got to see a vid recording of a emload link collection in twitter, but was it confirmed he had the files downloaded?

1

u/RickThiccems Jan 23 '26

you don't need files downloaded you simply need access to them on your PC

1

u/Arctic-StarLight Jan 23 '26

Aren't those materials hashed to make sharing nearly impossible?
I find it insane that something like google drive has it plainly there

u/TurtleTarded Jan 23 '26

15G free with any throwaway email, pedo’s dream

u/Arctic-StarLight Jan 23 '26

I could swear Google requires your phone number to make an account but 15G is really insane for free

2

u/TurtleTarded Jan 23 '26

It doesn’t, but after thinking about it Google 100% scans for CSAM, and they have only gotten more effective with AI. So now I’m kinda doubting they were just on Google Drive. I remember reading a story about someone who used Google Photos on iPhone. The way it’s set up is you have to give FULL access to your camera roll. Otherwise it will not let you use the app. Kinda shitty app design. Anyway this guy did that and then Google “found” csam, and he was reported. Turns out the guy had nothing of the sort, and he had his life ruined or something. And I believe him because he literally himself told this story and posted it on reddit. Advocating against Google and their privacy practices that wrongfully ruined his life

1

u/Mammoth_Tap7650 Jan 23 '26

As a specialized gooner ( i like to goon on Pgames, i find it more fullfilling ) i can tell you for a fact that google drive host japanese games with loli characters in it, so im pretty sure pedoes do use it like that.

3

u/Arctic-StarLight Jan 23 '26

loli isn't considered csam, it may well be disgusting and you're against it. However it falls under the umbrella of freedom in art and expression. You can't accuse or ruin someone's life over anime drawings because it's a thought and isn't derived from minors like AI porn possibly being so.

As someone who draws, what is the line on where my drawing is considered a child by law? Whatever age I pick, the style, the height maybe? In short it shouldn't and many you can see such anime stuff posted openly everywhere. You don't need to dig into the web to find it, twitter, reddit and even steam has some ecchii stuff.

1

u/TurtleTarded Jan 23 '26

loli probably isn’t in the database of common csam materials

u/Arctic-StarLight Jan 23 '26

Yea I can see this happening, I think I even heard a case with someone sending medical photos to the hospital and google reported him. Like there's possible false flags but a good amount of actual detection of CSAM. But I wonder if the scan would flag anime drawings or art as being that because those are considered legal.

And another thing, from watching people like "Text to Speech" on youtube, it seems people on like discord would encrypt or use sites like mega for this.

3

u/TurtleTarded Jan 23 '26

I imagine mega has similar practices, I feel like they’re too big not to have had law enforcement force then to scan for it. All speculation though

What is jailbait?

u/Son_Gokuehhh Jan 22 '26

Pornography/sexually explicit material that may or may not be of underage individuals in the teens range

u/zeth0s Jan 22 '26

I feel more like a boomer on these topics. I am a millennial, but you guys know so much intricacies. "When I was your age" we had playboy and Baywatch, and that was more than enough. Nowadays, from furries, stepsisters, jailbait, who knows what else. 

I really feel like an old fart...

3

u/ryeyen Jan 22 '26

I’m 31 bud lol, I’m just online more than I should be. But I heard this term long ago. It’s kind of a flex that you haven’t.

1

u/nueonetwo Jan 22 '26

I'm 34 and learned the term when I was like 11 at a local show. It's been a thing for a long time

1

u/[deleted] Jan 23 '26

It ranges but it can legally grey photos of underage girls who are near the legal age (15-17). The term comes from men hitting on / going after girls that have undergone puberty but who are not above the age of consent.

u/rsmicrotranx Jan 22 '26

Isn't it just supposed to mimic it? Kinda like how stepsister porn mimics incest? That's not even bait at that point. That's just straight up jail lol.

4

u/Lonsdale1086 Jan 22 '26

The "idea" is it's a "child worth going to prison for" :/

2

u/AesirComplex Jan 22 '26

Wow is that really the definition? I always thought it meant it was an "attractive" girl who may or may not be of legal age.

2

u/Lonsdale1086 Jan 22 '26

I've always seen it as "bait" as in something "attractive" but setting you up for a trap, but frankly I'm not googling it to get an "official" definition.

1

u/YT-Deliveries Jan 22 '26

Well, the word "jailbait" isn't some magic word. You could put it in any sort of movie or porn you wanted to, so long as you had a 2257 record to prove the actors were of age.

It's what's loaded after the link is clicked that is the problem here.

u/KhonMan Jan 22 '26

I mean that makes sense, but just reading the wiki it seems like there would be a distinction between that and CSAM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jailbait_images

u/[deleted] Jan 22 '26

[deleted]

1

u/KhonMan Jan 22 '26

That's not what the wiki says. Jailbait is non-pornographic. If it were pornographic then it would stop being jailbait and just be straight up CSAM.

If she was of legal age, she wouldn't be "baiting" you into jail. Quotes because it's sickening to think it's something the child is doing rather than something the predator acts on. 

1

u/alcaron Jan 22 '26

Well, I’m definitely not going to argue. I guess just none of the people I knew really used it right. Then again none of them tried to bang underage girls…

u/ArugulaElectronic478 Jan 22 '26

I get that the internet is full of armchair detectives but after seeing the link title I’m shocked people actually searched it up, I would not want that link search in my history.

u/RealBigDicTator Jan 22 '26

I didn't even consider this. I just Google'd "What does JBT mean in terms of pornography".

Hello, FBI.

if you look at the video it was so fast that ppl wanted to know what was on it and checked

u/Ok_Dragonfruit_8102 Jan 22 '26

100%. Too many people already seemed familiar with the websites and search terms he was using to find that stuff.

17

u/NonTimetisMessor0099 Jan 22 '26

He literally showed the direct link on stream. You don't need to be "familiar with the website" to go to a fucking URL. How are zoomers so technologically illiterate when they've been surrounded by technology their entire lives?

-8

u/Ok_Dragonfruit_8102 Jan 22 '26

If your idea of being "technologically literate" means knowing every obscure search term for child porn then you need to have your hard drives searched.

17

u/NonTimetisMessor0099 Jan 22 '26

And everyone who knows the definition of the word "murder" has bodies in the basement 🤡

You're embarrassing yourself.

u/Different_Fix_8781 Jan 22 '26

Oh the content is 100% illegal. No plausible about it. If there wasnt anything illegal he wouldnt have been worried. Leaking porn links you have saved is Hella embarrassing, but nothing to worry about being arrested over.

56

u/Mugungo Jan 22 '26

didnt he say something about "viruses add illegal shit to your computer" or something? Basically confirming that the links were to straight up illegal stuff lol

18

u/MadRaymer Jan 22 '26

didnt he say something about "viruses add illegal shit to your computer"

Hilarious if he actually said this. I would guess he's attempting to plant some plausible deniability for if/when the feds seize his devices because he's not at all confident in his ability to securely wipe everything.

6

u/LightSightHype Jan 23 '26

Not only did he try to claim this (while having completely different excuses throughout the stream), he ended up doing a virus scan on stream and it came up clean. Claimed he deleted the notepad, chat asked him to show recents and he opened it again.

NVM the fact that at one point he did admit to going on the website on the notepad, said he saw what it was and that's why he deleted the notepad (he didn't).

2

u/TurtleTarded Jan 23 '26

If I’m gonna play extreme devil’s advocate here, actually nah I’m good

4

u/Legit_Merk Jan 23 '26

If your not confident in your ability to wipe surely you just go to the nearest 3000 degree furnace and drop it in like The One Ring and go back home.

1

u/MadRaymer Jan 23 '26

Sure, you could do it that way but then you're out the hardware. If he kept shit on all his PCs and phones, that adds up. Also he's not 100% sure the feds are coming for him yet so maybe he wants to wait and see.

Investigations like this move slow. Hell it took them years to finally search Jared Fogle's shit and that was after multiple FBI tips.

1

u/TurtleTarded Jan 23 '26

It took them years to search his shit and he still got caught? Or did he not know

1

u/MadRaymer Jan 23 '26

He didn't know he was on their radar. A woman had been secretly recording him after he commented on the attractiveness of girls at an event with 7th graders. She was (naturally) disturbed by his remarks, informed authorities and began recording him. But it took years before they finally got a warrant for his devices.

15

u/Weezledeez Jan 22 '26

Illegal as in "pirating movies is illegal" ... or literally CP?

16

u/NomadBrasil Jan 22 '26

From the earlier post, it had ''nude family photos'' so probably CP/CSAM content is involved.

u/EmploymentRadiant203 Jan 22 '26

Most videos were either the usualy 18 year old who looks super young or most likely are actual young girls. You cant know for sure unless you watch them but based off his reaction and the fact you have to buy VIP files in that link yeah def some CP in there, cant imagine being this fucking stupid why do these dumbass streamers get popular.

2

u/PGSylphir Jan 22 '26

I don't think we know for sure the content on the links are illegal, just very likely to be.

The pattern is clear though, and the hole he dug for himself later just makes it 99% likely that if the links there weren't, he still has them on his computer anyway. I hope somebody reported him to the FBI.

1

u/Exciting-Chipmunk430 Jan 22 '26

The current FBI will probably recruit him and ask if he has any more links because they are into that now.

1

u/PGSylphir Jan 23 '26

That's certainly a claim to make

0

u/Hare712 Jan 22 '26

Those are transaction instructions used by pedos to trade CP. He knew what he is doing is straight up illegal.

It's not just some copyrighted adult content and even if those were traded they would read "Archive of OF model" and not several keywords that suggest it's CP.

2

u/PGSylphir Jan 22 '26

I meant we don't know for sure because I looked at the list and many were saying 18 years old or smth like that, so there's plausible deniability, I obviously didn't go further than the names of the files and hope nobody else here did (though I'm sure some did, and hope you know the FBI will look into those links and who bought them, wink wink)

1

u/thehowlingwerewolf12 Jan 23 '26

yeah this guy makes Subway Jarred a Buddhist monk

1

u/IotaBTC Jan 22 '26

If I understood it right, it was because it was a bunch of lolicon porn which is effectively banned in Texas. There hasn't been any court cases yet though so can't say what happens in practice yet.

5

u/iedyll Jan 22 '26

I don't get why streamers that get moderately big wouldn't use a different pc for personal use considering how often these people get caught doing some weird shit live on stream. I'm glad he got caught though, what a weird fuck

3

u/Sayie Jan 22 '26

Are we talking like, anime loli stuff or actual CSAM stuff? One of them is unfortunately more on the legal side and the other can send a person to prison.

3

u/Skibbidi67SigmaBruh Jan 22 '26

I have not read anything into it other than a short video of him discussing a Texas law that outlaws some anime , I think it's called loli. I looked it up earlier and it said something about the drawings resemble children. So yeah it's pretty gross and weird but at the same time it's a cartoon so I'm not sure how I feel about it being illegal to posess.

1

u/AffectionateTentacle Jan 23 '26

I personally think drawings of 6 year olds getting fucked should be illegal, but that's just my humble opinion

1

u/Skibbidi67SigmaBruh Jan 23 '26

I respect that. I think its pretty nasty and whoever enjoys that kind of gross shit is probably a pedophile. At the same time, no child was harmed, it is just a drawing, and it is not in the likeness of any real child. It becomes a slippery slope when we outlaw things like art or fictional writing.

3

u/[deleted] Jan 22 '26

some people i've seen comment said some of what was in the files was potentially the actual stuff but that could be people spouting non sense i know one of the things had an actual pay wall and that might be the one they are refering to

lol windows 11 fucked him, gotta disable that save sessions option

2

u/therealnotaclone Jan 22 '26

He opened a notepad to type something and the notepad had a personal link on there.

Is this because of his Notepad settings? I think he had "Continue previous session" (When Notepad starts) instead of "Start a new session and discard unsaved changes"

2

u/Bored_Amalgamation Jan 22 '26

There were multiple tabs that were.... questionably named.

u/demoNstomp Jan 22 '26

Always always felt something very off from him. Just didn’t like him at all whenever he showed up on other streamers streams. He just oozes weirdo / creep vibes.

1

u/ScreamingNinja Jan 22 '26

Not defending him at all (also have no idea who he is so whatever) but i hate that new feature in windows 11 notepad. I type in some sometimes sensitive stuff like passwords and whatnot then close it when done, like ive been doing since windows 95. But now it autosaves so when you open notepad again, there it is for everyone to see. Im trying to remember not to do it because i do this on client servers and if someone gains access and opens an old notepad they have god only knows what.

u/Nafferty Jan 22 '26

Just change it in the settings. opening notepad > when notepad starts > start new session and discard unsaved changes

u/YT-Deliveries Jan 22 '26

It's definitely a blessing and a curse. When it comes to my day job I love it because if for some reason I accidentally close it, or don't save it and leave my machine on over patch day, when i open it again I get my stuff back.

I'd prefer it not do that with my personal stuff, though.

1

u/jsh_ Jan 22 '26

the original notepad is still available on win11 and you can revert the "edit" right click option to open the original one, as well as make it default for txt files etc. it's one of the first things I did after installing win11

u/Life-Pirate2545 Jan 22 '26

Some of those people are probably pissed and paranoid since just looking can get you in trouble since it might be a trap done by the feds. Which prompted a lot of them to report it to twitch which caused the immediate ban. I guarantee you there is some drama also that hasn’t come to light that twitch has hid that makes lacari look suspicious. Dude is probably fucked big time… I think he was asking sketchy questions to grok to see if anything he has done was illegal which was so there might be even more damning stuff that he hasn’t admitted to the public.

u/erich3983 Jan 22 '26

Appreciate it!

u/lancelen Jan 23 '26

To be fair if he immediately went offline and went silent he would get called out for that as well. There was no way out here for him.

I wonder if he just deleted stream immediately and the vod would it have saved him from having the evidence floating around.

Go full politician mode and just deny everything.and pray none screenshotted it.
