/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>>13697920
TL;DR: Both VShojo and Nux are retarded.

Some underage faggots from a third-world shithole (Brazil purportedly based on IPs) buy the website vshojo.org, because apparently VShojo didn't.

They send emails to indie vtubers trying to trick them into believing VShojo wants them to join. They send official-looking contracts, from an official-looking email. Textbook phishing.

They phish Sakii Nightshade into giving her personal info, leading to her being doxxed and swatted. They almost get Nux Taku too. Sakii and Nux notify VShojo.

VShojo eventually gets the registrar to revoke the vshojo.org domain, and law enforcement determines which emails were sent from vshojo.org. They confirm the only phishing victims from vshojo.org are Nux and Sakii.

VShojo chooses NOT to put out a PSA about phishers trying to impersonate them for doxxing/swatting. VShojo says the gang doing the doxxing and swatting have also been harassing the VShojo girls for months, and claimed making this public would give them notoriety and potentially embolden them to swat more and harass more.

This was considered a retarded move, because the attackers could just buy new domains like vshojo.co and continue doxxing and swatting. So VShojo didn't really stop the threat, and they had no way of knowing if any more people were attacked until it was too late.

It's not like underage faggots in Brazil were realistically going to be arrested for cybercrime. It's also not like indie vtubers had the resources to fight doxxing and swatting either, and swatting can kill. So this looked more like a move from VShojo to save face that threw indie vtubers under the bus.

Nux does his own investigation, but gets tricked by the attacker like a fucking dumbass, and gets mostly bullshit info. He doesn't realize this.

Nux tells VShojo on Discord he wants to make a video about his experiences. He says the public needs to know (which is fair), but his video ends up containing a shitload of inaccuracies and makes himself look like a hero instead of the dumbass he is.

The VShojo cybersecurity guy warns him that they don't want this to go public for the above reasons. But the guy ends up saying, "I am not saying this as a criticism of whether or not you should do a video, that is entirely your right to do so as a victim and we don't have a problem with that".

This wishy-washy sentence was also considered a retarded move, because it made it unclear whether they were really okay with the video going forward or not. Nux took this as permission as long as he didn't mention any names to give notoriety, but GunRun later ends up saying this wasn't permission.

Nux shows the video to the VShojo cybersecurity guy and requests feedback. He points out issues (e.g. unredacted names, inaccuracies), but Nux only fixes some of them, mostly the redactions. He still believes he wasn't tricked, so he keeps those incorrect parts in the video, like a dumbass.

The cybersecurity guy drafts a VShojo official statement to go along with Nux's video. All through this process, the cybersecurity guy keeps thanking Nux, and calls his video a "public service announcement". The video goes live, and VShojo tweet replies to Nux, publicly thanking him and linking to pic related, which is VShojo's original public statement.

Soon after, Nyanners posts this message to her public Discord, complaining about the video and asking him to take it down.

The other VShojo girls similarly turn on him.

Some DMs between Nux and Froot.

VShojo official soon deletes their tweet reply thanking Nux. They post an updated public statement.

Nux resists taking down the video at first, but after a while he relents as most of the public is against him, and takes down the video after around 1.5 days.

He eventually issues a public apology.

This apology video reveals the Discord messages showing most of the above info, but mainly the messages that led Nux to believe he had permission and the messages showing he asked the cybersecurity guy for review. This turns the public back in his favor.

The public is also starting to get the sense that indie vtubers were thrown under the bus.

The official statement from VShojo which they've since deleted.

Because realistically the culprits were never going to get arrested.

They're underage faggots from the third-world shithole that is Brazil, getting prosecuted for cybercrimes in the US. Even the original official statement from VShojo that they later deleted (pic related) acknowledges issues trying to prosecute.

Also the VShojo cybersecurity guy reviewed Nux's video, and didn't ask him to redact the parts about OnlyFans or the username sharing. That's verifiable in the screenshot at >>13637331 when he gave feedback.

Her family still live there retard, that's where her dad is buried, she is the one who moved
>they didn't give the okay to publish
The CEO literally watched the video, asked for an edit, got it, and then said it's good to go and thanked Nux in the first tweet and in the public statement had apologized to him

>>13624232
Pic related, the original statement from VShojo (that they've now deleted) confirms some of the gang are underage, and the country's legal framework is "outdated" making it hard to perform an arrest. The Brazil thing came based on an IP address.

What they put out originally, retards. Keep up!

The company you are defending said there were way more than 2 victims, answer why they said this and why you are trying to erase the victims

you are a snake

This isn't that hard to find, lads

>Our first priority is a successful arrest
I don't give a fuck about this literally who and vshoujo but vshoujo deserves death and punishment for such blantant disregard for cybersecurity of others. Focusing on the arrest is a clear sign of a lack of respect for the people who are being targeted by this. Whether the who is a faggot is irrelevant to the fact he unironically did more good than vshoujo did for the situation.

>reading the damage control second statement
Nux said he personally talked to 12 different people that got doxxed.

The doxxbin itself had atleast 3 people because nyanners keeps trying to shill that her decade old doxx was on there.

Delete you post.

>>13481052
Funny how they post this after deleting this earlier post from their official twitter account.

Here is where they try deflecting, their cyber security team did nothing and all it did was put more people at risk by keeping it silent

>>13446927
Not defamation, but fucking with an active investigation. Someone at Vshojo, in their infinite wisdom, decided to publicly thank Nux, while also responding to his tweet of the video with pic related. Read the 4th paragraph to see the Vshojo actually disapproves of Nux posting the video.

So in order to avoid swatting, does 911 center know the addresses of the girls?

>>13370150
Can we forgive Nux for his moments of autism and actually thank him for doing actually good things for our girls?
