Streamer NICKMERCS challenges strangers flying drones over his home FaZe Clan, FreepikPopular Fortnite streamer and YouTuber Nick \u201cNICKMERCS\u201d Kolcheff is known for his console play and hilarious antics \u2013 but this content creator doesn\u2019t mess around when it comes to personal space. Despite his nearly three million Twitch followers, NICKMERCS knows that internet fame comes with drawbacks, after allegedly being stalked by strangers flying drones over his home. NICKMERCS posted a Tweet on the subject on August 11, challenging the as yet unknown pilots with an unmasked threat. 600\u201cTo whoever is flying drones over my house\u2026 you better fuckin\u2019 hope I don\u2019t catch you,\u201d he wrote. NICKMERCS\u2019 fanbase quickly jumped to the streamer\u2019s defense, both making jokes about the situation and expressing sympathy toward the unfortunate situation. To whoever is flying drones over my house\u2026 you better fuckin\u2019 hope I don\u2019t catch you. \u2014 Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) August 11, 2019 \u201c1000% why I would never want to be a streamer,\u201d one user wrote. \u201cPeople are assholes and can\u2019t respect a person\u2019s privacy.\u201d Read More: Call of Duty pro Doug \u201cCensor\u201d Martin experienced a similar occurrence in October 2018, after CCTV footage caught two strangers trespassing on his property. \u201cIt looks like she went right inside of my garage, which really freaks me out,\u201d Censor said of the footage, later claiming that he hoped to buy a new home to avoid potential break-ins. Even YouTube king Felix \u201cPewDiePie\u201d Kjellberg has been the victim of stalkers, having moved several times due to fans finding his home address. \u201cI\u2019ve even had parents coming over with their kids,\u201d Kjellberg said of the issue in a 2016 video. \u201c\u2026Just because you found my address doesn\u2019t mean you found an invitation for you to come over.\u201d While it\u2019s unclear what the drone pilots in NICKMERCS\u2019 case hope to achieve, there\u2019s no denying that flying such machines (which are capable of capturing camera footage) over someone\u2019s house is a major invasion of privacy and a seriously gross offense, no matter how famous someone may be. –<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
