Stalking is sadly becoming an increasing and serious problem for content creators, particularly for women. Female stars from across the streaming platforms have shared their horrifying ordeals with obsessed fans. One of the most prolific of which was that of Amouranth, who was left \u2018fearing for her life\u2019 after a stranger traveled from Estonia to her home and livestreamed his entire experience. Now, Amouranth has opened up about her dealings with stalkers alongside her fellow streamers DizzyKitten, BrookeAB, and Max Gonzalez. Yet, they also worry that very little can be done to solve the issue. Amouranth claims stalking \u201ccomes with the territory\u201d Speaking to The New York Times, Amouranth spoke more about her experiences throughout May-July 2022 with an obsessed fan who sold all of his possessions to find her. \u201cIn livestreams, they see into your home, into your bedroom, and it feels very personal with them,\u201d She claimed. \u201cI think that is what contributes to a lot of the stalking: They feel like they know you.\u201d In the lead-up to the terrifying event, Amouranth took a series of measures to protect herself including hiring security guards, instaling security cameras all around her property, and keeping police informed of the stalker\u2019s every move. However, Amouranth is at a loss as to how she could possibly boost up her security. She added: \u201cI don\u2019t know what else to do at this point, besides build a moat with crocodiles.\u201d 100 Thieves streamer BrookeAB, who currently has 1.3 million followers on Twitch, also spoke about her experience dealing with harassers who doxxed her online. She even had to cancel her trip to Coachella after harassers threatened to \u201cset her house on fire.\u201d Whereas, Twitch creator DizzyKitten claimed that one stalker managed to track down her home address after professing his love for her. She subsequently \u201cbarricaded\u201d herself in a room with a gun. Twitch have since made numerous pledges to do more to protect streamers from such attacks. However, Brooke believes that ultimately platforms \u201cjust don\u2019t have any clue of what to do.\u201d Despite the traumatic events, Amouranth claimed she wouldn\u2019t change her career for the world. She added that, sadly, such experiences come \u201cwith the territory\u201d of being a woman online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
