It came after a video by fellow VTuber Nux Taku went viral, but was quickly condemned by the group\u2019s talent. The VTuber community has been divided over a recent Nux Taku video which exposed a group of doxxers impersonating as VShojo, sending out emails to other streamers to get personal information and eventually \u201cswat\u201d them. The video, which went live on November 23, detailed how VShojo knew about the doxxing for a number of weeks but didn\u2019t publicly tell anyone. Nux also \u201couted\u201d the doxxers to try and warn other VTubers, and said he wanted \u201cto really make this public despite people telling me not to.\u201d However, the video was criticized by many. VShojo claimed the video could have tipped off the doxxers, and they were only given 30 minutes to draft a statement in response.

The streamers were not consulted before the video went live, they added. He initially said \u201cVShojo threw indie VTubers under the best to protect themselves,\u201d but quickly deleted that statement. \u201cI got swatted once in the past and it scarred me. People die in these situations. When I brought [the doxxing] to the attention of VShojo, they told me they knew this was going on for a while. They never said anything publicly, and as a result I felt like VShojo put me and others at risk,\u201d Nux explained in another statement after deleting the video. VShojo\u2019s stars spoke out publicly, but most of their statements have since been deleted. \u201cI\u2019m so disappointed in you and hurt that you are doing this when you know full well what truly was going on. We asked you to take it down. We told you we feared for our safety and you didn\u2019t care,\u201d Ironmouse said in reply to Nux. \u201cI\u2019m hurt Nux posted his doxxing video. He flagrantly disregarded our team\u2019s feelings and the facts our security department shared with him. I trusted and defended him, only to feel secondary to getting clicks,\u201d Projekt Melody said in a now-deleted tweet. However, VShojo reportedly told Nux Taku the organization \u2014 not necessarily their VTubers \u2014 \u201chad no problem\u201d publishing the video. He shared screenshots of their DMs with VShojo staff before the video\u2019s release to confirm this. Im so disappointed in you and hurt that you are doing this when you full well know what truly was going on. We asked you to take it down. We told you we feared for our safety and you didn&#8217;t care. \u2014 \ud83d\udc96ironmouse\ud83d\ude08VSHOJO\ud83d\udc96 (@ironmouse) November 24, 2021 Nux apologized for uploading the video, saying he acted as a \u201cbad friend\u201d towards the VShojo streamers by doing so. \u201cWhen I was asked to delete the video, I did not take people\u2019s feelings into account and I should have deleted it immediately. I messed up, and I was a bad friend,\u201d they said. \u201cI sincerely apologize for my actions, and lack thereof. I hope that I can work things out in private if I am given the chance but I understand if I\u2019m not.\u201d Read More: Hololive Generation 6, named holoX, revealed &#8211; VShojo streamer Froot apologized to Nux Taku for her statement following the video, and asked fans to stop harassing him: \u201cNux apologized to me privately yesterday as I apologized to him for sub-tweeting.\u201d Nux apologised to me privately yesterday as I apologised to him for sub-tweeting \u2014 Froot\ud83d\udc80VSHOJO (@LichVtuber) November 27, 2021 VShojo CEO Justin \u2018theGunrun\u2019 Ignacio issued a final statement on November 26, saying the group are continuing their investigation with law enforcement into the doxxing privately. He also asked for people to stop harassing Nux Taku over the video. \u201cWe recognize now that the complex priorities between Nux and VShojo will not always align when it comes to safety. We still maintain that taking down the video should have been done more immediately given our talent\u2019s feedback and the recommendation of our security firm,\u201d he said. \u201cWithin the short time-frame, we had little opportunity for foresight to bring in the talent earlier to contextualize their feelings on the matter. We can and will do better moving forward. \u201cOur talent has every right to advocate for their own safety, and we will always stand by them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VShojo speaks out after Nux Taku claims VTubers were doxxed by impersonators VShojo \/ YouTube: Nux TakuVTuber group VShojo has spoken out following claims people impersonating management were doxxing, and even swatting, other streamers.
