Let this PSA serve as a lesson: just because you're a small time social media person, doesn't mean you can't or won't be threatened with swatting.

Yeah, so this totally happened to me earlier this evening. Thank goodness this time he so boldly admitted to attempting a SWAT call. However, PLEASE, for the love of YouTube and all that is holy, setup keywords with your local law enforcement to confirm a legitimate need for SWAT. Stuff like this is EXACTLY WHY Barnacules Nerdgasm on YouTube preached in one of his Internet safety seminars to setup such key words.

Doesn't matter how big or small you are (and for what it's worth I got like 3.9 subs on YouTube, 111 of y'all following me here on Steemit, ~1000 people on my Facebook and about 130 or so people on my Twitter), get it done ASAP, especially if you wanna be big on social media or even be a streamer.
