After posting a picture of just his kitchen on his second Twitter account, fans of the YouTuber Dream were able to figure out his home address and spread it online.
Dream is a popular YouTube personality who exclusively plays Minecraft. Despite recent allegations that Dream cheats in his Minecraft speedruns, just a few days ago, the faceless YouTuber reached a major milestone of 15 million subscribers on the video platform, with 14 million of those subscribers gained in just one year. And like most online content creators to this caliber, Dream’s fanbase has grown beyond passionate and some have even become obsessed.
The drama with Dream’s private address leak looks to begin with Mr Beast’s YouTube Rewind. Dream posted a short clip to Twitter with a smiley-faced sign and blocking his face, teasing Mr Beast’s upcoming video summarizing the chaos of 2020, and many fans took the tweet to tease a face reveal. Much like the widely popular content creator Corpse Husband, Dream hasn’t revealed his face on this internet, but some fans are dying to know what he looks like.
Towards the end of Mr Beast’s YouTube Rewind, the same clip of Dream with the sign in his face plays, but when he drops it to reveal his face, a ball with the iconic Dream smiley is covering his face. It’s clear that Dream has no plans to show his true identity to the internet and is just teasing his fans, but some more avid followers were satisfied enough by seeing his neck, calling it the “Dream Neck Reveal.”
Unfortunately, some fans are saying this instance is what led to Dream’s address being leaking online. Yesterday, Dream posted a picture of his kitchen to his second Twitter account and using the online real estate marketplace Zillow, some were able to figure out the location of his home residence from the photo alone. One Twitter user, mazouwu, was even giving it away to anyone that asked until they were reported enough and deactivated, changing their name on the social media platform to “ok ok im done” and deleting all of their content.
While some fans of the popular YouTuber are calling them and other fans out for stalkerish behavior and taking the obsession with Dream too far, others are unfortunately saying that he deserved it. Twitter user EmblemResident comments, “He fostered it by manipulating a hype to his audience that he would reveal his face, but lied.”
Dream himself has not commented on the doxing situation on any of his public social media accounts, but luckily, no photos of his face or residence have surfaced online so far, likely meaning people have not yet visited his home address, something that happens to other YouTubers like PewDiePie and his wife Marzia too often.
