2019 March - People Are Getting Swatted For Speaking Out Against The Rewired Soul

**This is not a one of, therefore this is not a solo link to explain this.**
Recently a YouTuber by the name of The Rewired Soul has been coping criticism left right and centre for actions including **misdiagnosing people** and **telling others who have a condition that they should speak about it and raise awareness when they have stated that they are not comfortable doing so**. Whether or not this is justified is up to personal opinion, and not something I am willing to discuss here.


As The Rewired Soul is a channel based around mental health, to put these people in this position or indirectly put people in this position seems to go against the basis of the channel itself and regardless of that it **NEEDS TO STOP**.


**Multiple YouTuber's have spoken about his harmful actions towards people. Multiple people have been swatted while streaming (or shortly after) talking about The Rewired Soul, and one was called for a wellness check. There are videos with accounts of events below. As one of the videos point out and I am sure it is the case for many people who are covering the subject, their own personal mental health issues mean that the swatting has a very negative effect on their mental health. So much so that one YouTuber is quitting the platform and another has quit Twitter over drama surrounding The Rewired Soul, after another YouTuber (Repzilla) interviewed her about his (Rewired Soul's) misdiagnosis of her, this lead to sensitive, off the record information about her being released by Repzilla during an interview conducted over Twitter messages.**


Two of the three YouTubers of whom have been swatted/had police called have/had made video talking about the leaking of the sensitive information, so it was unknown of whom they were conducted by or on behalf of, but one of the people swatted had not covered this sensitive information leak but had covered issues surrounding The Rewired Soul.


**It is unknown how the addresses were found but one account implies hacking of an internet device whilst streaming. Also note: All the cases of swatting mentioned have occurred in the US.**


**Videos:**

[I Give Up You WIN!](https://youtu.be/e4L7ojsjRO4)
[The cops just showed up at my house because of The Rewired Soul](https://youtu.be/6c-o0e_45Mo) (**In this video it is stated it was for a wellness check because The Rewired Soul had said that she needed a wellness check)**

2019 March - Youtube offers creators with the option to buy awards

If you have already met the subscriber goal, you can buy additional subscriber plaques from youtube themselves. Its basically unheard of and many creators have not known it was an option, along with the fact youtube has never mentioned it either. Its also apparently rather hard to get the response, as they will usually say no.

###Beginning Context

Coffee Break is a video essay channel run by Stephen

Johann Hari is a writer and journalist who has written books about addiction

Kurzgesagt is a German science animation channel run by Philipp Dettmer that employs 25 people and is funded in part by the German government

On March 3 2019 Kurzgesagt posted a video noscriptd "Can You Trust Kurzgesagt Videos?" in which they state they are taking down two videos on Addiction and the European Migrant Crisis for inaccuracy and bias.

###The Main Issues

Coffee Break posts a video on March 12 2019 noscriptd "Trust - In A Nutshell"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8nNPQssUH0

(At least, that is what it is now noscriptd. Various threads imply the noscript also included something like "Kurzgesagt Is Lying" or "Can You Trust Kurzgesagt? - In A Nutshell" but none seem to use the exact same noscript, so these may have been edits by the users posting the videos.)

The video makes two claims:

* Coffee Break contacted Kurzgesagt about inaccuracies in their Addiction video, requesting an interview for a video essay he was working on. Kurzgesagt stalled his progress by promising but delaying an interview, stated their video was [CB paraphrasing] "Good enough", and created a video of their own to address the topic before Coffee Break could release his video.

* Kurzgesagt did not accurately research Johann Hari's book on Addiction when they created the initial Addiction video, nor after releasing their Can You Trust Kurzgesagt video, continuing to misquote the claims Hari makes about the causes behind addiction.



Stephen (CB) states that he will not quote the email correspondence between himself and Philipp Dettmer as Philipp requested not to be quoted.

Stephen makes a point to request Philipp allow him to make the email records public.

###Coffee Break's View

Stephen from Coffee Break explains that he has been working on a three-part series on "Pop-Science" videos that explain complex topics in a simplified format for a wider audience to understand, and how simplification can lead to misinformation.

(I had written more of this, but the post was accidentally deleted. I am going to work on filling in the rest again but wanted to get what I had left over up in the meantime.)
