Pokimane Says the Deepfakes on Atrioc's Stream Were of Her

Pokimane Says the Deepfakes on Atrioc's Stream Were of Her Pokimane brought up a scandal from twenty twenty three, and within three days the accusation had been turned around onto her. In January twenty twenty three the streamer Atrioc, real name Brandon Ewing, was caught on his own broadcast with paid deepfake material of female streamers open on screen. He apologised, said he was stepping away from content creation, and later came back. On the twenty sixth of October Pokimane said the detail everyone forgot is that the page visible on his stream was of her. She said it still brings on anxiety and a feeling of public humiliation, three years later. What prompted her to say it was seeing him turn up at a gathering with people close to her. She also credited him for putting three thousand dollars toward getting the material taken down. Atrioc replied that her discomfort is valid and that he still regrets it, while arguing that his friends should be free to invite him places. Two days later a post went viral claiming that Pokimane had herself put deepfakes of colleagues on screen while discussing it. She answered that the image was a censored version of what Atrioc had already broadcast, while accepting that showing it at all could do further harm. She then made the recording private, and the precise details of what was on screen are still disputed. A woman described what had been done to her and then spent the week defending how she described it. Subscribe to The Clout Report for the internet decoded.
