July 3rd Community Tab Incident

On July 3, 2023, Daniel posted several angry messages on his YouTube community tab, partially caused by an ongoing court case against him.

At first, he made a few posts about a court case which he claimed were copyright-related, but he was likely just lying in an attempt to scare people "impersonating" his music on Spotify. Immediately after this post, he threatened to "f****** bomb they're (Spotify's) f****** headquarters and Sue the living s*** out of them." After a few similar posts about Spotify, he describes an argument with Bob which he blames the Denver County Court for, at one point even threatening to bomb a courthouse. After some miscellaneous ominous posts, he declares "Code f****** death" and claims "the Reddit headquarters I will nuke." It is highly unlikely Daniel has access to nuclear weapons. He also claims he "If I get arrested...I want the White House burned down," a very serious threat that could easily get him in trouble with the Secret Service. He then claims "This is only the Start of the war," "Daniel Watterson [sic] versus the government 😱." He mentions his awareness of Chris Chan, then makes a few posts venting about his family members. He also makes the claim "I will talk to Putin myself," which got over 190 likes, and marks the end of the meltdown.

He presumably went to bed after this incident, as the posts stopped for 15 hours and have since returned to normal, however in one of his posts after this he says "I have deleted TikTok."

Aftermath

Daniel made several threats during this incident which could easily land him in huge legal trouble, especially his apparent threat against the White House. As this incident happened very recently, nothing can be said for sure, but there is a very high chance this results in bad consequences for Daniel.
