Just curious how some streamers feel confortable ordering food delivery. Sure, maybe a normal person doesn’t really have much enemies to warrant getting poisoned, but when streamers do it, I feel like somebody is gonna leak their address or they are get food poisoned.
Or do streamers just have a friend/relative deliver food to them? (Because I’m getting the impression that most of them just use the normal delivery apps)
I don’t know, but keep asking this question. These businesses are a scourge.
I don’t think the odds are calculable. But once you’ve reached a certain level of fame, some good historic knowledge of how to protect yourself from unwanted attention will surely kick in. You don’t want to get SWAT teamed, so I suppose you try to keep your address undoxxed. And I guess you could use an alias on your delivery app.
I think you may also be overestimating the level of fame of streamers. They’ll be world famous within their bubble but two feet away from it nobody knows who they are. The odds are probably in their favor that the uber eats driver doesn’t know or care who they are.
More importantly even then… IE there’s absolutely been cases of streamers attracting crazy stalkers etc…
But proportionally they are extremely few. Would be insanely unlikely for the kind of person that’s obsessed with them, also being a door dash driver, happening to have come across the streamers address. (from my recolection of my very brief time helping my GF door dash, when deciding which jobs to take, you only get the restraunt and the distance, only learn where the delivery is going after.
So hypothetically even if I knew Logan Pauls address. I’d have to camp out near restaurants near him… time my working when he might be ordering, guess which restaurant he’s ordering from… Honestly it seems like a plan that would take years to hit all the boxes to go with… probably more efficiant to camp out on streets I think he’d walk down or break in to his house the old fashioned way if I already had that level of information.
As a delivery driver I ain’t gonna poison anyone, but I don’t like the idea of prison, or hurting people in general really
Streamers often have food dropped off at their door, so even if the delivery driver knew of the streamer they were delivering to, they wouldn’t know that’s who they’re dropping the food off for.
Big streamers are paranoid enough to take extra security measures to prevent anyone from knowing where they live, and usually move away pretty quickly if someone finds out.
When is the last time you heard of someone getting intentionally poisoned by a delivery driver? Id be surprised if its happened. Let alone happened in a targeted attack because the person is ‘famous’. Also most streamers are orders of magnitude away from being as famous as their fans seem to think they are. Normal people dont care about your favorite streamer.
Plus, like with Marilyn Monroe, their personality on stream is generally a persona of sorts. They’re going to be very different collecting food and paying for it on their own, compared to when they’re in front of an audience.
You’d be more inclined to think that someone who looked a bit like the streamer received the food.
I kinda put it in the same category as holloween candy. Everybody thinks it’s possible and has a fear of it. But no one does it or at least there has never been a recorded case of it.
Most the the delivery packages have some sort of tamper “proof” system on the bag and cups so it would be pretty tough.
