      Yeah! Why would the agency that investigates online child sex abuse be interested in chat logs that potentially contain information about online child sex abuse?

        It doesn’t say that? It mentions a former employee was a groomer. But it also doesn’t mention why company chat logs would have anything to do with that.

          Do you think that grooming doesn’t fall under child sex abuse? Do you think that the FBI wouldn’t be interested in logs that may show prior knowledge of this abuse and would contradict prior statements that MrBeast was unaware? Do you think if he was aware of this abuse and didn’t say anything that this wouldn’t count as covering up child sex abuse, aka being an accessory to a crime?

              Then what did you say? There seems to be some kind of major disconnect between you, the implications of the linked article, and why the FBI could be involved.

          I would suggest looking at the videos in the tweets. It’s not clear exactly what is posted because it goes by too quickly, but you can definitely see that a lot of it is sexual and if some of it is CSAM, I wouldn’t exactly be shocked based on what I could see.

      FYI, OP edited the link in the post, so you and I are not seeing the same article as others are. Some are seeing a Newsweek article about the story, and I think you’re seeing the Insider Gaming article that I’m also seeing, which provides basically zero details.

      They never connect the dots when reading the chain of articles. If you go back through, you can find a vidcap of the telegram chat in question.

      Looks like it from back in covid. It’s a bit raunchy. Honestly not unlike any chat you’ll see between a handfull of immature guys. It’s kinda hard to follow, it just scrolls by for 7 minutes, mostly memes, dicks on catoons and them bitching about people leaving them needy or critisizing comments.

      If Tyson did groom an underaged kid, maybe there’s something in there damning, I didn’t see anything obvious.
