"If you think you are immune, you are in for a surprise" - Rumble CEO calls out Adin Ross for "trying to destroy" platform's reputation

Chris Pavlovski, the CEO of livestreaming platform Rumble, took to Twitter on July 13, 2023, to call out controversial internet personality Adin Ross. In his post, Pavlovski said "spammers" were attempting to destroy the platform's reputation by creating "fake narratives" with the help of artificial followers. He also attached three photos from Ross' recent livestream as evidence.

Pavlovski seemingly threatened action by stating that Rumble's legal team has gone up against power companies and governments. The tweet reads:

"Spammers trying to destroy Rumble's reputation by creating a fake narrative with bots won't be treated with white gloves Our legal team takes on some of the biggest companies and most powerful governments in the world. If you think you are immune, you are in for a surprise."

"Tighten up" - Adin Ross responds to the Rumble CEO's threatening tweet

Adin Ross has been outspoken about his sentiments towards Rumble. During his recent Kick livestream, the Florida native went off at Nico "Sneako" for criticizing the Trainwreckstv-backed platform. He then drew a comparison between Kick, Rumble, and Twitch, stating:

"Kick literally implemented an update where you can check mark basically saying if you want to display Hot Tub streamers and Gambling streams. So, Twitch doesn't have that. Rumble doesn't have that. Kick did it."

Ross also addressed Rumble streamers, telling them to "stay in their own lane":

"To all, you Rumble creators, Kick stays in their own lane. You are not the enemy. It's Twitch. Rumble, in all fairness, no disrespect, Rumble you are not competition to Kick."

As mentioned earlier, on July 13, Chris Pavlovski claimed that "spammers" were attempting to destroy the Toronto-based company's image and attached images from Adin Ross' broadcast.

In response, Ross stated that he instructed his fans to type the phrase "spam fumble" in the Kick chat room. He said:

"Chris... on my stream, when I said, 'Spam fumble,' it was in my chat, not your website. Also - that tweet got nothing to do with me, brother. Tighten up."

According to Twitter user @JABridgeforth, the issue was with the Twitter userbase, not Ross:

Kick streamer Rangesh "N3on" responded as well, claiming that "someone randomly" botted his social media update to get over 6,000 likes. He added that he deleted the tweet after seeing the engagement numbers:
