Twitch celebrity Pokimane discloses the less glamorous aspects of internet stardom, admitting she invests a substantial portion of her monthly income on maintaining her online security.
Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys, known as the top female streamer on Twitch, has broadened her domain from the gaming realm to establish a snack business and was even extended an invitation to the Grammy Awards.
As a well-known Twitch streamer like Poki, being in the spotlight isn’t always as glamorous as it seems. Sure, I’ve got plenty of dough, but the crazy amount I need to shell out for online security just to stay safe? That’s no walk in the park.
During a February 12th podcast on YouTube with Colin and Samir, she candidly discussed the topic, detailing the measures she needs to implement to safeguard herself from persistent pursuers (stalkers).

Pokimane spends “five figures” monthly on online security
Anya mentions that she shells out a substantial amount, which is in the thousands, every month to various corporations and groups for the purpose of safeguarding against issues such as doxxing, deepfakes, or unauthorized use of her identity, image, or copyright.
Admitting honestly, issues we never faced five years back have emerged now. Back then, there was no concern about people abusing AI capabilities by misrepresenting me, or using my voice in AI without my approval for various purposes.
She elaborated on the measures she takes to ensure her location remains anonymous. She explained that whenever she moves, she employs individuals to remove any photographs of her apartments, and in some cases, she completely transforms the space to make it unrecognizable from pictures that could still be found online.
She clarified that there are individuals I regularly compensate to search and remove my address from any online platforms if found, which isn’t ideal.
Although it’s my dream to reside in a house or share living space with others, unfortunately, this isn’t feasible for me. Instead, I must dwell in a secure building, equipped with a front entrance or similar safety features. Every time I move into a new flat, I find it necessary to engage professionals to remove all existing photographs of the apartment from any source.
