This morning the hashtag #BoycottBorderlands3 began trending on Twitter. The hashtag was created in response to a video published by Borderlands YouTuber SupMatto who claimed he was the victim of an investigation by Take-Two Interactive over Borderlands 3 leaks.
IGN has learned that 2K and Take-Two have indeed been investigating SupMatto’s Borderlands 3 videos as part of a wider investigation into ongoing Borderlands 3 leaks.
Yesterday, YouTuber SupMatto published a video that claimed that two private investigators showed up at his residence to inquire about his Borderlands YouTube account. “I don’t feel like I have anything to hide. They questioned me about various things relating to my channel, the livestream that was discussed on my channel… and they told me they were from Take-Two Interactive.”
