ZDT COFFEE HOUR CORRECTION, EL NINO, SLICES [ZeroDarkTony] / September 30, 2026 / YouTube / MElyB2VfcRo
Anthony R. D’Amato, Jr., also known as ZeroDarkTony, spent portions of a September 30, 2026 YouTube livestream publicly naming individuals he described as suspects in an ongoing personal investigation. He referred to his targets, including Nathanial, Al, Spanglish, and Clearwater Crashout, using language that included “fat piece of shit,” “psychopaths and liars,” and “weird gay stalker.” He also stated that pending subpoenas would advance his efforts to identify his currently anonymous targets. D’Amato framed the stream in part as a correction to prior identification claims, stating he still believed one individual “could be some of these other characters” discussed previously. He indicated that audience members had been looking into the named targets, describing the crowd-sourced activity as something he had encouraged by making the information public.
Both this stream and the previous one were tough to follow. In a prior stream, the night before, D’Amato seemed to suggest that a First Amendment auditor who streams as Nasty Nathanial was actually one of his anonymous targets, possibly Cody. This stream appeared to walk back that claim, but he was extremely cautious about who he was trying to identify, making it hard to grasp what he was saying. Our only way to interpret it was by reading between the lines and trying to read his mind.
“We Gotta Figure Out How to Eliminate Them”
D’Amato described his approach to the named individuals as a “process of elimination.” He claimed that Spanglish, another streamer, was “another weird gay stalker” and said, “we’ll figure it out.” The statement that subpoenas would resolve the investigation followed within the same passage, framing what he called a legal process as running alongside the public naming and audience scrutiny of the same targets.
Exhibit A
D’Amato states, “we gotta figure out how to eliminate them,” then identifies Spanglish as “another weird gay stalker,” before adding, “the subpoenas will remove a lot of this sort of, you know, looking into these things.” The clip shows D’Amato treating a public audience-assisted investigation and a stated legal process as complementary tracks against the same named individuals.

D’Amato does not specify what the subpoenas target or which court they are filed in. The clip establishes that he publicly named names of random streamers including Nasty Nathanial, a guy supposeldy named “Al,” and S.P. Spanglish alongside the subpoena reference while characterizing his investigation as ongoing and unresolved.
