APEX Legends, ZDT CHILLSTREAM JOHNNY OOPS, WE HAVE THEIR DISCORD 2026-06-09 11, 22, ZeroDarkTony / June 9, 2026 / YouTube / exOFsRGULy0
Anthony R. D’Amato, Jr., also known as ZeroDarkTony, announced during a June 9, 2026 YouTube livestream that he had obtained access to a Discord server he called “HNZ-Newsroom” and attributed its exposure to a person he named as “Johnny.” D’Amato stated on stream that he intended to subpoena the server’s contents and every member in it, and claimed to have emailed screenshots to detectives. He also stated his intent to pursue civil suit, restraining orders, and criminal charges against individuals in the server.
“I’m Going to Fucking Subpoena That Motherfucker”
D’Amato framed the Discord server’s discovery as a pivotal legal turning point, telling his audience the disclosure was a mistake by Johnny and that all members of the server were now exposed. He described two options for those affected: come forward voluntarily or face subpoena. He stated, “the easy way is come forward… the hard way is we’re going to subpoena it,” and followed with, “we are going to make sure that all legal remedies are employed and deployed here.” He credited his audience for alerting him, saying, “I appreciate everybody keeping their eyes peeled and saying something when they saw something.” In the same broadcast, D’Amato stated he was taking the matter to a detective that day. He also announced an intent to sue, stating he hoped his target held steady employment: “I hope Little Johnny has a real job so that when I sue them, I get a piece of that paycheck every month.”
Exhibit A
D’Amato presents the discovery of the Discord server as confirmation of prior wrongdoing and lays out his stated legal strategy, saying, “the hard way is we’re going to subpoena it.” He tells his audience that server contents cannot be deleted and that “we’re going to find every single person in that discord.”

Addressing the server’s members directly, D’Amato states that his detective contact will be informed and sets up the courtroom framing: “when it gets to court, we’re going to let them know that we gave you the opportunity to come forward.” He names a user called “Betsy” alongside Johnny as targets of the identification effort.

D’Amato states his intention to involve a detective and to use the court process as a venue to demonstrate that members were given notice. He also states that LAPD or private investigators approaching server members will cause them to “spill the beans,” framing third-party members as potential witnesses against Johnny.
Exhibit C
D’Amato states on stream that he has already emailed the evidence to detectives, then addresses his target directly: “I can’t wait to see you squirm in a courtroom.” He enumerates expected legal outcomes, including a civil suit, restraining orders, and criminal charges, and states he claims “real damages, both punitive and financial.”
