It appears YouTuber and Team Kaliber owner Justin ‘KOSDFF’ Chandler might be evicted for creating and uploading videos from his home in Georgia.
KOSDFF’s neighborhood Home Owner’s Association states that running his YouTube channel from home counts as running a business.
So apparently doing YouTube from your home in Cobb County Georgia counts as running a business from your home. HOA is trying to kick us out.

The HOA already sent over a Code Enforcement agent to investigate the situation.
Im not kidding. Guy just told me I can't upload to YouTube from my home pic.twitter.com/9g8iNH5qJH

While this may look like a one-off scenario, it could potentially set a dangerous precedent for upcoming YouTubers. Even established ones that may not run their channels from a studio or office.
However, KOSDFF’s entanglement seems to have started from inane circumstances — a friend’s girlfriend parked in front of a neighbor’s house.
Believe it or not this is all because a nasty neighbor hated that Crispy's GF parked her car in the street for a couple days.

Sounds like a scene from HBO’s Silicon Valley.
UPDATE: Word got out to KOSDFF’s county. They are reconsidering the possible fines and eviction; however, he’ll need to fill out some paperwork to stay.
Sp apparently the county watched my video and reconsidered. We have to apply for some stuff etc and if it gets approved we can stay 😀
