Newman's initial reaction, expressed on a Discord server ("Can you believe the cheek?"), quickly escalated into a viral controversy. While Newman has stated the issue is resolved, the identity of the sender remains undisclosed.

The DMCA targeted user-created content within Garry's Mod, a Valve-published sandbox game (2006). The notice claimed significant revenue generation from unauthorized Skibidi Toilet-themed Garry's Mod games featuring characters like Titan Cameraman, Titan Speakerman, and Titan TV Man—characters the sender claimed were copyrighted.
