"Bros getting banned on everything"— Internet reacts to Fousey getting banned from using Autopilot while driving his Tesla

Popular streamer Fousey was banned from using autopilot functionality while driving his Tesla on live stream. The clip from his stream went viral online.

In the clip, Yousef 'Fousey' Erakat was seen listening to music while driving his Tesla when the streamer wondered if he lost "autopilot functionality." He checked the same in his car on live stream and realized that he was banned from using the function for six days.

"Oh no! They take autopilot away from me! I have been suspended based on my driving and will be restored on November 27. Bi*ch that's six days!," he said.

Fans took to X to react to Fousey being banned by Tesla, and many joked about the matter.

"bros getting banned on everything," one X user wrote.

Several other netizens expressed their opinions on the social media platform.

"Wait Teslas can ban you from using autopilot???? Lmaooooo," another user quipped.

"Fousey back at it again lmao," another fan chimed in.

"First "rapper" to be banned by Telsa," a netizen joked.

Some of the other reactions were as follows:

"Misleading. He was using it improperly and will be given access again after this drive is over. He can pull over get out and get back in and have access to it again. Unless he’s gotten 5 strikes in rapid succession then he’s banned for a week," an X user opined.

"Never heard someone getting banned from using Autopilot like isn’t that what you must use when someone is driving reckless??," a netizen asked.

"How bro get banned from this... This is insane," another person jibed.

This is not the first time Fousey has been on the news for being banned from certain platforms. The streamer was banned on live streaming platforms Kick and Twitch this year for his alleged controversial behavior.

Fousey was banned on live-streaming platforms Twitch and Kick in November 2024

On November 14, 2024, Kick CEO Edward Craven indefinitely banned Fousey from his platform. The ban came after the streamer planned a supposed 30-day continuous stream but was constantly interrupted by technical issues. These interruptions led Erakat to have an outburst on the live stream.

Shortly after the outburst, the CEO texted Kick streamer Sam Pepper to ban Erakat from the platform for an unspecified time. He wrote:

"No more Fousey man. This isn't good for anyone."

This was not the first time Erakat had been in troubled waters with the live-streaming platform. He was previously banned from Kick on October 30 for allegedly having a physical altercation with his manager on live. The YouTuber also allegedly used a homophobic slur for his manager. He was unbanned from Kick on November 10 before his indefinite ban four days later.

The YouTuber had also pledged an 80-day hiatus at that time from streaming before allegedly going missing but returned to it much earlier than he had said. The streamer also wrote a series of tweets, claiming he couldn't move to Kick's rival streaming platform, Twitch, due to his "contract" with the former.

"Not even 48 hours into my 24/7 30 days, and Kick bans me. Out of respect for my contract with them, I can't go to Twitch to continue," he wrote.

Erakat also claimed Kick had banned him as he would "expose" all of them and not because of the "punch" on his manager. Shortly after his reported permanent ban from Kick on November 14, Fousey took to X to react to it and wrote:

"I’M ADDICTED TO GOING LIVE AND I’M ITCHING AT BEING BANNED ON @KickStreaming BABE PLEASE. JUST GIVE ME A PERSONAL PARTNER TO MODERATE ME AND I WILL LEARN THE RULES.. I NEED TO STREAM. I LOSE G7 ENERGY EVERY SECOND I’M BANNED. IT MIGHT BE SO LONG BY THE TIME I CAN STREAM AGAIN I’M G1.. GAME OVER."

Apart from Kick, Fousey has multiple bans on Twitch as well. The first ban came in August 2023 when he allegedly used racial slang while singing J. Cole's track, Love Yourz. He was banned a second time in the same month for using a homophobic slur on a livestream. He faced his third ban on Twitch in the same month for unspecified reasons.

The YouTuber was eventually unbanned from Twitch but moved to Kick in late 2023. Shortly after his recent indefinite ban on Kick on November 14, Fousey took to X to declare that his status on Twitch was unbanned and he could stream there.

"OMG. I forgot I can stream on X and Twitch. Back when I wake up. Not waiting for an un-ban. Game is game," he wrote.

However, things did not go the rapper's way again, as Twitch banned his account for unspecified reasons a day after he began streaming, marking his sixth ban on the platform.

Yousef Erakat has since continued to stream on X, while Twitch has not officially confirmed the reasons behind banning the streamer from their platform.
