The bracelet came to Twitter's broad attention today when user @Its_Jawsh shared screenshots of the item's purchase page in a tweet captioned, "What the actual fuck," which has since garnered over 54,000 likes in half a day. Since then, many other confused or annoyed users have chimed in with their own opinions on the item, many finding particular issue with the inclusion of the baby pictures.

In one tweet, YouTube commentator Bowblax accused Dream of playing into the "parasocial relationship" he purportedly has with his audience by selling the baby pictures.

Yesterday, Twitter user @DinoNuggetsXD wrote about the bracelet, "this is one of the most insane, if not THE most insane products a youtuber has ever sold."

“Erm… other celebrities have done this too, it isn’t even weird”

YES IT STILL IS. Terminally online people show just how disconnected they are from real life thinking this is a normal or ok thing to buy/sell

The 4 GB USB slap bracelet comes with more than just Dream's baby pictures. According to the item's shop page, it also includes, "some chapters from Dream's old books, childhood emails, old gaming screenshots, pictures/memes from Dream's camera roll and more," as well as a branded magnetic case with Dream's smiley face logo branded on it.

Dream, who has managed to keep his identity anonymous for years despite the best efforts of some, has a massive online fanbase with over 30 million subscribers on YouTube alone. His biggest stans are pushing back against the bracelet criticism by arguing that other celebrities have done the same and insisting that the inclusion of his baby pictures isn't weird.

According to the shop page, orders for the bracelet will begin processing on September 28th.
