Sounds to me like they're saying they WANT the personal information of users to be leaked.
Because that will totally end well for them. I wonder who twitch streamers will sue? One rando in 4chan? Or fucking Amazon?

The agreement the majority of streamers sign with Twitch (not those under a network or agency like CAA, for example) force them to an arbitration that would clearly favor Amazon's interests. The week is still young but no class actions or reconciliations can occur easily under arbitration. From the perspectives of the streamers, this could be a further catalyst for them to organize under a union (which would be the most spiteful and hurt Twitch the most), again, its too early to tell.

They are in a difficult position, as Twitch is (for now) pretty much unchallenged in the streaming business. It is a capital intense operation to run such a site and pay such talent. A mass walk-out to YouTube could happen, but again, its only Friday. We're gonna be waiting a while for anything further to develop outside of streamers coping and getting booty blasted.

Guys, I'm sorry if this has already been discussed, but apparently there is a list of streamers who can't banned or suspended. Worse of all, Destiny was banned for talking about it on stream.

Now, I know very little about Destiny or De Orio, but a list of streamers who can do anything as far as Twitch is concerned would give us a very good idea of where the site is going and what kind of content they want. I could also end up with one or two "me too" type scandals.

Summit making bank and still can't stop dressing like a 6th grader... I'm honestly glad Jerma and Asmon make a fair amount. The rest are just garbage streamers.

I feel morally conflicted about watching streamers but I love varg, these numbers make me feel a lot better about it too. 100k/year isn't peanuts but it's not exactly fuck you money either.

Vargskelethor makes a point to periodically tell people to not give him money because he's doing fine in terms of money. Vinny too afaik. Nothing to feel conflicted about when your preferred streamer has made it clear that they are streaming for the entertainment of others and themselves vs to acquire a braindead audience of paypigs.

Verified: this company spent more time putting acceptable language usage into their bylaws and trying to filter out every variation of Nesquick than Robert Oppenheimer and his team put into the Manhattan Project.

Though I very much appreciate being taught new slurs, these graphics are terribly made. Whoever was making these was clearly phoning it in.

Is this supposed to be a slur against Americans? How? I feel like I'm missing something important.

No, that is a slur against Indians. The etymology is unclear.

i'd like to know more about this, too. the poster in that link says Destiny was banned for discussing this, though the reason cited in another tweet was because he gave out someone's email... which proves he was on the mark. could be scandalous, could be not, but i'm pretty sure i've heard once or twice about people getting banned for complaining about thot streamers in the past, or certain streamers getting away with things that caused others to be indefinitely suspended.
