CoD streamer Xposed banned on Twitch after leaking viewer\u2019s private info Popular Call of Duty content creator and Twitch streamer, Xposed, has been banned on Twitch after accidentally revealing private information of his viewers during a Christmas giveaway broadcast. With over 130,000 followers to his name, Xposed is one of the bigger Call of Duty content creators on Twitch, however the streamer was just met with a temporary ban after violating the Community Guidelines. In the midst of a Christmas giveaway on December 26, the streamer accidentally revealed the private information of a number of viewers, directly resulting in a month-long ban from Twitch. https:\/\/twitter.com\/XposedTwitch\/status\/1209873250228019202 \u201cI\u2019m officially banned from Twitch,\u201d the streamer shared just days later on December 29 alongside a detailed explanation of the events that led to his temporary removal from the platform. Outlining the situation that resulted in a 30-day suspension, Xposed described how he was hosting a Christmas giveaway on Twitch and that in order to promote a fair and transparent contest, he would utilize the giveaway service known as \u2018Gleam.\u2019 \u201cI wanted to do the giveaway live so people didn\u2019t have any suspicion on who won the giveaway and didn\u2019t think it was fake,\u201d he explained. \u201cI didn\u2019t realize that when the winners are drawn it shows Hometowns, First and Last Names and Emails.\u201d I\u2019m officially banned from Twitch \ud83d\ude16 Read: https:\/\/t.co\/x4zfAQDuhA \u2014 Xposed (@Xposed) December 30, 2019 Expressing regret for the oversight, Xposed stated that he \u201cimmediately\u201d realized he was in the wrong and had \u201cmessed up\u201d in accidentally sharing vital information that so many viewers had entrusted to the giveaway site. \u201cI quickly deleted the Vods and Clips but it was too late. Accident or not, I\u2019m at fault for this and should\u2019ve tested the giveaway website before using it. I want to apologize to Twitch and my viewers for what\u2019s happened.\u201d Serving as the only source of income for the content creator, Xposed will be unable to provide for his family over the next 30 days and with a child on the way in the near future, the streamer has emphasized just how damaging the lengthy ban can be.

With all this going on I\u2019m going to be super stressed and it will be extremely difficult for myself and my family.\u201d A number of fellow content creators and Call of Duty professionals chimed in and showed their support for Xposed, even campaigning for a reduced suspension. Dillon \u2018Attach\u2019 Price of the New York Subliners Call of Duty franchise reassured that \u201cno one is forgetting about [Xposed].\u201d \u201cUpload some YouTube videos in the meantime,\u201d the CDL star added. \u201cPeople would love to support you anyway they can.\u201d Similarly, OpTic Gaming content creator, \u2018Rallied,\u2019 expressed concern, stating that the situation is \u201cactually awful. Hope [the ban] gets shortened for you. This still is our lives so I could only imagine how you feel.\u201d That is so unfortunate, I\u2019m sorry brotha. No one is forgetting about you and upload some YouTube videos in the mean time. People would love to support you anyway they can \u2014 NYSL Attach (@Attach) December 30, 2019 Damn, man. That\u2019s actually awful. Hope it gets shortened for you. This still is our lives so I could only imagine how you feel. On the bright side it\u2019s only temporary so stay strong, brother. \u2014 OpTic Ral (@Rallied) December 30, 2019 With over 25,000 followers on Twitter and just under 10,000 on YouTube, Xposed could continue to push content out on other platforms for the duration of the Twitch ban as others have suggested. However, his primary source of income has been made redundant for the following 30 days despite similar oversights resulting in lesser punishments. Accepting fault for the oversight during the Christmas giveaway, it\u2019s likely that Xposed will be extra cautious upon his eventual return to the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
