Alinity explains why sexual content on Twitch won\u2019t stop despite Amouranth & Indiefoxx bans Twitch\/Alinity\/Instagram\/Indiefoxx\/AmouranthStreamer Natalia \u2018Alinity\u2019 Mogollon doesn\u2019t believe that sexual content on Twitch will stop anytime soon, despite the fact Amouranth and Indiefoxx were handed three-day bans after their controversial ASMR streams. Twitch has come under a lot of fire as of late with streamers being accused of abusing the platform to promote sexualized content in the form of hot tub streams, and more recently, the ASMR earlicking meta. While the Amazon-owned platform tried to deal with the hot tub meta and the effect it was having on advertising by relegating the streams to their own new category, many believe this wasn\u2019t enough and just enticed streamers to find something new. Even after both Amouranth and Indiefoxx, two of the more prominent ASMR streamers, were banned for three days, Alinity doesn\u2019t believe that this will do enough to deter sexual content in the slightest. Taking to Twitter, the Colombian-Canadian stressed that the punishment for sexual content and behavior just isn\u2019t enough and the bans may draw more attention to those broadcasts. \u201cAs someone that had an accidental violation for sexual content, I can tell you that the amount of advertising you get from said suspension highly outweighs the lack of income from a three-day ban,\u201d she wrote, referencing her infamous wardrobe malfunction from 2020. \u201cIt\u2019s just a nice vacation,\u201d she added. \u201cFree promo during your break and even more promo when you are back.\u201d Listen, I’m not saying whether I am in favor or against that content being on the site. What I am saying is that they need to decide whether or not they want the content on Twitch, and be FIRM against it. 3 DMCAS is a perma ban, but 3 sexual violations isn’t? Makes no sense.\u2014 Alinity (@Alinity) June 22, 2021 This all said, Alinity isn\u2019t exactly against this type of content being on Twitch to begin with, having partaken in hot tub streams herself. However, she finds Twitch\u2019s lack of a stance and limited transparency certainly troublesome. \u201cListen, I\u2019m not saying whether I am in favor or against that content being on the site. What I am saying is that they need to decide whether or not they want the content on Twitch, and be FIRM against it,\u201d she continued. \u201c3 DMCAS is a perma ban, but 3 sexual violations isn\u2019t? Makes no sense.\u201d She further stated that month-long suspensions following a third strike could be enough of a punishment to significantly deter sexual content on Twitch. After the 3rd strike, a month suspension seems like it would deter it from happening. \u2014 Alinity (@Alinity) June 22, 2021 It remains to be seen what Twitch\u2019s position is and if they even have one in regards to the ASMR meta. Twitch has yet to make an official statement and it\u2019s unclear if something unique within Indiefoxx or Amouranth\u2019s streams resulted in their bans or if the site took aim at the ASMR meta directly. Considering Twitch does not comment on individual bans, it\u2019s unlikely we get answers anytime soon unless there is a formal announcement and a serious crackdown from the company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
