Pokimane hits out at \u201cgross\u201d re-uploads of her Twitch streams YT: PokimaneStreaming giant Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys has hit out at people using \u201cgross and inappropriate\u201d thumbnails and titles when re-uploading her Twitch streams to other platforms. Pokimane has had to put up with her streams being re-uploaded for some time now. It has previously led to controversies, particularly surrounding her own ability to copy-strike re-uploads of her own streams. She even clashed with YouTube King PewDiePie about her ability to strike re-uploads of her Twitch content. However, the ongoing DMCA issues on Twitch mean re-uploading content to other platforms is the only way to ensure it\u2019s not being lost forever. Obviously, this brings it own issues with it, with platforms like YouTube also known for ambiguous copyright ruling and strikes. Pokimane, as one of the world\u2019s biggest content creators on Twitch, has seen many of her past VODs uploaded to other platforms. While she has confirmed she has no issue with this, she has hit out at a portion of her followers who re-upload them and manipulate thumbnails or titles to portray her in a \u201cgross and inappropriate\u201d manner. \u201c[I\u2019ve] seen a lotta people re-upload my clips\/VODs to YouTube,\u201d she tweeted, on October 30. \u201cI don\u2019t mind but please don\u2019t use gross and inappropriate titles and thumbnails. It\u2019s my content after all, and it makes me uncomfortable to see it used that way\u2026 thank you to anyone who respects my wishes!\u201d seen a lotta people re-upload my clips\/VODs to youtube~ i don’t mind but please don’t use gross and inappropriate titles and thumbnails \ud83d\ude16 it’s my content after all, and it makes me uncomfortable to see it used that way.. thank you to anyone who respects my wishes! \u2665\ufe0f \u2014 pokimane (@pokimanelol) October 30, 2020 Unfortunately, it\u2019s something that\u2019s all too common for Poki as the most-followed female streamer on Twitch. She has spoken in the past about uncomfortable encounters with fans, even to the point of forcing her to hire a personal bodyguard for community events. Reuploading her content with suggestive thumbnails and titles has been a constant battle for Anys, and one she\u2019s still trying to fight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
