Twitch streaming couple unbanned after showing \u201cpixelated\u201d naked woman YouTube\/Sailing Miss Lone StarThe Twitch streamers Heosu and Esco have been unbanned on the platform after being hit with a three day suspension for showing a video of a pixelated naked woman. Despite appealing the suspension, the duo was still forced to suffer through the three days away from their followers. It\u2019s unclear if Twitch rejected their appeal or if the platform never got around to looking into it. In any case, the two can now finally return to streaming and doing what they love. \u2705 Twitch Partner “”EXBC”” (@EXBCtv) has been unbanned after 3 days, 39 minutes and 50 seconds! \u2705https:\/\/t.co\/MNzf9eZaF9#twitch #unban #partner #twitchpartner \ud83c\udfd6 \u2014 StreamerBans (@StreamerBans) April 9, 2021 Original story follows\u2026 Twitch streamers Heosu and Esco are hitting out at the Amazon-owned platform after their account, EXBCtv, was banned for showing a pixelated nude woman in a YouTube video. On April 6, the streamers discovered that their channel had been hit with a three-day ban, all because of a YouTube video shown during a broadcast. According to the husband and wife streamer duo, they hadn\u2019t taken a break from streaming for more than two days in the five years they\u2019d been on Twitch, which made the ban all the more concerning. In a tweet, EXBCtv claimed they were appealing the ban and that, because it was for three days, it would be the longest they\u2019d be away from their stream. Banned because of girl\u2019s pixelated body. Last 5years, I\u2019ve not rested even 2days in a row. It\u2019s 3days ban. I\u2019m appealing now.https:\/\/t.co\/S0JtaGGSQI (13:10:00) I just showed this video on stream for few seconds. It wasn\u2019t porn, it\u2019s pixelated yt video. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s lewd https:\/\/t.co\/5iTlZ4rGrl\u2014 EXBC (@EXBCtv) April 6, 2021 They also showcased exactly what the supposed issue was. In a YouTube video titled \u201cNude Beach Costa Rica S8E15,\u201d a woman takes her clothes off and talks to the camera. While normally this would immediately raise some flags, her breasts are pixelated, so no nudity can actually be seen. This is something that makes the ban all the more concerning for EXBCtv. \u201cI just showed this video on stream for a few seconds,\u201d they revealed. \u201cIt\u2019s a pixelated YouTube video. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s lewd.\u201d (Segment begins at 13:10 for mobile users.) \u201cI swear I won\u2019t show any lewd or sexual video on stream,\u201d they remarked in a follow-up tweet. Fans of the streamers have expressed concern that Twitch would suspend their channel. \u201cMy heart feels bad when good people, who chose to trust a platform with their livelihood are functionally placed on 3 days of unpaid leave,\u201d one saddened viewer said. \u201cThey\u2019re a kind, empathetic, married couple and I respect them.\u201d The fact that a pixelated nude woman can result in a ban is quite bizarre, especially considering the pixelation happens in video games such as The Sims on a regular basis to avoid showing nudity. We\u2019ll have to see what Twitch decides to do and if EXBCtv\u2019s ban appeal ends up being successful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
