xQc blasts \u201ccowards\u201d behind Hasan\u2019s DMCA Twitch ban Twitch: xQc\/HasanFelix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel blasted Hasan \u2018HasanAbi\u2019 Piker\u2019s recent Twitch ban as a bit \u201clame\u201d given that he was DMCA\u2019d due to \u201ccowards\u201d not agreeing with his viewpoints. When it comes to being banned from Twitch, there are a whole host of guidelines that streamers can trip up on and get themselves in trouble. However, there has been an increased spotlight put on DMCA-able content in the last year or so. Some streamers have gotten into trouble for playing licensed music, some for watching sporting highlights without permission, and others for flagrantly watching TV shows as a sort of watch party. Most of these punishments are handed out after a streamer goes offline, but they can be done mid-stream too. That happened to HasanAbi on December 6, as he was watching an interview with Kanye West. xQc hits out at Hasan\u2019s Twitch ban The popular political commentator, who has since been unbanned, was suspended while he was live after he was reported by a number of viewers who have different political viewpoints. A few streamers have weighed in on the ban, including xQc who believes it was \u201clame\u201d that Hasan had his stream suspended. \u201cI think it\u2019s cringe. You\u2019re doing an action that you deem as fine unless you don\u2019t agree with them. If you don\u2019t agree with their opinion, they do that\u2026 I don\u2019t know,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t agree with that, I think it\u2019s lame as f*ck. When you partake in a public dialogue and it\u2019s opinionated and you\u2019re willing to let people comment or whatever and you go and DMCA them, curve the law in these ways because you\u2019re not getting the response you want or opinion you want, that\u2019s the most coward s*it.\u201d Timestamp of 1:39 The former Overwatch star claimed that DMCA isn\u2019t something people should \u201cflex\u201d just because they disagree with something, given the wider implications it can have on a channel. As noted, Hasan has been unbanned and given his own response to the drama, but he\u2019s unlikely to let it lay once he gets back broadcasting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
