xQc stunned after discovering Hasan\u2019s trick to avoid \u201creact content\u201d backlash xQc was shocked when he discovered an editing tactic being used on Hasan\u2019s stream to avoid any more controversy over low-effort \u201creact content\u201d. While xQc and Hasan are some of the biggest names in streaming, that doesn\u2019t mean they aren\u2019t free from criticism, and one of the biggest critiques they faced last year was their approach to watching other people\u2019s content and then reuploading it, also known as \u201creact content\u201d. The two top streamers came under fire for stealing videos: critics said that by watching videos on stream and then uploading their (usually unremarkable) reaction to YouTube, the streamers were stealing views and revenue that would otherwise have gone to the original content creator. While the controversy has died down now, several streamers are still concerned about the drama, especially with plagiarism being a hot topic in online culture right now. And it seems that Hasan\u2019s stream is deploying countermeasures to stop this, as xQc discovered while he was live on Twitch. xQc aghast after finding Hasan\u2019s editing tactic to avoid controversy While streaming on his Twitch channel, xQc came across a clip from Hasan\u2019s stream which showed him reacting to a video from CNN. However, Hasan gets up to go to the loo during the clip, leaving the video running while he\u2019s away from the camera. This was one of the biggest criticisms that both xQc and Hasan received; using content to retain viewers while they were AFK. In the clip though, the footage of an empty chair is replaced with footage of Hasan reacting as if he were still there, which caused xQc to double-take. He said: \u201cHold on. Chat, now hold on. Are you telling me that I reacted to an educational video about the whole ordeal, and I get canceled for reacting, and the same people are praising this guy? \u201cThis editor who went after me literally modified the f*cking video when [Hasan] goes offscreen.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
