That comparison would only make sense if that was happening, which it isn’t.
Twitch has been essentially a soft core version of these girls’ only fans for a while now, and their adult content has been put in front of children, unconsentually.
Ffs, these changes are to help stop the blatantly sexual thumbnails from being shown on the front page
And yea, twitch knows they bring in money and so won’t do anything to stop them, but this will make the whole “protect the children” thing 10x worse, as twitch actively targets younger viewers and so do these adult “performers”
Or, just maaaaybe, it deserves to be in its own space, away from children, and these labels are only going to help with the appearance of that, and not the actual issue
You’re strawmanning drying to defend this, and I don’t understand why you’re triggered so hard
Twitch is a monopoly in the live streaming video space. So unconditionally yes, blocking nudity for five minutes should get every asset Amazon owns seized for abusing that position.
There’s loads of precedent for hate speech not constituting protected speech, so that’s not an issue.
Goddamn, your head is so far up your ass on this you’ve forgotten reality exists!
Twitch is not a streaming monopoly
Even if it was, banning nudity would not be any kind of infringement due to how many other nudity specific competitors absolutely exist
And even if they didn’t, aren’t they “a private company, they can ban who they want when they want!” Like you just justified with hate speech, while completely forgetting that censorship of nudity has longer and more established president in much more monopolistic environments?
Seriously, get some fresh air. Breathing all those fumes isn’t good for your health.

This rule was an attempt to make it more clearly labeled, so yes, it’s exactly what it’s about.
It absolutely has every right to exist.
Where the fuck is this “right to exist” shit coming from
You’re attacking an argument I never made
You’re attacking their effort to formally label it without punishing it.
Thinking it doesn’t deserve to exist is the only possible cause for that.

“It can exist, but not here” by monopolies is by far the most effective method of censorship available in the modern era.
Megalithic companies like payment processors and Twitch should straight up not be permitted to ban classes of content.
Payment processors, sure, but how the fuck do you lump twitch in there?
Should they be prohibited from banning Nazi streams, too?? That’s protected free speech, after all.
