Twitch updates attire policy to prohibit implied nudity.
3 years ago by King to c/technology
I've never used Twitch and never tried to keep up to date with anything related, but news about it are hard to miss nowadays. And from just my barely surface level exposure to it, it's so weird. It seems like they completely switch every few months or weeks from "we will allow nudity and even take steps to make it a thing on our platform" to "absolutely no nudity and everyone that tries till get banned".
What the fuck is going on?
My theory is that they're trying to find the perfect mix of horny gamers shelling out for bits and subs while staying just within the bounds of what advertisers will allow.
They just got pissed at people using censor bars on themselves to make it look like they were naked (in protest for Twitch backing down on their nudity policy).
Yes, it's a salty move, and yes, they're being assholes about it.
The thots are assholes right?
Because twitch is a gaming platform, not a PG-13 Onlyfans advertisement platform.
Or is it?

I swear everytime Twitch updates their policies for clarity, they just get even more confusing.
