Bans have also been handed down for more mundane reasons, like taking off your shirt after getting covered in tomato sauce or for spamming emotes on another streamer's channel. In the past, streamers have received bans for for using homophobic slurs, engaging in spousal abuse or driving while reading messages in chat. Moderators working for Twitch dole out punishments for reported streamers. "I hope people can trust our decisions, even if they disagree with them vociferously, and I encourage them to keep telling us where they think we got it wrong." "Our intent is to always make the Twitch community stronger and to make Twitch a better place for streamers to earn a living," Shear said. In an interview with Newsweek in May of 2018, co-founder and CEO Emmett Shear said that "Twitch has to act like the justice system to determine what's allowed and what isn't." Violence, harassment, breaking laws or even wearing clothing that's too revealing can result in reprimands ranging from a seven-day Twitch ban to a channel's permanent removal.

Update, 11:25AM ET : Twitch has now confirmed it has suffered a data breach.Twitch continues to struggle with moderation in 2019 Newsweek Moderation on Twitch Update, 7:35AM ET : The Verge can confirm leak is legitimate, and we have included more details on the data within the leak. Twitch has responded to the #DoBetterTwitch movement, and it’s a hashtag that the anonymous poster has used today to promote this leak.

TWITCH PORN PASSWORD
We’d recommend changing your Twitch password and enabling two-factor authentication on your account if you haven’t done so already. While Twitch has confirmed a data breach, it’s still unclear exactly how much data has been stolen.
TWITCH PORN CODE
In fact, the leaker seems to have focused on sharing Twitch’s own company tools and information, rather than code that would include personal accounts. The leak doesn’t appear to include password or address information on Twitch users, but that doesn’t mean this information hasn’t been obtained as part of this breach.

Video Games Chronicle reports that Twitch is aware of the breach, but the company has not yet informed its userbase. The leak is labelled as “part one,” suggesting there could be more to come.
