Twitch faces backlash and boycotts over ad policies.
TL;DR
Dr Disrespect has taken a swipe at Twitch over their planned changes to branded content that have sparked outrage in the streaming community. Twitch's new branded content guidelines include limiting on-screen adverts to 3% of the screen size. The Doc, who was mysteriously banned on Twitch back in 2020, tweeted "Purple snakes slitherin" in response to the plans. Twitch has since backtracked on the plans and will be "reevaluating" the rule around 3% logos on-screen.
