Twitch faces backlash over new rules and bans.
Twitch's updated Terms of Service bans everyone from multi-streaming on "Twitch-like" platforms, including non-affiliates. The update keeps the same rules as the previous guidelines set for Affiliate and Partner streamers, allowing multi-streaming to mobile platforms like Instagram and TikTok. The guidelines do not prevent creators from streaming on other platforms separately from Twitch, but they cannot multi-stream to YouTube and Kick.
