Misinformation, conspiracy theories, election fraud, and CCP Virus disinformation -- oh, sorry, I meant COVID-19 disinformation are among the various buzzwords that Amazon-owned Twitch is fighting per article.

I'm rather surprised that they felt this was necessary. I don't think they have many (any?) prominent conservative streamers there these days.
Maybe they just want to signal that Twitch is safe from 'bad actors' to grow their social credit score.
All I can see that would change there is their mods get a bevy of reports about some streamers/podcasters for like 3-4 days and then back to business as usual.

Going to report any streamer who says something like 'the vaccines are safe and effective'. Not that the average normie even wants to bring it up it any more, they're all far too intellectually pussified to defend a position so indefensible that even the MSM invented a war to distract from it.

I think I saw another article saying that a lot of Twitch executives are leaving the company too.
