it is absolutely insane that record labels have put Twitch in a position to force streamers to delete their entire life's work, for some 10+ years of memories, and that Twitch has been incapable of preventing or aiding streamers for this situation. a total failure all around

as needed to be explained to the fake stadia employee loser, most game developers/publishers realized very early on that livestreaming and youtube was innovating the gaming industry forward. meanwhile the music industry has been fighting the internet for over 20 years. pathetic

while a youtuber or Twitch streamer union is still not really a realistic feasible option, if there was ever a time for content creators to come together for the right cause — to fight the absurd DMCA practices from the music industry for the betterment of everyone — it's now.
