Twitch and its battle with hot-tub streamers has taken another turn with the introduction of the Pools, Hot-Tubs, and Beaches category. As expected, hot-tub streamers like Amouranth aren’t happy with the decision.

Amouranth’s rant against Twitch started when the latter abruptly suspended advertising on her channel because the content wasn’t ‘adviser friendly’. Ever since, the streamer has called out the platform for its lack of communication, and unclear Terms of Service. Naturally, she wasn’t expecting all her ads revenue to disappear from the Channel Analytics without any prior notice.

Moreover, others claimed that creating awareness in the youth regarding contraception is nonetheless an important issue.

However, it seems like the Pools, Hot-Tubs, and Beaches category is a big blow for hot-tub streamers. With this new category, the advertisers can control if they want to include or exclude the streams of hot-tub creators for the promotion of their products.

Considering that hot-tub streamers are the most controversial on Twitch at the moment, it won’t be a surprise if we witness a significant decrease in their ad revenue now.

As per Amouranth, the Pools, Hot-Tubs, and Beachers in an ineffective policy to control content by Twitch. The category is super specific, and will have negative consequences for any creator who becomes a part of it.

Regardless, Kaitlyn has promised that she’ll make the most out of the latest category:
