Entertainment - #Twitch streamers panic as clips feature triggers copyright notices: ABC News 9.26M subscribers

ABC News’ Romina Puga reports on how fan-made clips are putting streamers on the Twitch platform in trouble through DMCA notices, and how Twitch is responding.

How it feels to wake up today when your stream is centered around being there and helping people move through all of the troubles we're enduring as a world right now.

Kind of sucks because there's not much of a middle ground there, and I want to do both.#TWITCHBLACKOUT pic.twitter.com/RW4PLxMMAM

I'm live! Gonna work on DMG and talk about #TWITCHBLACKOUT. Id rather talk about it than not stream, I feel like that's more important and it's nice to see many creators up to it feeling the same way 🙏❤️ https://t.co/cNIrmiyizG pic.twitter.com/7LJU9L22YC

I am streaming tomorrow, 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲

If you're not streaming tomorrow, 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲.

Assuming streamers '𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲' because they're not participating in the #twitchblackout is a false dichotomy.

Look it up. Stop being ignorant.
