Adin Ross is calling upon Twitch to ban the controversial hot tub streams. Although Twitch started as a gaming platform in its earliest days, it very quickly evolved into something much bigger with people doing IRL streams, hosting talk shows, game shows, and much more. It’s a very unique platform and one that expanded so much over the years. One of the most controversial subsections of Twitch began in the last couple of years and revolved around mostly women streaming from hot tubs or inflatable pools, typically in bikinis. Many felt that this kind of content didn’t belong on the platform and was too suggestive, leading to all kinds of conversations about Twitch’s rules. Twitch eventually made an official rule allowing the streams within reason and ever since, the discourse has mostly died down.
