Twitch has now reverted my channel back to how an offline page should look. Thank you. — NinjaInnit (@Ninja) August 11, 2019

4/ On a more personal note, I apologize want to apologize directly to @ninja that this happened. It wasn’t our intent, but it should not have happened. No excuses. — Emmett Shear (@eshear) August 11, 2019

Original article:

Last week, Ninja joined Mixer in a serious coup against Amazon's Twitch, leveraging an exclusivity deal with Microsoft. Ninja's presence on Mixer has already been a massive boost to the legitimacy of the platform, but has also helped raise up other Mixer streamers in the process.

It was a huge loss for Twitch, given that Ninja is credited with helping bring live game streaming into the mainstream. The move has legitimized Mixer to some degree, potentially giving Twitch some real competition for the first time. Up until now, Twitch hadn't really reacted to the move, but it has begun abusing Ninja's channel page on Twitch, turning it into an advertisement platform for other recommended streams — a "feature" which exists in no other pages on Twitch.

If that wasn't bad enough, Twitch added insult to injury by recommending a highly NSFW channel on the URL, which is undoubtedly frequented by youngsters. While Twitch is within its right to change its website as it sees fit, the fact it streamed adult content on Ninja's page without any form of age-gating potentially violates various laws. It shows how utterly haphazardly Twitch vomited this new "feature" onto its platform to take advantage of Ninja's dormant Twitch page, recommending streams completely incongruent with Ninja's brand.
