Twitch’s new unlicensed gambling ban takes effect today.
After a number of high-profile streamers threatened to boycott, Twitch announced new limits on gambling streams that are taking effect today.
However, as Ash Parrish wrote when they were announced, they don’t block everything:
There will be a carveout permitting sports betting, fantasy sports, and poker, while the streaming of slots, roulette, and dice is only prohibited if the websites streamed aren’t “licensed in the U.S. or other jurisdictions that provide sufficient consumer protection.”
