    Just give it a different domain or something, and have single sign-on enabled so users can easily move between services. If a country blocks one, users can use the rest.

      I heard a big issue with this is usually payment providers, Visa being a big one that has blocked processing based off nudity before. If they did do it like this, they would keep their income on the main site but, they likely would lose the ability to have income sources outside of advertising (the ones that still will) on the nude friendly version. At that point they likely just would just drop the service anyway cause it wouldn’t be profitable for them.

        I don’t see why they wouldn’t just have you buy credits or something. So you’d buy X “Twitch bucks,” which you could use for kids, regular, or adult parts of the site (the porn section, if it exists, could have a different payment system).

        Yes, but if there’s a supported method of posting content, I think fewer people would push the boundaries. Creators could even have one interface to manage all of their content, and then just pick the target audience for a given stream. Viewers could see all content for the given site and everything under it (so if you’re on “adult,” you’d see “twitch” and “kids” but not “porn”).

        Or something along those lines.

          But the people from countries where porn is banned are a huge source of revenue for the sexual streamers, that’s the point of doing it on twitch

            They should use a VPN. Or get creative . :)

            I don’t want to see adult content when I’m watching a stream a work or when my kids come ask me a question, so I want control over that. Splitting the app into groups where adult content is opt-in is a great way to do that.

              I’m just saying there’s a reason titty streamers are on a platform that is not for porn. There’s an audience of people who don’t use VPNs and can’t access porn, and it’s huge. So people will probably still try to access that audience on a safe for work only twitch like you’re suggesting.

                It’s really not that hard, here are some options:

                The first two are innocuous websites, but have access to porn. Kid me didn’t have any problem finding what I wanted on a “locked down” computer, and I’m sure people in repressive countries have options as well.

                I highly doubt Twitch would be allowed in regions where the above doesn’t work.
