This is surely a double standard by twitch. If they have decided to allow artistic nudity is same as pornography because those are going to be explicit pictures running in the mind of people including children. Nudity and gambling are suppose to be to the exclusive reserve of adults but with such nudity, children are going to be at risk.

To stream art works with naked bodies is only going to corrupt children more and the reason for banning gambling on their platform is more or less defeated.
Last time, I heard/saw someone which states that nudity is a kind of art. While this is my first time hearing the term "artistic nudity" here. I think this is where the nude models are being painted, or their body are being inked. Maybe this is the ones who were allowed, because the audience can't still see the full naked body of the models.

However, in the eyes of others, especially to the gamblers and gambling streamers, who are once removed, and affected in the decision made by Twitch last time to gambling, they aren't happy with it. Twitch only gave them another weapon to attack them more. But as usual, Twitch can only ignore them.

Actually, if you look even deeper into the concept of Artistic nudity, you will realize it is not only applied to body paint or ink. It is more about nudity not having the explicit purpose to turn lustful feeling in the expectator, but rather being part of a representation of art. Some examples include artistic depictions of nudity in marble statues or paintings where a naked woman is featured, being one of the oldest representations the body of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and fertility.
So if Twitch rules stay the way they are so people are allowed to stream artistic nudity, in theory, there will be artist further encouraged to stream the creation of pornography and at the same time they won't be able to be banned because they could argue whatever they are going is an artistic representation.
It is truly a slap on the face against people who got banned from Twitch for minor things like swearing or doing content which was alledgely not Family friendly, all while this is going on.

If they choose to allow any form of nudity, then it is up the company to decide, does not make it double standards.
Yes, just like a father who has two sons with one year difference between them, but since an early age, only one is allowed to go to birthday's parties, choose what to eat on breakfast, play videogames as long as he want during the day, while the other has to strictly follow a routine of studies, eating and discipline.

The father doesn't have double standards towards the education of his children. It's just that he is in the charge of the situation, so he can do as he wish. Tongue

Seems like they just were playing at the market. As we know nudity is more dangerous than gambling. it actually damages the mentality of young people rather than playing gambling which is similar to games. We don't know how much money Twitch gets from the nudity company. That is possible a lot because that industry always grows up the same as gambling itself. Now, from here we can actually see that Twitch is just a company that is only money-oriented, Maybe gambling does not give them too much money then show up the naked girl on video.


Everyone have a plan and budgets to executes every season, there's no resting until one succeeds in ensuring he makes good amounts daily, weekly, monthly and yearly from the lay down investment. There are times we give up but do bounce back because we just gave to keep pushing for excellent results. Twitch can be generating 10x of what gambling gives them because nudity spreads so fast before anyone could notice. They know the exact amounts they produce daily, If they didn't produce good results, then I think they won't bother to abandon gambling fro nudity.

Why do you think gambling has been being treated in a different manner by Twitch?

Ironically, now artistic nudity is allowed (And who is going to define the limit between what is artistic and what is pornography?)!

Here we can see the double standards of Twitch's developers. Gambling was condemned as something outrageous, but nudity is fine as family friendly content...

Why do you think gambling has been being treated in a different manner by Twitch?
Let me say that Twitch has the right to do whatever it wants to do and also interpret views as it wants to act accordingly. But they certainly cannot tell me that they have the perfect justification for banning gambling and allowing nudity. Is it for addictions? People can be addicted to both, and to be more elaborate, nudity attracts more people to addiction than gambling, and the same goes for the sales of the company. Maybe that is why they opted for it as they still have nothing to lose in this package.

Nudity, especially for the young generation is so addictive, that's what they love most, and only for it, they might be the core fans of Twitch. However, the only argument Twitch can claim against gambling is that, in addition to its addictive capability, people may still waste money engaging in it, and this could cause a whole lot of psychological issues. But for the nudity, people might be tempted to come often but will have nothing huge to waste like money or have some kind of depression that gambling addiction could cause. Above all, the two could have been allowed since they are both allowed legally, only that they should issue a disclaimer in line with that of gambling so that people know the risk involved, not entirely banning it.

Both nudity and gambling are harmful in their own ways, especially when the content viewer is not of age and can't take some decisions for themselves, as it might mislead them in negative ways.
 
When it comes to nudity, we might see it as something that might be kept off the internet or made public based on our personal views and interests, but then again, whether we like it or not, these things really need to be made public, up to some extent. To some point, they are education, depending on how the person who has access to the information wants to treat it.
 
In the aspect of gambling, they are also good and bad, and I don't judge anyone who wants to limit it from their publications; it's their world; they can decide what they consider healthy and what they shouldn't.

Yes, I recall when Twitch banned gambling from the platform and I was aware of the new Terms of the platform about nudity. Honestly, it has become a very strange and ironic situation, because people were not able to gamble on there but now some days ago I started to watch people reacting to the new content which is allowed in Twitch and it has turned into a literal soft core pornography webside.
I saw an artist streamer drawing on line furry pornography art I also saw another female Vtuber displaying explicit drawings of her avatar to her subscribers and every time she received a donation started to jiggle the boobs of her avatar to the camera.

It is simply surreal. I do not even know what Amazon/Twitch is expecting to ge money off this and at the same time continue to hold their alleged values of a platform which is supposed to be family friendly. Yesterday I read rumors they have already backpedaled and have reversed the decision on allowing pornography on Twitch. The lesson we can get from all this mess: a slot machine is apparently more dangerous to teen than copious amounts of pornography is. Messy.

So they explore other routes. It wouldn't surprise me if they decided to go full onlyfans next to make their shareholders more profit.

when money is what motivates them, that could be a plan in motion. what doesn't make sense is that the casino streamers were sacked, they didn't make money from those gambling streamers?

nude art or not, i don't think it will still be a family-oriented photo. anyone looking at a picture even the nude art on deviantart.com can give you a boner. so it doesn't matter how they distinguish art and porno. twitch is not even a site for art but whatever they say.

i don't think this site will be a family-oriented site anymore as based from the OP's link, in one of the statements -

"Creators can now also stream video highlighting their "breasts, buttocks or pelvic region" the Amazon-owned site has announced."

now, do you really think that is a family-oriented one? but they will say it is just artistic approach on things. people are really losing their minds.  Roll Eyes for sure they will rack good money from this move, as people who are into this thing have now a very good reason as they can easily say, they are just doing this for art sake or they can claim it as their artistic way of things. such a very subjective approach.

next time, people are going to this streaming platform not because of some game or sports, but because of this "artistic" side of the users.

Gambling was not condemned as outrageous. As i vaguely remember the story, it was banned for something that had to do with big influencers and their attitude towards the platform, or something related to that. This was not a moral stand at any point.

If they choose to allow any form of nudity, then it is up the company to decide, does not make it double standards.

Yes, their business then its their rules on which it would be applied.It is really just that we cant really be able to avoid on not to say something basing up with those decisions or things that they've been doing specially into those people who had been using Twitch before specially on gambling streams and other correlated things on which they've decided to ban it out due to some issues or whatever reasoning it would be and now that they are allowing out that kind of nudity then it cant really be avoided that it would be raising up some eyebrows basing up into the decision that they had made.
If we arent really that liking on what Twitch is doing now, well we do have some options on making use of other platforms as well. It would really be that always falls down into someones preference
i should say.

Twitch see gambling as something evil bit they have seen artist nudity as something good to the public, this is unfair as a lot of teens below 18 will be tempted by those sculpture or arts. I see that they believe that they will have more customers than that of gambling and that was why they came up with this strategy no to lose out in business. They are doing this for money and nothing more, but I prefer gambling to this. Both gambling and light porn have their own side effect.

I see this as part of their lost fight. They counted on the vision that even if some users will leave, there will come "better" users to replace them, so they get more revenue from non-gamblers family-value types. But there's one flaw in that plan. And that is counting on the hope that anyone will come to their site. So shareholders are starting to get nervous as big sites die all the time because of bad decisions. So leadership wants to relax some other rules, but not the rule about gambling, because reversing that would make it seem like it was under incompetence leadership.

So they explore other routes. It wouldn't surprise me if they decided to go full onlyfans next to make their shareholders more profit.

There may be a reason why nudity is allowed by Twitch developers while gambling is not because gambling can have a greater negative effect on people who gamble more often. People who gamble more often can experience various problems after they gamble and this can impact the people around the gambler. So Twith developers probably think that gambling should not be allowed. Meanwhile, nudity may be truly artistic. But we need to find out why Twitch did this so we can only guess.

The real reason why gambling ban on twitch is because some streamers are asking for funding to their viewers which cause harm to their consumers. It’s not about being family friendly but rather the potential harm of gambling to the user of their platform that might cause them some lawsuit once affected users already file a complaint.

On the other hand, Artistic nudity is allowed in every social media platform. I don’t find them wrong as a man because it’s not a direct porno. Besides Twitch is not a family friendly platform tho.

I don't usually get why you need to post like this. It's clear that Twitch allows only "Adult content such as nude drawings and sculptures are now permitted on streaming site Twitch - as long as it is deemed artistic.". Twitch only allows what they consider to be "artistic" nudity in the form of drawings and sculptures.
Hmm, really? I've seen some hot pictures of naked women on Youtube videos talking about this Twitch's last update. Cheesy

Gambling content on social media like Twitch can be misleading because people often fake their winnings to promote their affiliate links and attract more players. Twitch has a policy against gambling content to protect its young audience. Because gambling can be harmful, and Twitch wants to make sure their users stay safe. They value their users and want to provide a responsible environment for them.
Well, it's a private company, as others said: their company, their rules. But it's undeniable their reasonings don't make any logical sense...

If the problem are fake screenshots of big winnings and scammers deceiving others through a successful gambler image, the correct is to fight the misinformation, like X social media has been doing in a transparent format, always pointing out when the information shared is false.

Now, it's contradictory to protect the young audience against gambling, but expose it to potential pornography. By the law this kind of content is only for +18 years old.



Nothing we say here will change anything at all, but it's valid to keep practicing the critical thinking capacity for YOURSELF in first place, so you don't resume your existence into becoming a fool or a sheep.

There are still many platforms besides Twitch where gambling is free to be promoted and perhaps we know that gambling and nudity are very dangerous for minors, which is why Twitch should not prohibit gambling content and should limit or filter users so that it cannot be accessed by minors because it is very vulnerable if it is seen and studied by minors, besides of course the way they prohibit it will only reduce their income and even their income will definitely decrease, especially since gambling is a very profitable business.

I think Twitch will also withdraw the ban on gambling in the future if in the end this nudity content is allowed by them, because I don't think gambling content is something scary for anyone because again, if Twitch bans it, it doesn't mean it can prevent it. people to gamble instead they will try other platforms where they can find gambling content and still gambling users are increasing every day, there is no big impact from the ban either  Wink

Not a long time ago, we had a lot of news and discussions on this forum about Twitch platform censoring gambling lives and content, due to their decision to keep the social media "family friendly".

Ironically, now artistic nudity is allowed (And who is going to define the limit between what is artistic and what is pornography?)!

Twitch revamps rules on sexual content

this makes me laugh real hard, Like they banned gambling but allowed artistic nudity, seems like promoting pornography? and a lot of people here says that gambling is more harmful than nudity when we all know that this is both wrong and it is inappropriate because there's still young people who can view that kind of topic. Well, we have no right to protest about that, maybe those persons behind twitch is a fan of sexual things.

Things that are considered moral standards will gradually be replaced by benefits, and that is not too strange. The story of freedom in any field will be appreciated by everyone, but it will lose its general balance. There will be people who see it as disgusting, but on the contrary, there will also be people who accept it.

Similar to gambling, it is a social platform, but some countries still consider this activity illegal, so as long as players are responsible and within the rules. I also think that there will be negative effects, but if awareness is raised, the negative side can become just a fact of life.
