Twitch wants everyone to know that if you are caught promoting cheating in Pokémon GO, you will receive a strike on your account. After that, I'm sure you will get a stern warning, followed by a strongly worded letter. Eventually you will probably be given a slap on the wrist or a time out. Go get em' Twitch! :rolleyes:

Recently we issued a statement that streaming content on our services which violates third-party terms of service or other user agreements is a violation of our own Terms of Service. This also includes cheating in online multiplayer games as defined and enforced by the game developer. Today we would like to make clear that this policy also holds true for Pokémon GO content on Twitch.
 
they the world police now?

So, people don't realise that Twitch, and other websites are voluntarily offering you a service. They can remove that service for LITERALLY any reason they feel like. They can pull it because they don't like your face. Hell, they can do it on racial or religious terms: realistically they would never do that because it's the bad kind of bad publicity, but they LEGALLY CAN, because they are not taking away anything, rather they are choosing to discontinue giving it.

it's fine if they do, someone else will have a start up, become big and eat their lunch.
Literally every company/service does this. Starts off small, attracts everyone. Then they start doing things because they have the market share of users. Eventually they piss people off and then they migrate to something new.
This literally won't make Twitch any money. Multiplayer games's TOS have nothing to do with streaming.

Oh please go on and explain how a service that encourages streaming cheats is going to eat Twitch's lunch. Can't wait to watch people stream aim bots and hacks all day! :rolleyes:
 
What would be the motivation for someone to cheat on Pokemon go? Only thing dumber than actually playing it would be to cheat.
 
I have never played the game but why would you want to cheat? Just to be lazy?
