One of the latest features added to Twitch was the promotion of paid streaming channels, an event that fans could try to replace live tips with their favorite content creators, allowing them to purchase subscriptions and bits. highlight and make these channels visible on the main page of the platform.

Although it all started normally, which is actually quite a popular feature, some users soon started using this feature circumvent platform security measures and alert retransmissions of adult content. This is how they shared it from PC Gamer, one of the first to notice the event.

Starting March 30, users Twitter and Reddit they started finding porn channels on their front pages, both with live broadcasts and screen sharing with content from websites such as PornHub; all accompanied by this new prominent label, which categorizes them as “supported by the streamer community.”

The company itself through a statement shared by a representative, confirmed that testing of the “Boost Train” project would stop immediately and without a specific return date, due to security issues that occurred during testing. Although this statement explicitly avoided mentioning this type of adult content, there is no doubt that it is the main reason.

So now the users’ doubts are in place little uncertainty as to whether Twitch will cancel this project or try to find any security measures to avoid these problems (apart from its own account detection and blocking algorithm) due to the great interest this function has generated in supporting small streamers.
