Banning the entire Twitch platform in a country because of one influencer, a funny incident for a strange reason!
The Twitch platform is considered one of the best interactive platforms among users for video broadcasting specialized in video games, in addition to various digital content, and the platform was founded in 2011, which witnesses millions of visits, views, and broadcasts at the same time, and of course it is subject to very strict laws regarding political or racial content And ethnic and sensitive topics, to the extent that it became the most popular platform in the number of bans of the most famous influencers relentless.
Usually, it is possible for a “partner” account to be banned on the platform if the stipulated laws, policies, and rules are exceeded, either temporarily or permanently, but for the entire platform to be banned in a particular country, this has not happened before, the difference here The platform has been blocked by service providers and not by the platform itself.
The Twitch platform is almost completely banned in Slovakia, and the reason behind this is that an influencer named dDandis, a partner of the platform, with estimated followership of 35,000 followers, after broadcasting his views during a game of poker, which falls under the types of gambling in the country, and the result is more deprivation. More than five million people watched the platform because the two largest ISPs blocked the platform.

Only the dDandis account was supposed to be banned, but it would seem that the country’s confusing and massively strict policies regarding gambling and its promotion made them rush to ban the entire platform from the country.
On the other hand, according to the informed source, the Twitch platform is trying to resolve this issue with the Slovak government as soon as possible, as the platform believes that there is a misunderstanding about its policy with regard to the laws and rules stipulated.
At the present time, this issue has become a subject for laughter and ridicule on social networks in Slovakia, and until the ban on Twitch is lifted, they must look for alternatives to watch broadcasts.
