In 2020, Twitch abruptly removed one of its most prominent streamers, Dr Disrespect<\/strong>, from its platform. Four years after his permanent ban, two former employees of the platform have decided to break their silence<\/strong> and reveal the reasons behind this controversial measure.<\/p>\n\n\n

One of them, anonymously explained to The Verge<\/a> that Beahm had used the Whisper<\/strong> feature (Twitch’s now-extinct private messages) to exchange messages with a minor<\/strong> and meet her at TwitchCon<\/strong>. This former employee belonged to the platform’s security team in 2020, the year of the ban.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statements of this former worker also coincide with those of Cody Conners<\/strong>, another former employee of Twitch who worked on the strategic partnerships team. Last Friday, Conners posted on his X profile, which, although not directly pointing to Beahm, does seem to allude to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There, he claims that “he was banned because he was caught sending sexual messages to a minor through the then-existing Twitch whispers<\/strong>. He was trying to meet her at TwitchCon. Those who received them could read (the conversation) in plain text.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He got banned because got caught sexting a minor in the then existing Twitch whispers product. He was trying to meet up with her at TwitchCon. The powers that be could read in plain text.

Case closed, gang.<\/p>— Cody Conners (@evoli) June 22, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote>
