Twitch updates sexual content guidelines amid ‘topless’ meta backlash

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Oh no, almost visible tits!? Nono we can't have that, it'll morally bankrupt our audience.
Edit: apparently they're more lenient as long as it is properly tagged. Nice.
My only issue is that kids use the platform a lot and shouldn't be exposed to overly sexualised content when they're just looking for gaming content. Twitch apparently says they'll try to remove it from the front page but stuff inevitably gets though.
Sure, but you could have a setting which allows sexualised content to be accessed or showed. Or just a popup when entering the stream like it already does with mature streams or whatever they're called. You can have the streams only visible to people logged in, have people put their age on the account when making it (not sure if already a thing) and not show this stuff to people under 18. Yes you can just say you're 18 but in that case the kids do it deliberately and won't just stumble upon it. Have the parents do an underage account for them. Lots of options, and yes, the parents do have responsibility as well.
These things never work at all.
