Yes, but if there's a supported method of posting content, I think fewer people would push the boundaries. Creators could even have one interface to manage all of their content, and then just pick the target audience for a given stream. Viewers could see all content for the given site and everything under it (so if you're on "adult," you'd see "twitch" and "kids" but not "porn").
Or something along those lines.
But the people from countries where porn is banned are a huge source of revenue for the sexual streamers, that's the point of doing it on twitch
They should use a VPN. Or get creative . :)
I don't want to see adult content when I'm watching a stream a work or when my kids come ask me a question, so I want control over that. Splitting the app into groups where adult content is opt-in is a great way to do that.
I'm just saying there's a reason titty streamers are on a platform that is not for porn. There's an audience of people who don't use VPNs and can't access porn, and it's huge. So people will probably still try to access that audience on a safe for work only twitch like you're suggesting.
It's really not that hard, here are some options:
The first two are innocuous websites, but have access to porn. Kid me didn't have any problem finding what I wanted on a "locked down" computer, and I'm sure people in repressive countries have options as well.
I highly doubt Twitch would be allowed in regions where the above doesn't work.
You're overestimating the technical competency of people looking to twitch streams to jack off. If they could do all that, they'd already be on porn sites.
