Controversial top streamer Kai Cenat can’t seem to catch a break. Just days after being accused of scamming a creative team for subathon ideas, he’s now facing similar accusations from fellow Twitch star Felix “xQc” Lengyel. Kai Cenat seemed to blow up overnight after doing a month-long subathon that was later revealed to have a lot of questionable moments, including the appearance of banned streamers, possible sexual acts, and other things that go against Twitch’s guidelines. Most recently, a member of a hired creative team claimed that a lot of the stream ideas during the subathon were theirs but Cenat never paid to use them. After seeing the accusations on Twitter, Cenat responded that he wasn’t even aware of the creative team or their Google Sheet full of ideas. But he’s now in trouble for stealing ideas once again. xQc demands Kai Cenat pay him for stealing ideas One of xQc’s livestream hobbies is checking the subreddit LivestreamFails, which is dedicated to streamer drama and cringe moments. While looking during his May 28 livestream, xQc came across a post all about Cenat allegedly scamming the creative team for subathon ideas. Instead of standing up for Cenat, the Juicer used the

Amouranth calls out companies advertising on deepfake sites, saying their "principles go out the door". After years of deepfake sites stealing images of popular streamers for their own benefit, Amouranth is calling them out. However, she isn't just going after the sites themselves, but the companies that fund them through advertising, keeping the business profitable. In a tweet thread, Kaitlyn Siragusa, better known as Amouranth on social media, called out a company she has worked with in the past for advertising on a site that created explicit deepfake material of herself. She says this is despite the unknown company apparently priding itself on being a progressive organisation, with Amouranth saying that their "principles go out the door in pursuit of bigger numbers." "It’s super shitty when a platform you worked with previously decides to run advertisements on top of your deepfakes," says Amouranth, in a statement on Twitter (spotted by Dexerto). "It reeks of desperation." While she isn't naming the company, she clarified that it wasn't Fansly or OnlyFans, sites she uses to share adult material that she has consented to and created herself. These deepfake sites not only threaten her business but completely breach her consent, putting her into
