Image via Nintendo We’ve evolved as a society beyond canceling individuals for outrageous behavior or harmful comments, and instead discovered a loophole that bans Twitch streamers from watching verified content within the confines of copyright laws. And that’s exactly what happened to Alanah Pearce, a Sony Santa Monica employee as well as Australian streamer known as charalanahzard. According to a recent tweet from Pearce, she was suspended “mid-stream” on Twitch after reacting to preview footage from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that had been certified by Nintendo itself as safe for viewing without breaching 1998’s Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The footage originated from the YouTuber known as Skill Up, real name Ralph, who makes online content involving video games to promote them as an art form. And what’s worse, Pearce didn’t even source the content herself, she was just reacting to it, so if these concerns are well-founded, shouldn’t Skill Up be facing the consequences? Here’s what Pearce initially wrote: “lol my Twitch just got suspended mid-stream because I was reacting to @SkillUpYT‘s Zelda preview video.” Essentially, Nintendo informed Pearce that she was breaching the DMCA for reviewing the content, despite it being pre-approved by the company

xQc is in the middle of a challenge to try and beat fellow Twitch streamer Forsen’s Minecraft speedrunning record, but his recent run ended with quite a hilarious mistake. Minecraft “any%” remains to be one of the most popular speedrunning categories for both newcomers to the scene and its veterans. All thanks to the ease of getting into running the game, with more than plenty of room left for skill expression and mastery of the game’s mechanics once one becomes an expert on the speedrun. xQc and Forsen communities started a fierce rivalry between the two creators years ago, egging them to take on each other’s speedrunning record for Minecraft. In January of 2023, xQc finally beat Forsen’s record after two years of trying but Forsen clapped back by shaving two whole minutes off of it two months later. xQc has been working on beating Forsen’s time ever since, with a couple of close calls along the way. But tragedy struck when his latest promising run ended when xQc crafted 16 golden helmets by accident, depleting all the gold bars he needed to proceed. xQc’s misclick costs him a promising Minecraft speedrun xQc made it to Nether in an impressive amount of time
