Twitch Quickly Reverses New Artistic Nudity Policy After Streamer Violations
-
Twitch announced and then quickly reversed a new policy allowing "artistic nudity" on the platform after just 2 days.

The policy change followed a trend of women using camera angles to appear topless while streaming.
-
Twitch cited concerns over AI-generated deepfakes and realistic fake nude images as reasons for walking back the rules.

The original goal was to be more responsive to requests from the artist community for more creative freedom.

Some streamers violated the short-lived rules, leading Twitch to remove content and enforce discipline.
