does twitch have any control over banning / not banning the streamers that got DMCA'd over playing that one song that we shall not mention? like can they just say "heck off we're not banning these streamers cause u guys are 12" or are they just legally forced to comply

they are forced to . That being said I want to warn streamers for falling for people claiming to have the rights trying to blackmail you , happened to me. The people who can actually get you banned will just dmca without warning

To be completely honest, game publishers can dmca you for streaming their game, obviously they won't because its free advertising for them, however it has happened before where a publisher didn't like pewdiepie's video and dmca'd his because of it so you're never safe :)

Twitch has a list of games (because of sexual content or violence), and Persona 5 because the creators would rather have people just play the game than watch somebody else play through. Plus it came out in Japan a long time before the US so mega spoiler ban.

Okay, i didn't know about the Persona 5 thing, this is probably the only game then that disallows streaming instead of enforcing copyright claims after the fact, good guy devs :)

A little while back a few streamers were banned for streaming halo online. I don’t think it was for copyright but I may be wrong
