This first step addresses streamers on Twitch, but still no word on non-streamers in the wider community. Will they be barred from Twitch social events? Will Twitch continue to do business with their companies? What are they going to do when the low-hanging fruit is gone? https://twitter.com/Twitch/status/1275972814898524161

Here are some scenarios:

Twitch has a partnership agreement with an esports team. Twitch finds an accusation against their CEO credible and issues a ban, but the CEO refuses to resign. What does Twitch do to the deal? What if it's a non-public-facing position like a CFO?

Another:

A buyer purchases a seven-figure advertising campaign on Twitch. Twitch finds an accusation against the buyer credible, but the buyer remains in his position. Does Twitch still take the money? What happens to the seller's commission since they're under Amazon now?

Another:

Twitch signs a Twitch Prime deal with a game developer. Twitch finds an accusation against a senior executive of that game developer credible, but the senior executive remains. Will they cancel the deal after development work has already been completed and paid for?

Banning streamers who admit their guilt is easy, but what about when business goals clash with streamer safety? Business goals impact P&Ls and careers of department heads who don't answer to the community. Business goals have powerful advocates; who advocates for the streamers?

Many of these clashes aren't public, and they’re owned by employees who won't be at Twitch forever. But to many streamers, Twitch is more than a job - Twitch is home. What internal systems and processes are protecting that home? That’s where we’ll find out Twitch's true values.
