whitelist
Block all links automatically that are not trusted/owned by twitch and make the streamers manually add links they trust to a whitelist for whispers and their twitch chat
Noticed for the past 2 years that there has been active group DDoSing old school runescape streamers with fake lookalike ip grabbing links, like clipstwitch .live, imgur .us, gyazo .nl and yȯutube .com and they dont even get punished for it

A potential solution for this issue could be to implement a feature that automatically blocks all external links that are not from Twitch or trusted sources in both whispers and Twitch chat. Streamers could then manually whitelist specific URLs they trust. This would significantly reduce the risk of malicious links being shared, such as fake lookalikes used for phishing or DDoS attacks.
Streamers, especially those in vulnerable communities like OSRS, would benefit greatly from having more control over the links that appear in their channels, minimizing exposure to malicious activity without relying on Twitch's moderation alone. Visit https://tagschoool.com/ for more details.
