Moderator Chat HighLights and Suspicious Users
When a suspicious user marked as restrict types in chat, others can´t view the message, except the streamer and moderators.
The problem is that streamer can read it during a live stream, specially in a crowded chat even with moderator chat highlights.
Right now there is no great difference for chat highlights between a restricted user and a monitored user. I know that text color is different, but highlight caption is always Suspicious User.
I suggest a different color for moderator highlight as well as a new caption for this situation.
And if possible, an option to disable this type of messages for streamer/moderators, replacing it by an alert message such as "disabled message".

The current handling of restricted users in chat could use refinement, especially during busy live streams where streamers may unintentionally read harmful messages despite moderator chat highlights. Although there is a slight color distinction between restricted and monitored users, the uniform “Suspicious User” caption adds confusion. Introducing a unique color and caption for restricted users would help moderators identify them more clearly. Additionally, providing an option to disable these messages entirely for streamers and moderators—replacing them with a neutral alert like “disabled message”—would add a critical layer of protection. For instance, just as https://tocalifesworld.com/old-versions-toca-life-world/ offers access to safer, curated versions of its app, Twitch should offer streamers better control over message visibility to maintain a healthier chat environment.

Totally agree had a similar issue during a stream on https://pearllemongames.ca/, and it got messy fast with restricted messages slipping through.
