Twitch needs to do something about the gambling. Twitch is a site primary for gaming content and gambling does not belong on this site.

A large amount of viewers on Twitch are young kids that are impressionable. It is unethical for streamers to be promoting gambling to viewers that are underage.

Gambling is highly addictive and it can ruin the lives of those that do not have the self-control to stop gambling.

Loot boxes and pokemon cards are one thing. But when top creators actively promote slot machine gambling to kids, this trend has gone way too far.
Gambling is an easy addiction to fall into, and has ruined countles lives. Promoting or displaying it to kids will change the way many kids think about it.
I believe that it is neccessary for Twitch to either ban this behaviour or put in some sort of protection. (e.g. age gate and Gambling ruins lives Warning)
