Users who are not signed in can go into Mature Content channels
Hey,
Since I couldn't find a category for it in Support, I will put it as a bug/idea.
When you don't login into twitch you can simply enter names of "mature content" channels and browse freely.
I tested it on Smart TVs, phones, PCs and went to several known "mature content" (18+) channels and watched freely.
This means any kid can watch freely that content.
I recommend enforcing it that Mature Content requires Age + Mail verification.

Twitch allowed nudity on art streams and now the category is all anime and furry pron and just one click away for kids to find it. Twitch really needs to gate mature rated streams with a login at the very least.
This should be very easy to implement and it would be great for gambling streams too since those are also not appropriate for children.
I have nothing against any of this content but twitch should do the bare minimum to mitigate the amount of children already using their website accessing mature content so easily.

Please do not allow streams containing mature content to be publicly viewed or displayed on your main page without a user logging in. Currently there is quite an abundance of mature content streams that appear on your main page on a regular basis including those that are viewed as sexual in nature and can be viewed by anyone without even logging into Twitch. This can be considered a serious violation of community guidelines as many underage children are being allowed access to the mature content that your site is displaying.
