Add Report Category for Accidental Live Streams
I recently came across a stream who appeared to have accidentally gone live. Their stream was broadcasting everything they were doing on their phone and revealing a lot of personal information. They were entering their phone number, passwords, and all sorts of sensitive information without understanding it was being streamed.
It is the stream of my viewers who appears to have difficulty with technology, and some of my mods were trying to reach out in discord or in their chat to get their attention. We all immediately reported, but there doesn't seem to be a category for this. 6+ hours later the stream is live, with no action taken. We tried report categories that were the closest, but the "revealing personal information" and "wrong category" do not seem be handled as quickly as some other report matters.
This kind of thing is time sensitive and it feels awful to see a friend dox themselves like this.

Oh no! Sorry to hear that Newbaroque! That's really kind of you and the other friends to try to contact the person to let them know.
A scenario I've seen happen many times is a streamer forgets to end stream after raiding. Especially as Mods and other trusted friends in the communities that we're part of, we need a better way to alert Trust & Safety that a stream needs to be ended - without the streamer being penalized.
