We’re happy to announce that we have released an additional update to address these concerns. Streamers can now prevent their banned users from watching their livestreams. You can find and turn on this feature in the Moderation settings section of the Creator Dashboard, through the “Stop banned users from viewing stream” toggle.
Please note, this update 1). does not prevent users from watching livestreams from an incognito window or while logged out and 2). does not prevent users from viewing VODs, clips or highlights. We plan to explore extending the functionality of bans further, including but not limited to preventing VOD and clip playback.
In addition, we’ve made an update so that users that are blocked will now automatically be blocked from watching a streamer’s livestreams.
We will leave this thread open for your other points regarding preventing view of other content types and account creation.

How does twitch stop them from watching on their phone or using Starbucks wifi or a vpn? IP bans ARE a good additional step to help deter people, but please do not confuse an IP ban with guaranteed safety if they are implemented. IPs are trivial to change/spoof.
Locks only keep honest people out.

requiring 2fa is a better idea, do you *really* want twitch holding on to a scan of your driver's license? that's one data breach away from the whole internet having a scan of your driver's license.

Nothing makes me more excited to log on and stream like knowing that I'm helping create slop for some blockhead's environment destroying autocomplete script.
When I say 'excited' here, what I mean is excited to find another platform to stream on that does not do this.
