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.

Hi, thanks for flagging this and sharing your suggestion.
We share and understand your concerns about how the intentional, repeated misuse of tags can undermine the purpose of the tags product itself. Tags are an important discoverability feature for communities, and a powerful way for all Creators—but especially those that are underrepresented—to express their personal identity and creative vision for their content.
We also do not feel Twitch should be the judge of Creators’ personal or creative identity, so we typically only enforce against the misuse of tags when it is associated with other behavior that violates our Community Guidelines such as hateful conduct or harassment.
That said, as the VTuber community’s experience demonstrates, there are limitations to this approach and we are actively investigating additional steps we can take to protect and improve the integrity of the tags feature at scale, without infringing on good faith Creators’ personal choice…

Seeing almost exclusively irl streamers consistently pop up when looking for Vtubers is getting really really annoying. Misuse of the tag as a joke can be funny maybe once, but out of jealousy or spite is super childish. Most of them make content that’s way out of my interest and comfort zone (looking at you, ********** asmr streamers), making it harder for me to find new content and streamers I do enjoy.

GenAI and its glorification always strikes me as unintelligent and lazy, and I know many people share this view. Most vtubers and other streamers, including some very large creators, have been very vocal about their negative stance on AI. With the amount of people who loudly oppose its use, I’m always baffled by how little corporations seem to care about their user base.
