   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 to express themselves and define their content.

   Our goal is to have more to share with you about the tags feature later this year.

   "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."

   Let me reword that: We don't care about the misuse of tags; we'll take actions against them when they break a different rule.

   I can't wait to see streamers lie about having ADHD and Autism in their tags without any repercussions.

   Using invalid tags is a breach of terms of service that people have to go out of their way to commit, and should be punished as such. Nobody would be fine with a person falsely setting their tags to LGBT or Black for "clout" or "the meme"; this is no different.
