Dr Disrespect Demands Twitch Unban Him After New Rule Changes
Following these disclosures, Dr Disrespect encountered a significant amount of criticism from both his viewers and fellow streaming personalities. This backlash led multiple businesses, such as the San Francisco 49ers and Turtle Beach, to distance themselves from him. YouTube also removed him from its Partner Program, prompting a break in his streaming activities. He resumed streaming in September 2024 and addressed the controversy, stating that the individual involved was of age at the time. More recently, Twitch has made adjustments to its ban policies, allowing streamers who have been indefinitely banned to appeal their case six months after the ban.
