TwitchCon Has New Rules to Keep Streamers and Fans Safe

Going to TwitchCon is amazing – you really get to see your favorite streamers in person and they’re often streaming their experiences as they walk around. But it’s also been a bit scary, honestly. Last October, something awful happened to Emiru, a popular streamer. She was assaulted during a meet-and-greet when a fan hugged her without her permission. After that, Twitch made it clear they won’t tolerate any harassment and said they’re working to make security better at future events. It’s good to hear they’re taking it seriously, but it definitely made me think twice about how things are handled.
