Sneako permanently banned from Twitch, sources confirm

Sneako, a controversial content creator known for his online commentary, has been permanently banned from Twitch.

The platform made the decision to remove Sneako’s account after multiple violations of its community guidelines, though the specific reasons for the ban were not immediately disclosed. The ban, which was confirmed by sources familiar with the situation, marks Sneako’s complete removal from Twitch.

According to Dexerto, the specific reasons for Sneako’s permanent ban have not been publicly disclosed, but his history of pushing the boundaries of acceptable content on various platforms has been widely discussed. Sneako, who previously built a substantial following on YouTube before facing bans there for spreading misinformation about COVID-19 and the 2020 U.S. elections, has sparked controversy across social media.

Twitch has not commented directly on the ban, but sources confirm that it is permanent. Sneako, who had previously attempted a return to YouTube only to be banned again within 24 hours, now finds himself barred from yet another major platform. His controversial views and statements have made him a divisive figure, with some criticizing Twitch for allowing him to remain on the platform as long as he did.

Other streamers, including xQc, have weighed in on Sneako’s content. xQc previously commented that Sneako’s opinions and behavior would not be tolerated on other platforms, adding to the debate over the role of content moderation in the streaming industry.
