The live video broadcasting platform "Twitch" puts an end to the video broadcasting trend from the hot tub that has been sweeping the platform in recent weeks.
Star Caitlin Cyrus, known as "Amouranth", has announced that the platform has blocked the possibility of showing commercials on its broadcasts, the star's main income.
Amouranth is considered one of the biggest stars on the platform, with over 3 million followers, and she leads the "hot tub trend".

In the controversial trend, women wear bikinis and chat with followers for hours, each time from a hot tub or inflatable pool.
"Yesterday I was informed that Twitch had stopped posting on my channel indefinitely. They did not try to help in any way. I had to initiate the call after I noticed, without any prior notice. So in fact, all the revenue from the channel was gone."
It should be noted that the platform was set up mainly for gamers who broadcast their video games in real time, and it allows to chat with the gamer in real time and send him money as well.

Although the platform was set up for gamers, the broadcast trend from the hot tub has blossomed recently, and some of the videos have been removed for violating community guidelines that explicitly prohibit content with sexual innuendos.
According to the Statista website, 38 percent of all Twitch users in the U.S. are between the ages of 10 and 19, and some argue that there is no place for such videos on a platform aimed at young audiences.

Only recently was the streamer "Imagesmin" (I am Jasmine) blocked on one of its broadcasts, she was photographed in the Jacuzzi when her clothes were accidentally removed and she was exposed in front of the cameras.
The American network 'Supcaitlin' was also blocked after she wore "inappropriate" clothes during her live broadcast.
The network star was blocked from broadcasting after Twitch received a "flood" of reports.
Supcaitlin has more than 53,000 followers, and it also makes live broadcasts from the hot tub, a trend that has been gaining popularity in recent months, and has not yet been banned by the Twitch platform, which was originally set up to broadcast computer games.
