DisguisedToast: people ‘too scared’ and ‘don’t want to risk their livelihood’ streaming copyrighted works

According to a popular streamer DisguisedToast, some Twitch broadcasters are apprehensive about re-broadcasting movies and TV series on the platform. During last night’s broadcast, the content creator talked about the so-called “streaming meta”, which deals with the streaming of movies or shows, from Super Chef arrive Lord of the Rings—And risk asking for the DMCA despite warnings from Twitch staff.

“People started watching Super Chef, but why don’t you guys watch anything else? “Toast asked the rhetorical question. Squid fishing game.

“It’s like the word glass game Squid fishing game,” Toast said. “You see a guy jump on a glass and he doesn’t fall to the ground dead and people jump on it.” Using analogy, Super Chef quickly gained popularity after streamers like xQc and Hasanabi “made the leap” to see if the reaction to the TV show would be banned.

After some streamers take the metaphorical jump and see no consequences, there’s a sense of anxiety over who’s going to be next to jump. However, according to Toast, people are “too scared” to take chances and “don’t want to risk their lives”.

“So I came here on Naruto glasses,” he said. “You know what? fuck it. I’m going to jump on the windowpane.” So far without a ban and without any DMCA statements, Toast is upbeat, saying, “It’s only been a week and it’s been a while. still not broken, now what? mizkif saw that and said ‘oh, isn’t that broken? Well, what about Avatar Glass box? ‘”

Countless streamers have pioneered streaming strategies. These shows and movies seem to be fair game, at least until the companies start cracking down with DMCA claims — which, Twitch warns, can happen at any time.
