On November 30, 2022, Twitch streamer Lucas found himself in trouble after Twitch banned him from the platform. Apparently, the franchise claimed it was against the rules as they stated no streaming under the age of 13. This raised questions, as fans were not happy with the decision. After all, it wasn’t like Lucas was streaming alone but had his parents’ supervision every time he was live. So despite it being against the rules, fans were not happy with the Amazon-owned platform.

Now, a month later, the story has had further updates as another platform has banned the Brazilian boy. Just like Twitch, the platform does not allow users below the age of 13 to create accounts as it is against their rules. And once again, fans have raged, calling it an unfair decision.

Lucas streamed the game on Twitch under his parents’ supervision all the time. However, the platform seemed to be against it as they banned the 11-year-old for violating terms. Apparently, Lucas’ parents were unaware of the Twitch guideline that stated“If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use or access the Twitch services at any time or in any manner.” And so, they thought it would be okay to let the child pursue his dream. But sadly, it looked like the platform was against him, as they banned him indefinitely.

Despite the decision being lawful under its means, users felt that the platforms should have allowed Lucas to continue streaming. I mean, he had his parents behind him on every single stream. So, technically, people above the age of 18 were aware of their child’s doings.
