At TwitchCon Amsterdam, streaming giant Twitch announced a number of new safety features coming soon to the platform.\n<\/p>\n
This includes the ability for streamers to customize who can “raid” them, plus the ability to share a list of banned accounts with other streamers. Both of these features are in response to the mass wave of hate raids that affected marginalised streamers last year.\n<\/p>\n
The features were introduced at the opening ceremony by Twitch CEO Emmett Shear: “We’re never going to be done with safety on Twitch, it’s a goal without end.\n<\/p>\n
“When we say we want Twitch to be the best place to be a streamer, we mean making your experience with chat safe to be an essential part of that goal. One major priority for us is raising the safety baseline – that’s the level of protection you can expect from Twitch without having to do anything at all.”\n<\/p>\n
