Yeah, depending on circumstance I can definitely see a case being made for the streamers having some responsibility.
I don't see how the platform should be responsible without opening up a can of worms involving censorship. Mastercard has proven we do not want fucking corps having that power.
It depends. Do you consider Twitch's moderation to be to extreme? They definitely wouldn't have let this slide. I'm pretty sure they used to stream on twitch and got banned there.
Kick is currently very lax when it comes to moderation (it's their niche, their way of existing even with Twitch's dominance), and I don't think banning channels promoting group punching a dude would be a bad thing to censor.
Idk, I don't watch videos so I'm unfamiliar with it.
I don't think so either, but experience has taught me not to give companies any more power than necessary. If it needs to be done, pass a law for it.
