My Official Public Statement about my Lawsuit Win vs Twitch


After nearly 5 years, I am grateful that a jury of my peers finally held Twitch accountable for its improper tactics against me, including my suspension. On Friday, the jury found that Twitch breached its standard partner contract, acted in bad faith, and committed fraud by making numerous misrepresentations to me. The jury also summarily denied Twitch’s claims that I misrepresented myself as an owner of CSGOShuffle. The jury also flat out rejected that I committed any type of fraud. The allegations and innuendos held against my name can now be put to rest.


The jury of 12 also addressed Twitch’s secret enforcement policies. The jury determined that because of its conduct, Twitch waived any enforcement of its Terms of Service. Also in this trial, Twitch’s secret “Strike Guide”—its undisclosed list of rules “violations”—was revealed and given the scrutiny it deserved. Twitch’s arbitrary and baseless punishment system was found to be improper. Regrettably, Twitch still does not comprehend how inappropriate its punishment system is and asked the court to place the secret “Strike Guide” under seal.


Twitch must now evaluate its Terms of Service and its entire illegal punishment system. It is about time that light be shown on Twitch’s actions so that all streamers are treated fairly. Also, we expect the judge to address my unfair competition claim in due time.


I will address questions about what I have learned and my experiences on my upcoming YouTube Live broadcast tomorrow:
