Twitch uses Twitch.tv/Ninja for recommend channels for other Fortnite streamers. Shows porn as recommend

Fake news. The guy is just trying to fix her socks for her and it's a Livestream from a nudist* colony.

Wtf, that first thumbnail is Kimmy Granger and I'm pretty sure she has nothing to do with video game live streaming
All this says to me is that the most viewed channel that tagged itself as "playing Fortnite" began to stream porn until being banned.
Not sure what this has to do with Twitch or Ninja. Directing people looking for Ninjas channel to other Fortnite players is business as usual.

With which part?
Protecting "his brand" with an unneeded apology that casts blame at Twitch? It's just acting in his self interests to further his career. Twitch can promote whoever they want on whatever page they want on their platform, to be honest.
As to who to blame, it's people abusing the platform to stream inappropriate content. The person streaming must have had related content in the past, was flagged by an algorithm because they were getting a ton of views in short time, and simply gamed the system to get pushed to the front of the recommendations. The same thing happened with Artifact awhile back. The only option is to manually approve and continuously monitor each and every stream.
Twitch didn't put porn on his page on purpose, ruining their reputation, as a petty spiteful insult. Ninja's statement is about as interesting and thoughtful as any piece of pandering corporate PR. This entire thing is nothing for everyone involved.
Correct
be careful OP
edit: ban lifted, but the linked post was originally a 2 week ban for being "sexist trolling" and promoting "misinformation"

Yeah good point. Didnt thought of that. I removed it just to be sure.
The porn bit doesn't bother me, but using his link as a way to advertise other streamers (to keep viewers on Twitch) is rather shitty of them.
They don't do it to any other steamer though, not exactly "business as usual" as you claim.
Which is what Ninja explains in his video. They don't do it for anyone else to other streamers who left.
twitch should be more professional in all aspects. They come across as a company run like a drama-filled IRC channel

No, it's not. That's literally explained in the video in the OP.
people will just take this as more proof that you know who he is, fyi
You can thank the "I haven't followed gamergate but..." crowd
Okay, not literally business as usual, but reasonable given the circumstances (IMO i guess)
I don't think that is necessarily true. There is a lot of trade marking and copyright law about this stuff. I'm largely just saying it's not so simple. And so what if he is acting out of self interest? Most people do and don't get criticized for it.
Yep, In their jealous rage, all they're doing is making Mixer more appealing.
Wait, so Ninja is apologizing for a thing someone else did?
I get why Twitch is on damage control after losing a huge name, but between this and that earlier event where they sent an e-mail so openly hostile that a bunch of people (myself included) thought that it was more likely to be a doctored screenshot, I'm amazed at how poorly they seem to run themselves.

Twitch just keeps the ball of shit they have rolling down the hill, they really got hurt when Ninja left lol
