Twitch Updates Terms To End Nude Streaming

Twitch.tv has updated its terms to include a section on dress in a move to stop people streaming semi or totally nude. Referencing Top Gun the newly acquired streaming service added the following to their terms of service.

Dress...appropriately
Nerds are sexy, and you're all magnificent, beautiful creatures, but let's try and keep this about the games, shall we?

Wearing no clothing or sexually suggestive clothing - including lingerie, swimsuits, pasties, and undergarments - will most likely get you reported by the community, as well as any full nude torsos*, which applies to both male and female broadcasters. You may have a great six-pack, but that's better shared on the beach during a 2-on-2 volleyball game blasting "Playing with the Boys."

* If it's unbearably hot where you are, and you happen to have your shirt off (gents) or a bikini top (ladies), then just crop the webcam to your face. If your lighting is hot, get fluorescent bulbs to reduce the heat. Xbox One Kinect doesn't zoom? Move it closer to you, or turn it off. There is always a workaround.

We sell t-shirts, and those are always acceptable. #Kappa

So, there you have it, hardly a surprise really. In fact, Polygon were told  "it's not what I would call breaking news since most of it is common sense.​"
