course not. he's an idiot that stumbled into a profitable gig, and then he let it slip through his kiddie-diddlin' little fingers.
Is that is true how is he not charged?
What's the story?
2017 twitch had a “whispers” product. Sounds like direct messages twitch.
He was sexting a minor. A twitch employee confirmed he was sexting her even after he learned her age. He tried to setup a meetup at twitchcon.
He might be legally pseudo protected by twitch having minimum age requirements. I’m not a lawyer so I don’t know why the company just banned him instead of referring it to the cops. This all could have been secret if he had just kept his mouth shut and not bad mouthed the company with all the deets.
Source: Wikipedia and a podcast (don’t remember which one)
Unless it was a few very specific US states, this isn't really relevant. The minimum age to sign up for an account on Twitch is 13.
