#ADayOffTwitch is a one-day strike of the streaming platform by streamers, set for Wednesday. Their grievance with the company is what they see as its inaction when it comes to stopping “hate raids” and other forms of harassment.
Streamers RekItRaven, ShineyPen and Lucia Everblack came up with the idea for the protest, following a number of hate raids, which are when users employ bots to fill a channel’s chat with harassment. In early August, RekItRaven tweeted a video of a raid in action.
