US Army blocking negative Twitch comments could violate free speech - Business Insider

Two crossed lines that form an 'X'. It indicates a way to close an interaction, or dismiss a notification.The US Army has launched a Twitch channel as a means of recruitment, and the streams have opened a dialogue between the military and civilians. That dialogue has mostly been, "How do you feel about war crimes?"

Some civil rights lawyers now say the Army's blocking of commenters in the Twitch chat may have violated the posters' free speech rights.As it looks away from conventional recruitment methods, like billboards and TV spots, the army is now streaming video games, providing plenty of potential for critics of the US military to engage in a dialogue directly.

Brands tweeting at other brands is always terrible and should never be encouraged, but some brand interactions are worse than others. Earlier this month, the US Army sentreplying to Discord, the Slack-for-gamers app popular among the Twitch crowd. The message read: "UwU." . It's supposed to read as someone making a cute face, with closed eyes and a slight smile.

"You're live for hours on end, talking to these people in the chat. You develop a community and know your individual chatters. There is an ecosystem in every Twitch channel," leftist streamer Hasan PikerIt's for the same reason that the military loans its equipment and facilities to Michael Bay movies that make the armed forces look good. A decade ago, the Army even helped develop its own shooter, America's Army, a blatant piece of interactive propaganda.

Why the fuck is the US army on Twitch.

This is a true first amendment case because it's the government that's doing it.
