Paige Faces Twitch Ban For Streaming Movie
WWE star Paige has been banned from Twitch after she was reportedly streaming scenes from the movie Dumb and Dumber.
According to viewers, Paige, who streams as SarayaOfficial, was hosting an Amazon Watch Party when her broadcast was cut mid-stream.
One viewer sent HeelByNature a message indicating the stream stopped during Jeff Daniels’ infamous toilet scene.
Streamer Bans, a Twitter account that tracks bans was first to make light of the situation.
For those wondering, she was likely DMCA'd by a rights holder for watching Dumb & Dumber on stream. Dumb & Dumber is not a movie eligible for Prime Watch Parties on Twitch. The blue "Watch Now" button indicates what you can stream on Twitch with no issues. pic.twitter.com/E3UrbnSoar
