News From The Source.

Twitch saw a surge in viewers from China this past month, but now the Amazon-owned streaming service has been banned for users inside the nation’s borders.

As reported over on Abacus News, the initial disappearance came earlier this week when users started to report the app was no longer available to download on smartphones.

Twitch later confirmed this was owing to the company’s streaming service being banned in China, though no further explanation as to why was offered.

The app recently flew up the popular downloads rankings in the country – all the way to third place – thanks to its coverage of the Asian Games, with this year’s esports tournament held in Jakarta, Indonesia, and seeing Chinese entrants take home a couple of gold medals. – MCVUK
