What means banned due to copyright violations on Twitch?

A ban due to copyright violations means that a users account or content has been removed or restricted by Twitch due to a violation of the platforms policies regarding copyrighted material. This can happen when a user streams or uses music or other material that they do not have the rights to, such as playing popular songs without obtaining proper licensing. The consequences of a ban can range from temporary restrictions on the users account to permanent suspension, depending on the severity of the violation.

DMCA stands for the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a US law that governs the use of copyrighted material on the internet. If a Twitch user is banned due to a DMCA violation, it means that they have used copyrighted music, video, or other media without the permission of the copyright owner, which is a violation of the terms of service of Twitch and the DMCA. The users channel may be suspended or deleted, and the user may face other consequences, such as legal action from the copyright owner.
