Controversial streamer shows porn on new platform
Adin Ross, the controversial streamer who’s made headlines in the past for his inflammatory remarks, has taken to a new streaming platform, where he streamed porn live to his viewers.
Ross previously made headlines after he clashed with fellow streamer Adriana Chechik over Twitch’s hot tub streams, a type of stream where a person, usually a woman, streams in swimwear from a hot tub.
At the time, Ross said that the streams were “promoting poison” in the brain, claiming that they were feeding a pornography addiction in young viewers. Chechik hit back over the claims, saying that the streamer “clout chases after sex workers for views”.
After a long history of bans and suspensions from Twitch, Ross recently announced he would be moving his streams to a new platform called Kick. The new platform was spearheaded by Trainwreckstv, a streamer known for gambling large amounts of money on stream, and is reportedly owned by Stake, a gambling website.
Trainwreckstv started the platform after winning big on World Cup betting, winning millions of dollars by correctly predicting the outcomes of four matches in a row.
In a recent stream, Ross navigated to a pornography site, where content from the site was displayed on-screen for around ten seconds. While it was on-screen, Ross said he disagreed with the content, before closing the content and moving on with the stream.
Kick’s terms of service say that “nudity or other sexually suggestive content” is strictly prohibited on the platform. Streamers who violate this policy may be “permanently or temporarily” terminated or suspended from the service.
As noted by Dexerto, the platform says that it’s an adult-only site, despite its policies against adult content, but does not feature any kind of age verification gate. It’s also lacking any systems that would prevent minors from accessing the service.
Another streamer, Jake Lucky, called Ross out on Twitter, suggesting that he was a hypocrite after recent comments about adult content.

“Days ago Adin Ross decided to blatantly stream porn to his viewers on Kick,” Lucky said, “Going from calling porn poison and saying he wants hot tub streamers on Twitch banned to then showing your underage audience porn is absolutely mind-blowing stuff”.
At the time of writing, Ross has yet to be suspended or banned from Kick, and neither Kick nor Ross have made a statement on the stream since.
