Sneako’s YouTube, Twitch & Kick Ban Explained

As a long-time gamer with a penchant for following controversial figures like Sneako, I find myself both baffled and intrigued by this latest turn of events. It seems that the streaming world has become a battleground for free speech versus responsible content, with Sneako being the latest casualty in this ongoing struggle.


Recent suspensions of Sneako from platforms like YouTube, Twitch, and Kick have sparked widespread conversation in the media. These actions have brought into question the ramifications of the streamer’s contentious online persona, as his material frequently ignites debates on sensitive topics, causing apprehension about his impact on his followers.

Let’s examine the rationale for these prohibitions against Sneako, along with the varying responses from his advocates and detractors.

Sneako gets banned from YouTube, Twitch, and Kick

In the past few days, a popular streamer named Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy, more commonly recognized by his alias Sneako, has encountered temporary restrictions on several streaming services such as YouTube, Twitch, and Kick. These bans occurred within a brief span of 48 hours.

As a dedicated follower of Sneako, I can’t help but notice that the latest suspensions have added another layer to his intriguing saga of contentious events and platform limitations. This 26-year-old streamer, renowned for his thought-provoking conservative commentary and incisive social critiques, found himself in hot water back in 2022 when his YouTube account was suspended due to the spread of misinformation. However, the unexpected reversal of this decision by YouTube on October 20, 2024, offered a glimmer of hope, only for that account to be permanently banned once more just hours later.

As a devoted admirer, I’m puzzled about why Sneako was banned from YouTube. Some believe it might have been a mistake due to his lack of content during his swift return. The very next day, Twitch indefinitely suspended him for “severe hate speech,” but the actions leading to this suspension allegedly took place off-platform and involved discrimination, as hinted by a leaked message. Regrettably, Twitch hasn’t disclosed more information regarding the ban. (Paraphrased from GameRant)

During this time, Sneako’s followers showed a range of responses to the news. On October 23, 2024, Kick became the third platform to temporarily ban Sneako, an incident that occurred during a live broadcast and has severely impacted his popularity on mainstream social media. Rumors indicate that this suspension might be connected to accusations about him spreading anti-Semitic views on his Rumble channel.

Due to Sneako’s persistent ties with contentious individuals like Andrew Tate and his public endorsement of them, there’s been a growing focus on his internet actions. Numerous social media enthusiasts have advocated for a lifetime ban of him across various platforms.

Presently, it looks like Sneako will become more active on secondary platforms such as Rumble, since his access to mainstream streaming sites is currently denied. Everyone – both his supporters and detractors – are keeping a close eye on the evolving situation.
