Why did Adin Ross choose Kick for his streaming platform?

Adin Ross Explores Live Broadcasts on New Platform Kick

Adin Ross recently announced his plans to experiment with live broadcasts on the beta platform Kick.

Ross faced a week-long ban on Twitch in January, and he revealed on a YouTube video that he received threats of indefinite suspension from Twitch if he continued certain behaviors on the platform, although he did not specify what those behaviors were.

During a recent Twitch stream, Ross expressed that he is not fully committing himself to Kick, but he is excited about the platform’s perceived lack of rules and the freedom it offers.

“I’m not permanently going there,” he stated. “I want to feel it out, and I want to make sure that my community embraces it too.”

Understanding Adin Ross’ Transition to Kick

It remains unclear whether Ross received any incentives to stream on Kick, as he has not disclosed any sponsorships with the platform. However, he has previously engaged in gambling content with the online casino Stake, which has connections to the new platform.

Ross specifically expressed his desire to stream on Kick to have the freedom to do whatever he pleases without facing consequences. His plans include activities such as streaming live sports and movies, even though he does not have the necessary licenses to do so.

“We can literally watch porn together,” he declared. “If I wanted to, we can do whatever the heck we want. There are no terms of service over there. You guys can say whatever you want in my chat. Nobody can get banned.”

While Kick mentions intellectual property rights and copyright works in its terms of service, requiring creators to have the necessary rights and/or consent to stream certain content, it does not seem to strictly enforce these rules.

A screenshot of Ross’ first Kick stream showed that he was livestreaming the Super Bowl on Fox last night, an activity for which he would typically need permission.
