Amazon’s Twitch terminates members of safety advisory council, CNBC reports

(Reuters) – Amazon.com’s streaming unit Twitch will end the contracts for all members of its safety advisory council on Friday, CNBC reported, citing documents and sources familiar with the situation.

Unveiled in 2020, the council consisted of experienced users, online safety experts and anti-bullying advocates to help improve safety on the site.

The company did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

In January, Bloomberg News had reported that Twitch was set to cut about 35% of its staff.
