Are you sure about that one? AFAIK Twitch's use of AudibleMagic has existed for years, and they only mute audio in vods when detected. Did that change? These on the other hand have had creator actually banned after 3 instances, which sound much more in-line with DMCA than auto-detection which Twitch runs.

Pretty sure. The article links four tweets three of which have screenshots all showing only the twitch muted VOD section.

The author of the first linked tweet even corrected themselves a day later in a reply to the original tweet.

>Thank you for all the reply’s and feedback! Im now understand that this isn’t a DMCA takedown but just your everyday classic muted vod. https://twitter.com/YamiltonJay/status/1327669258776506368

The only tweet without a screenshot in the article that called it a "copyright claim" also switched to calling it "a muted section" in a separate tweet. https://twitter.com/SL128T/status/1326949595511926784

A lot of people have been getting actual DMCA notices and strikes and bans usually for music but so far all the claims about sound effects I've seen were just the VOD muting system. Could still be happening of course but given the links the article cites I'd call the article headline misleading.

Really? DMCA has no "three srikes" that I'm aware of.

DMCA doesn't explicitly mention "3 strikes", but it does have a "Repeat Infringer" clause saying people who have multiple infractions need to be dealt with. In that sense, I don't think Twitch can legally allow an unlimited number of cases go by without banning.

It's Twitch policy
