Twitch's decision baffles me, not because of their anti or pro-erotic content, but because of their sudden change of heart.

What I think happened is someone high on Amazon's hierarchy saw what they did and gave an executive order to stop right there. It probably had something to do with advertisers or credit cards being unhappy with the way Twitch was going.

But Twitch making this decision without knowing the consequences feels weird. Like they don't know the business they are running. When they opened the gates, what exactly did they expect?
