Twitch on Friday ended the contracts of its safety council members, which consulted on trust and safety issues related to children on Twitch, nudity and more.
- Twitch on Friday will end the contracts for all members of its Safety Advisory Council, a resource made up of industry experts, streamers and moderators, who consulted on trust and safety issues.
- The council has advised Twitch on “drafting new policies and policy updates,” “developing products and features to improve safety and moderation” and “protecting the interests of marginalized groups,” per a company webpage.
- On May 6, council members were called into a meeting after receiving an email that all existing contracts would conclude on May 31, 2024, and that they would not receive payment for the second half of 2024.

Important: The article mentions that they are being replaced not that the SAC is being done away with completely.
On the other hand:
Twitch declined to comment on whether the [new council members] would be paid.
The text I replaced there is "ambassadors", that is, Twitch ambassadors, people given a title that means nothing outside of Twitch, but is the only payment these people will be getting, outside, perhaps, a sense of pride and accomplishment.
Haven't seen that meme in a while lol kudos
