Twich is blocked in China
Confusion of users and cause
Twitch live streaming distribution platform of the game that the number of users exploded in China last month. Nevertheless... Now it is already blocked by Achilla.
According to Hong Kong 's Tech News Site abacus that said, from the beginning of this week, Twitch's site cannot be accessed from all over China, and the app has not appeared on Apple 's App Store anymore. It also reports that this is not a bug.
In the article of TheVerge, Twitch users posted this matter to Weibo from Monday saying that this is going to be shared in a limited area or throughout China.
Just recently, Twitch has just rolled out as the third most famous free app on the Chinese App Store. That seems to be the reason that a lot of people started to use Asian e-sports to see. This is because the government's television station did not broadcast so that the flow has been made.
I think that the block of this time seems to be caused by such people's departure from television. In Chinese television programs, occasionally propaganda-like content also flows, so it will not be interesting to the government that the public will not see it.
By the way, Is there a resurgence of Twitch in China? What e-sports broadcast at the state-owned broadcasting station?
