“It’s over”: HasanAbi receives copyright takedown from Twitch, claims 'MasterChef' meta is over
Variety streamer HasanAbi received a copyright takedown live on stream. He immediately claimed that the new trend of reacting to TV shows and movies on Twitch is doomed.

The DMCA takedown on HasanAbi was big news. It eventually made its way to variety streamer Mizkif, who has also been watching shows like MasterChef on stream. Mizkif's initial reaction was shock.
