LenaGol0vach Banned on Twitch Again After Just Over a Week

Dota 2 streamer Sergey `LenaGol0vach` Karnaukhov has received his second ban on Twitch within eight days. This latest suspension occurred on the evening of May 12th.

The duration of this current ban has not been specified, and the exact reason for the suspension remains unknown. This incident marks LenaGol0vach`s fourth ban in total since the creation of his channel on the platform.

His previous ban from streaming on Twitch took place on May 3rd. Notably, his account was reactivated relatively quickly, just two days later.

In late April and early May, a broader trend saw more than 20 popular Russian-speaking streamers facing bans lasting one or more days. Commenting on the situation, Alexander `VooDooSh` Shalchinov suggested that the root of the problem lies in the absence of official service support for Twitch in Russia, compounded by inconsistent actions from the platform`s administration.
