Twitch streaming etiquette

[Waraxe]

Is there an "official" policy regarding teammates or leaders informing other players that they are streaming on twitch or similar platforms after they have already begun doing so?  Is there any expectation of privacy if you don't happen to want strangers not in the game watching you play? Or does teaming, or even logging in constitute a type of informed consent to display your in game activity to anyone that another player may desire? Curious as to what the generally accepted protocol is.

I think this is still relevant:

I guess that's about as comprehensive an answer as I'm likely to get. Thanks, Maelwys.

Basically common courtesy. No streaming behind a paywall, and inform all players in the team that you are going to be streaming so they can nope out of it if they wish. Same if you add new players mid stream. No berating people or being rude about them while you are streaming. If someone is dying a lot or struggling then regular banter is fine (Venge bait back in the game) but nothing rude or judgemental or offensive.

 

Nothing out of the ordinary 🙂

Ive noticed some streamers cover the chat window too, while others don’t. Usually the text is too small to read anyway, especially if it’s a YT video
