Popular and controversial Twitch streamer, Natalia "Alinity" Mogollon, has been suspended from Twitch, again. The Amazon-owned streaming platform suspended the streamer after her wardrobe malfunction went viral. At first, it looked like Alinity had escaped the ban, but after fellow streamers complained, she was kicked from Twitch the following day, also known as this morning. The banning follows Alinity's self-suspension, which she announced on Twitter.

"Hey so regardless of whatever Twitch decides to do, I'm gonna give myself a 3 day suspension from the platform," said the streamer. "I think it is fair."

In a follow up tweet, Alinity addressed criticism that Twitch hadn't suspended her yet, noting it's not her fault if she doesn't get booted from the platform. Further, she corrected those saying she never gets trouble with the platform, pointing towards her multiple suspensions in the past.

Fast-forward a few hours, and Twitch made the suspension official. However, at the moment of publishing, it's unclear how long the streamer has been suspended for. What is clear though is Twitch has not banned her. In other words, Alinity and her channel will return as normal following the suspension.

For those that missed all of the drama, it began yesterday, when Alinity accidentally exposed herself while trying to shove a pillow down her shirt during a livestream. The moment was quickly captured from the stream, and then shared everywhere, which is how we got here.

For Alinity, this isn't the first time she's been involved in controversy. Not only has she been suspended from Twitch before, but videos of her "abusing" her cats have gone viral in the past. In other words, none of this is new for the streaming star, who has become quite the controversial figure in the Twitch community.

As always, feel free to leave a comment letting us know what you think. Was Twitch right to suspend Alinity or should she have been banned?
