Afreeca has an interesting controversy section on their Wiki[1] detailing various social problems.

It has a somewhat ominous last line about South Korean attitudes towards personal broadcasting platforms from here[2]. Apparently South Korea is also one of the few countries where Pornography is illegal. But I saw conflicting accounts of who supports that politically and if it's really just a barrier for non-VPN traffic.

Knowing the age demographic that Twitch can attract, and that Twitch has very popular Pools, Hot Tubs, and Beaches[3] and Just Chatting[4] sections.

I'd be curious if that perspective has an element in wanting streaming and internet service generally in the hands of a few companies, and not American ones.
