Sneako Banned From Kick After Twitch Suspension for “Extreme Hateful Conduct”
2 min readControversial online figure Nicolas “Sneako” has found himself banned from yet another streaming platform, Kick, just a day after his indefinite suspension from Twitch. On October 22, 2024, Sneako’s Twitch channel was reportedly banned for “extreme hateful conduct,” according to social media reports. The ban followed accusations that the content creator had engaged in behavior promoting discrimination and denigration based on protected characteristics.
An email reportedly sent to Sneako by Twitch detailed the reasons behind the ban, with the platform citing “extreme hateful conduct” and specifying that the content creator had focused his actions on encouraging discrimination. This marked a significant moment for the 26-year-old New Yorker, whose controversial online persona has often landed him in hot water.

Just a day later, on October 23, 2024, reports emerged on social media that Sneako’s channel on Kick had also been banned. A post by X user @FearedBuck quickly gained traction, noting, “Sneako has now been banned on Kick. In the past 48 hours, he has been banned on YouTube, Twitch, and Kick.”
Those attempting to visit Sneako’s channel on Kick were met with a “404” error message, which is typically displayed when a channel has been banned on the platform. This same message appeared recently when another streamer, Ragnesh “N3on,” faced a temporary suspension on Kick.
Before the ban on Kick, Sneako had hosted a brief stream on October 22 to address his indefinite Twitch suspension. He encouraged his followers to switch over to his Kick account, stating that Twitch was merely a “fun thing on the side.” He expressed frustration over his ban and hinted at feeling tempted to make a dramatic exit from the streaming industry altogether, saying, “The urge for me just to crash out right now on the whole industry… ‘They don’t like me! F**k you!’”

As of now, Sneako’s accounts on Twitch, YouTube, Instagram, and reportedly Kick remain banned, leaving the content creator with limited avenues to continue his streaming career. Whether or not these bans will be overturned remains unclear, but for the time being, Sneako’s online presence seems to be severely restricted across major platforms.
