Why did Agent 00 get banned on Twitch? Reasons explored as AMP affiliated streamer gets suspended for the first time

Popular Twitch streamer Din Muktar, better known as Agent 00, was banned on Twitch on December 5. The popular content creator's channel has been suspended and the news was first reported by the trusty StreamerBans bot on X. The StreamerBans bot also noted that this was Din's first ban.

With over 2 million followers on Twitch, Agent 00 is a popular Just Chatting streamer who recently made headlines after injuring his eye while doing karate on a sleepover stream. As the news of the ban spread on social media, speculation about the reason for the penalty has become a hot topic of conversation in the streaming community.

While it has not been officially confirmed, clips of him driving on stream without a seatbelt have gone viral after the ban. Many have claimed that Twitch banned him because he did not adhere to traffic laws while on stream.

Watch: Agent 00 got banned after not wearing seatbelts while driving his car on Twitch stream

Twitch is known not to publicly divulge information about penalties given out to streamers and amid speculation about Agent 00's ban, a clip of him driving without seatbelts has garnered a lot of attention on social media after it was shared on social media. A particular post by @FearedBuck with over 100K impressions on X claims that it was the seatbelt that was the alleged cause for the suspension, with the caption reading:

"Agent got banned on Twitch for not using his seatbelt while driving"

The community has had differing opinions on this news, with many agreeing that it was a bannable offense.

"Makes sense... Agent should have worn a seatbelt..." wrote @suayrez.

While others have called out Twitch over the ban, expressing their disbelief while acknowledging the need for seatbelts.

"Ain't no way they really banned him for that. Really? But he really should always wear his seat belt. He doesn't look like he is the best driver," claimed @bstrat515.

Agent 00 has not responded to the ban as of yet, however, this would not be the first time Twitch has taken action against people driving irresponsibly on stream. Earlier this year, Knut was banned for "distracted driving" on his stream.
