Controversial internet personality Nico "Sneako" was issued a temporary ban from Kick. During a livestream earlier today (November 11, 2024), the streamer was notified that his channel on the Stake-backed platform had been taken down. He eventually revealed Kick's email, which informed him that his account had been suspended for one week due to "hate speech."Wondering if Kick had banned him because he used the N-word or said the homophobic F-slur, Sneako said:"Yo, bro! What the f**k? Oh, is it because I said n****r? I'm Black! Is it because I said fa**ot? Because I've heard the word 'fa**ot' on Kick so many times! Dude, I'm banned for a week. I just started the stream! Kick, what are you doing with your site?!"Sneako says Kick has turned into "HasanAbi 2.0" after the platform temporarily banned him because of hate speechDuring a Rumble livestream on the same day (November 11, 2024), Sneako addressed his Kick suspension, expressing his displeasure with the platform's moderation team. While referring to the website as "HasanAbi 2.0" because of their decision, the indefinitely banned YouTuber remarked:"Kick, man, we don't want to go to Demisux.com. I'm sorry! Nobody wants f**king Kick to go into xQc.com! Sorry! If you want to watch HasanAbi, just go to the purple website. Okay, who is working at Kick that thinks by making HasanAbi 2.0, they're going to be successful? Who the f**k is thinking that?! Like, anybody can see that is the dumbest business model of all time! The website already exists and it's a better version."According to Sneako, Kick was turning into Twitch due to its recent moderation policies. While asserting that he "never left" Rumble, the streamer directed a message to the Toronto-based platform's CEO, Chris Pavlovski, stating that he "messed up."He elaborated:"Like, why would they need to make Kick Twitch, when Twitch exists? Kick is Kick for a reason! Chris Pavlovski, I messed up. I messed up! I never left Rumble, either. Andrew Tate, don't say that I left Rumble. I never did. I never left Rumble! Okay? I want to branch out. I'm banned on most websites, I want to be able to go where I go. But, put the green heart in the chat because that's how much we love this website. We've never stopped loving this website. The only website with free speech!"Sneako made headlines on October 27, 2024, when he got banned from Kick after an individual dressed as Hitler appeared during his Halloween livestream.
