KeSPA requested additional investigation for attempted manipulation, which are not accomplished, in order to eradicate any kind of match-fixing corruption.

Plus, as mentioned above, KeSPA also requested all streaming formats to ban match-fixers` stream officially.

edit: Afreeca truned it down.

불법도박 및 승부조작 관련자의 개인방송 송출 중단 요구

협회는 아프리카TV 등 개인방송을 송출하는 인터넷 플랫폼 사업자들에게 ‘불법도박 및 승부조작 관련자의 개인방송 송출을 중단’해 줄 것을 공식적으로 요청합니다. 그 동안 비공개적인 논의가 일부 있었으나, 이번 사태를 기점으로 플랫폼 사업자들에게 공식적인 공문을 발송할 것입니다.

공개적으로 간곡하게 요청합니다. 과거, 현재를 떠나서 불법도박 및 승부조작에 관계 되었던 모든 인사들의 개인방송 송출을 중단해 주십시오. 플랫폼 사업자들 역시 다양한 e스포츠 콘텐츠를 서비스하고 있습니다. 플랫폼 사업자들의 사회적 책임을 방기하지 마십시오.

협회는 향후 종목 IP권자인 게임개발사와 공조체제를 확대함으로써, 플랫폼 사업자들이 불법도박 및 승부조작 관련자들의 개인방송을 송출하는 것을 더 이상 방관하지 않겠습니다.

Seems like they want to get rid of players such as Hwasin and recently go.go who've propped up on Afreeca recently.
To be honest I think this is pretty unfair of a demand - Afreeca have no relationship with KeSPA whatsoever and it infringes on their rights as people.

Afreeca has relationship with Kesapa aka GSL. Additionally, the article says kespa will cooperate with the game companies who have the IP. (Prolly Blizzard, maybe riot and the others too.)

So they will also ban ex-BW matchfixers (i.e. Savior) ?

been a long time coming. They can do whatever they want but they shouldn't stream starcraft. This isn't their playground. They can't matchfix and ruin a whole scene and come back trying to make money off of it. Just how gullible do they think the community is?

dunno if Afreeca will take it. To your question, yes. "any people who are related" According to KeSPA.

It's totally enforceable if they get Blizzard to tell Afreeca to kill those streams.

You remember that time like six years ago, when KeSPA tried to argue that broadcast rights belonged to anyone BUT the developer of the game? Remember how that shit ended?

Na, Kespa will use all the social capital they have to make their lives miserable.

I remember Kespa tried to implore Blizzard a few years back to make certain Chinese BW organizers ban Savior since Savior was apparently competing or doing some activity in China.

sAviOr hasn't streamed since August and pls no, don't ban HwaSin. Streaming is not professional gaming.

It's playing a game at set times for money. In Hearthstone, Kripparian might not be a competitive player, but that game is his profession. When you undermine the integrity of the game in any form, that game cannot be your livelihood. Twitch, Afreeca, et al. are being given a request by Kespa. They, as private organizations, are well within their right to decline, as I understand it (if it's a mandate, they can dispute it if they want). I find nothing unreasonable going on here.

Based on conversations I had with Afreeca months ago, I do not think they will abide by this request.

And they are well within their rights to do so. This isn't the story people seem to want to make it out to be.
