Live-streaming on social media is causing problems where people will live stream and plan an event like this. Should live-streaming without moderator approval

Live-streaming on social media is causing problems where people will live stream and plan an event like this. Should live-streaming without moderator approval on social be banned? On Twitch, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok etc. Yes. We have seen so many issues where live streamers cause riots or commit serious crimes. It needs to be regulated. If they want to regulate crypto, they need to regulate live streams.

Who should be the “moderator”? What constitutes “live streaming”? (Is Twitter a form of live streaming?)

  Why not try electing moderators? Plenty of people in local, state, and federal "judgement" roles already are.

    The company that allows the live streams should do the moderation. Not government. If a video stream is going to move forward it needs to be approved and vetted for crime or privacy abuse.

yea, you should only be able to live scream to people within shouting distance

  Top marks for humourous response ... unless 'scream' is an unintentional typo in which case forget I mentioned it.

    My friend's sons always referred to "Netflix Screaming" in their home and we all thought it was perfectly appropriate.

Surely what's key to enabling such occurrences is using some form of communications to co-ordinate the participants? Whether or not the event is live-streamed seems, to me at least, very secondary. Happy to be corrected if there's some aspect I'm ignorant of but the money is in the goods, the participants are not doing pay-per-view on the video stream. I guess there's an argument that live streams encourages others ? Well if that's significant it's not the "live" bit that matters, it's the ability to make a video of the event available to those who are interested relatively soon after the event, good luck putting a cap on that unless your name is Xi.
