    Isn’t this a misleading/clickbaity title? 🤔

    The title of the article is “Twitch quickly reverses policy that “went too far” allowing nudity — Twitch confirmed its policy banning nudity was sexist.”

      The title does need updated, but I suspect it was accurate at the time of posting 23 hours ago. The article appears to have been updated at least twice, based on the URL.

          It’s not really editing titles. They publish it with various titles that get split-tested at first, whichever version of the title gets more clicks then becomes the only title used.

          Maybe it should be a requirement to preserve original headlines at the bottom of the article if they change it.

          OK, not requirement, who would ever enforce that, but it would be a nice trend, if nothing else.
