Really? You don't think an element of mass reporting is the following?

Someone hates streamer X. This person has lots of friends. He joins a community of people who also hate streamer X and they agree to mass report him.

Now this person is trying to garner support and excerbate the issue, he contacts his friends and tells them to report this streamer because of all of these "noble" sounding reasons. This persons friends like him, and have no problem believing him and helping to pile on because they perceive they are creating justice.

Person has now managed to amplify the reporting effect and create a bigger impact. Mission accomplished. These friends are now innocent for the most part, they believed their friend and wanted to help him, and would now be collateral damage.

Futher more, if the reports of the activity are indeed against TOS, the company will enforce its rules. Why would they not enforce their own policies? Regardless of the motive of the people doing the reporting?

If people report a crime not because they want to see justice but because they want to screw the perpetrator over the justice system still needs to act. Regardless of the reporters intentions.
