> [@Defi\_Natalie\_NotAnAlt](#): > > How did you go from “stream sniping should be stopped” to “streamers should be immune to attack”? Sort of evades how you even define ‘stream sniping’ in the first place. Just seems to me to be yet another of those deliberately vague ’ CCP should do something about this ’ topics that get expanded to a whole smorgasbord. For example…what if I decide to stream the entire rest of my history on Eve. Do I then get _eternal_ ‘immunity’ from attack ? Well…that’s not very open to exploit is it ! So just how long is reasonable ? Half an hour ? 2 hours ? 2 days ? 2 months ? Who gets to decide ? And even if any time period was decided, how would any regular player who was _not_ watching the stream even know there was a stream or how long it had been up ? And what’s to stop any abuse reported player simply saying they had no idea there was a stream ? CCP have no way of knowing. One thus ends up with the ludicrous situation where the only ‘solution’ is for people to go round Eve with a ’ don’t shoot me…I’m streaming’ label. Yeah…that’s never going to be abused is it ! In fact the ‘solutions’ end up generating more potential issues and exploits than the alleged problem in the first place. Which, of course, is typical of these vaguely defined ‘issues’ and precisely why they are latched onto by people with ulterior motives. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/is-ccp-ever-likely-to-deal-with-stream-sniping/393756)._
