Prominent British content creator Sam Pepper has been permanently banned from both the Pump.fun platform and streaming service Kick following a dangerous incident involving fireworks. The removal comes after Pepper launched a firework projectile that struck and injured a teenage girl during a live broadcast.
The controversial streamer, known for pushing boundaries in his content, was immediately suspended from both platforms following community guideline violations. Platform representatives confirmed the permanent bans resulted from endangerment of minors and violations of public safety policies.
Industry observers note this marks another significant enforcement action by digital platforms against creators who compromise viewer safety. The incident has sparked renewed discussions about content moderation standards and creator responsibility across live streaming services.
Pump.fun and Kick maintain strict policies against content featuring dangerous acts or harm to individuals. Platform administrators emphasized their commitment to maintaining safe environments for all users, particularly younger audience members. The swift removal demonstrates platforms’ increasing vigilance in enforcing community safety standards amid growing regulatory scrutiny of digital content ecosystems.
