    Burger King just made a major move in the Twitch space - a potentially ILLEGAL move! Loyal Theorists, were you one of the lucky viewers to see Burger King hop onto your favorite Twitch stream and use the text to speech message to advertise their food? Well, they DID and many of those Twitch streamers are NOT happy! You see, Burger King used them as cheap advertising rather than actually sponsoring them, which potentially cheats them out of money. So, was this sneaky tactic a genius move by Burger King to sell their Whopper or did they just break the law?

    BK really likes getying involved in this kind of things. There was also the incident where the person on the TV commercial would say "Alexa, what is burger King whopper?" to which the alexas at home that are in range of the TV would answer by reading the wiki entry for the whopper. Internet trolls retaliated by editing the wiki entry and putting cyanide to the ingredient list which forced BK to shelf that commercial.

      Burger king russia(aka russian sub-division) intentionally released an article about how their app **DIRECTLY STREAMS A VIDEO THAT WILL INCLUDE YOUR CARD DETAILS** on habrhabr(one of the biggest pure-tech site, something like old school "blog site", but for software developer professionals, it even had an invite system for a long while) and pikabu(just entertaiment site, functionally reddit, but smaller and worse and in russian). Got called out on it eventually, but nothing happened since the whole ordeal was a hoax on their part, just left a shitty aftertaste.

      Even then that’s gonna end up as 2.5$ since twitch takes half donations from each streamer, and even then I’m not sure if taxes are still put onto the remaining 2.5$ which could make it more like 2$ for what could be a thousand dollar+ sponsorship.

    I stopped eating burger king when they started to push for "healthy alternatives." Their whoppers have no taste anymore and a lot of their ads don't help them. The "not everyone is happy meal" was pretty much the last straw. Side note, I prefer how Wendy's did the social media thing. They basically took over twitter for a time by having a sassy red head anime mascot telling people off. People were willingly sharing their content because it was funny.

    I don't care about streaming or advertising. What pisses me off about this situation is A) the breach of decorum, and B) the hijacking. That's precisely what BK did here. They hijacked the stream for 30 seconds. The streamer couldn't stop the TTS message once it started, so there was no control; that's hijacking. They may have paid the individual streamers a minimum donation of a few dollars each time, but it was unwarranted and was done WITH THE STREAMER'S FACE ON CAMERA WHILE THE MESSAGE WAS READ. That ALONE makes it seem like it was sponsored, makes the viewers associate the message more with them than a random midroll ad. I don't care what the law says in the moment; even if they found a loophole, they're in the wrong. They violated the spirit of the law and violated common etiquette, and they deserve punishment.

    • @AmaraJordanMusic
      @AmaraJordanMusic 3 года назад +2

      MessInMines I don’t think so. They often buy the info from info farms that buy the info from the websites you use. The websites DO tell you they will share info with third party companies, but it’s in the terms and conditions.
      So, for instance, your dog food company may sell your email address to an info farm, which sells it to Burger King, and then when you get a Burger King email, it’s legal. If you ask for them to not spam you, and they still do, I believe that’s not legal. But you have to deal with it in the first place. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @MessInMines
      @MessInMines 3 года назад +2

      ​@@AmaraJordanMusic Yeah but in this case Burger King didn't have the consent from anybody. The viewers, the streamers, or even Twitch didn't give their permission to BK.
      The viewers agree to see advertisment when they use Twitch.
      The streamers agree to show their viewers ads from twitch when they chose to display them.
      Twitch allows companies to advertise on their platform when they make a deal with said company.
      Here Burger King had the consent from none of those.
      The problem here is that the only one that can actually go after Burger King is Twitch.
      Twitch can go to court over this for anauthorized advertisement and win easily, but i'm not sure twitch is willing to.
      Depending on the people in charge it's even possible that Burger King will still be able to advertise on Twitch after this.
      Money from shitty companies is better than no money in the corporate world.

      To be honest, those of us like me who are turned off by this kind of BS are probably the ones who were already not going to BK.
      I won't be giving them business for a while, but the last time I chose to go to BK, they were selling glasses for the 2009 Star Trek movie and I've only been through any businesses drivethrough about 10 times this year. They aren't losing money pissing me off. Meanwhile, one person seeing a stream, thinking it's funny, and going out and buying a Whopper almost entirely pays for the revenue they gave a streamer. Granted, that doesn't count the cost of whatever human employee they had doing it, the marketing team that came up with the idea, and the profit margin they threw on top before sending BK the bill, but it only takes a few, and it's likely they targeted high profile streamers to get more distance from their efforts.
      Sadly, being a jerk pays in marketing.

      Back in high school I got my teacher to deny that video games could teach math. I brought in my wii to play smash brothers and while we rotated playing in class we did phsyics claculations. My teacher was laughing so hard that after every final we would get a videogame day xD
      Edit: His other classes were so confused. Our principal even joined us one day. She was like “so... what deal we make for this to happen?”

    Thinking of the audience, the best response I can think of would be the streamer insult the brand (an anti-endorsement) like “Burger King? I wouldn’t eat that slop if I were starving. That garbage dulls your reaction times and makes you a bad gamer.”
