Lacari, the Twitch/Kick streamer known for gacha and anime content, has very recently been banned from both Twitch and Kick after a serious “notepad” controversy involving allegedly illegal explicit material.

What actually happened

  • During a January 22, 2026 stream, Lacari briefly opened a Notepad window on his PC that showed multiple tabs/entries, one of which contained a link or filenames that appeared to point to explicit, illegal content.
  • Viewers clipped the moment and shared it on Reddit and X, where people claimed that the link(s) led to highly disturbing material, including content involving minors and animals (often described as CSAM in community discussions).
  • After the clip spread, his Twitch channel showed a suspension message for violating community guidelines/ToS, and his Kick channel was also taken down, displaying the same type of error message used for previously banned creators.

How Lacari responded

  • On stream, Lacari claimed the Notepad file “got downloaded” while he was browsing a website, suggesting he did not intentionally create or save those links himself.
  • In reactions captured and restreamed by other creators, he acknowledged that the link is “bad” but insisted he did not actually do anything and pushed back on accusations, sometimes in a defensive and half‑joking tone.
  • His explanation has been heavily doubted by other streamers and viewers, with people questioning how something like that would end up on a Notepad file by accident.

Community & streamer reactions

  • Other streamers, including names like Mizkif, openly criticized the situation, arguing that having such a link in Notepad is not something that just “happens” by mistake and implying he must have had access to illegal material.
  • Some of Lacari’s own moderators reportedly resigned, publicly saying they hoped it was a mistake or malware but that, regardless, it looks extremely bad, so they were distancing themselves.
  • On Reddit and other forums, the incident is being framed as a career‑ending moment, with calls for permanent bans and even reports to law enforcement being urged by some users.

Is Lacari “gone” now?

  • As of late January 2026, his Twitch channel is suspended and his Kick channel appears removed/banned, which effectively shuts down his main streaming presence for now.
  • There is, so far, no widely reported official legal outcome publicly available, but community discussion is treating this as one of the most serious streamer scandals in recent memory, with many assuming his streaming career may be effectively over.
  • Older meme posts like “Lacari died” on LivestreamFail are just referring to in‑game deaths or drama and are unrelated to his real‑life status; they were part of previous, much lighter community jokes before this much more serious controversy.
