• A Sydney gamer who spends eight hours a day playing Fortnite on a livestream in front of thousands of viewers allegedly broadcast himself assaulting his pregnant partner after she asked him to stop for dinner. The shocking footage — that went viral after viewers shared it calling for his arrest — has led to a worldwide debate about misogyny in gaming.
