In the case of YouTube, the last time we attempted to stream to it was over a year ago so it's possible that things have changed. I also recall there was a way to suppress copyright flags, but you had to be watching it constantly because if you didn't click the pop-up fast enough it would pull down the stream. Between that and the configuration hassles with YT streams we opted to just use Twitch until that too started causing issues.

If Twitch recognizes it as a game, then you need something like double the amount of flags to get taken down. So, either you were flag spammed by a few people(which Twitch should recognize and just ignore) or you didnt list the stream under the right tag.
