Especially on the internet, home of more pornography than any human could ever consume in a million lifetimes. I don't understand what would compel someone to sit and watch and tip someone in a bathing suit attempting to play video games.

The one I saw wasn't even playing games. She is literally just sitting in the hot tub in a bikini. And in the corner it says "new bikini with 50 subs".

It’s a well known symptom of extreme loneliness. Very common in Japan, and growing in the west.

It's not porn, it's human interaction, acknoledgment and a form of power. The viewer can control with their money what the streamer is doing, they are recognised and build a form of relationship. This is on both sides a darker aspect of sexuality and behaviour that humans are not learning much about. That's why it's hard to understand and recognise such things.
