Xhamster Video Proxy ((top)) Today

Gaming predicted this. In "Grand Theft Auto" or "Fortnite," players control an avatar (a proxy) through a digital world (a video). But then came "streaming." Now, millions of people don't play Fortnite ; they watch Ninja play Fortnite . They are watching a video of a proxy playing a video game.
