  on Disappointing: Twitch Brings CFAA & Trademark Claim Against Bot Operators
  (I should say, in that case, against view-bots sellers/providers. They are already fighting against the bots them-self in the technical side of thing, and of course against view-bots users, since it is obviously in breach of Twitch ToS)

  They do not - they are not going after cheat-bots, but after view-bots, basically allowing a streamer to boost up his view count

  on Both The NFL And MLB Look To Expand Streaming Offerings By Ending Local Blackouts
  Not so sure.
  
  Remember that NFL already has a season gamepass for some years, that's actually working very nicely.
  Granted, you have to be outside of the US to enjoy it, but still.

  on Xbox, PS4 Games Hitting Swearing Gamers With Technical Fouls
  When you put aside the controversy, and focus on pure gameplay: I like the idea.
  I don't play sports games much, more of a simracer (yeah, yeah, racing guys aren't athletes, I know Donovan...) - but knowing that that I can be fouled (or served a penalty, or earned a $$ fine in a career mode, etc..), yeah, I think it can open up a new whole experience. Maybe helping to feel even more immersed in the game.
  But - like in any game - if you got the option to turn it off.
