Anyone joining the broadcast on Periscope or Twitter will be able to see when someone has been muted by one of the moderators.

Your live video can go anywhere that a Tweet can go. This means that it’ll be searchable in the Twitter app、 on the Twitter website、 and it can be embedded on other websites just like any other Tweet. It will also exist and be searchable on Periscope、 which powers live videos on Twitter. If you add a location to your live video Tweet、 your video will be discoverable on the Global Map on Periscope.
In the Twitter for iOS and Android apps、 you can change the title、 thumbnail image、 and set a custom starting point after ending a broadcast. To get started、 tap on the broadcast you’d like to edit. Tap on the overflow menu、 then tap the Edit Broadcast option. Once you make your changes you’ll be prompted to save.
Keep in mind that broadcast titles can be edited up to three times. Additionally、 it will take up to 15 minutes for edits to appear in Twitter、 and up to a minute for them to appear in Periscope.
