Goff quotes MLS:

“MLS teams will communicate to their supporter groups MLS’s existing policy - that streamers are not to be used to impact on-field competition or thrown toward a player, referee or stadium staff member. While the spontaneous use of streamers and confetti as an expression of fan enthusiasm will not be prohibited, the continued practice will be kept under review. Should issues continue regarding the use of streamers, MLS will have no option but to prohibit streamers.”

(emphasis mine)

To me, this is a non-change. MLS is just re-iterating its pre-existing policy. However, I think I’m going to limit my personal streamer throwing to the start of each half and after goals (due to recent results, this is rarely more than 3 times a game). I think being louder will impact atmosphere more than throwing streamers, and perhaps our streamer throwing is distracting us from this goal? Its a personal decision ultimately, and I could change my mind back.

How pathetic is that? I need to up the level of intellectual discourse on this site.
