I'm pretty sure that the answer is no. If you send a PM to Toady, then he can confirm that.

No. I've streamed it before stating on the forums that I have done so and everybody seemed cool with it. So go ahead

Are there games where streaming is dis-allowed for some reason?

I now have the urge to stream a game of DF onto FOX News, and everyone watching will immediately turn it off for fear of being mind-controlled by the Illuminati.

Dwarf Fortress -- kind of like Minecraft, but for people who hate themselves.

The only cases that I'm aware of are for some closed access games, usually during closed alphas/betas.
