Twitch source code got leaked btw
An anonymous hacker claims to have leaked the entirety of Twitch, including its source code and user payout information.
The user posted a 125GB torrent link to 4chan on Wednesday, stating that the leak was intended to "foster more disruption and competition in the online video streaming space" because "their community is a disgusting toxic cesspool".
The leaked Twitch data reportedly includes:
The entirety of Twitch's source code with comment history "going back to its early beginnings"
Creator payout reports from 2019
Mobile, desktop and console Twitch clients
Proprietary SDKs and internal AWS services used by Twitch
"Every other property that Twitch owns" including IGDB and CurseForge
An unreleased Steam competitor, codenamed Vapor, from Amazon Game Studios
Twitch internal 'red teaming' tools (designed to improve security by having staff pretend to be hackers)
Some Twitter users have started making their way through the 125GB of information that has leaked, with one claiming that the torrent also includes encrypted passwords, and recommending that users enable two-factor authentication to be safe.
