Hey Hey Let's Go! 喧嘩する
大切な物を protect my balls


Some crazy poo poo coming out this morning, not clear on if it includes user passwords or not... But the entirety of Twitch has been hacked. Including the source code, entire comment history, and payment information for streamers... Probably a major deal for the Twitch users...

Pretty crazy being owned by Amazon and not being able to secure their website and keep hackers out of it...

https://9to5mac.com/2021/10/06/twitch-tv-was-hacked/

Twitch.tv got leaked. Like, the entire website; Source code with comments for the website and various console/phone versions, references to an unreleased steam competitor, payouts, encrypted passwords that kinda thing.

The user posted a 125GB torrent link to 4chan on Wednesday […]

One anonymous company source told VGC that the leaked data is legitimate, including the source code for the Amazon-owned streaming platform.

Internally, Twitch is aware of the breach, the source said, and it’s believed that the data was obtained as recently as Monday. We’ve requested comment from Twitch and will update this story when it replies.

Ironically, the leaked data is said to include internal penetration-testing tools.

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)
(oops? :lol:)

More like "Take that THOTs" because the people who hate Twitch enough to do this are incels who are bitter and angry that female streamers are very successful on that platform, which is probably why Bezos didn't bother to secure it properly because a lot of CEOs agree with the poo poo incels believe.

I prefer let's plays to streams. pretty much every streamer I know starts at like 9:00pm EST which is just about when I'm getting ready for bed. wish there were early morning 5:00am streams that I could drink my coffee too.

Seem to recall a whole bunch of alt-right types use/ed twitch to chat.

If this results in a bunch of them getting doxxed, all I can say is good.

Seems like this is only "Part 1" of what they got from the leak and also maybe doesn't include any images or anything. Just spreadsheets and code?

I think the most accurate rumor was he got permabanned for working with an unapproved charity.


Also Microsoft's twitch rip off went belly up, and twitch wanted out of their big money deal with Doctor Disrespect

He was suspended for that but he was permabanned later on and it's never been revealed why. The biggest reporter in that space claimed he knew why at the time but for God knows what reason has never said so he was probably bullshitting.

People thought it was some big deal like a criminal thing because a bunch of sponsors left too but they came back which left folks confused.

Google "twitch magnet link" and it's in like the 7th result. It's a lot of stuff so it's not exactly useful unless you want to spend a LOT of time on it. I looked at bootcamp.zip to see how they onboard new engineers out of curiosity but that's as far as I go heh.

"The biggest reporter in that space", lmao @ calling that dude a "reporter". Also, it's clear he had absolutely no clue why Disrespect was banned and was just free riding the attention for personal gain.
