Several Major websites are reporting a Data leak posted online leaking source code for the company’s streaming service, an unreleased Steam competitor from Amazon Game Studios, and details of creator payouts. people are skimming it and one person claims password and adress info is there. The file says Part one.. so there maybe more. it's heavily recommended that you have 2-factor authentication on if you haven't done so already

Company has supposedly acknowledged it but has yet to formally respond.

Ever since that whistleblower came forward, Amazon has been getting hammered by hackers; this is obviously a part of that.

I had a Twitch account back when they were running Doctor Who marathons. The email account I used no longer exists. I closed the Twitch account before the email, so I'm not gonna worry about it.

There's a couple of people I occasionally watch on Twitch. And the Bob Ross Twitch channel of course.

Good to know - set up a two factor sms thing - not that I make money from this yet, but... so freaking close...
