Twitch was just hacked... Literally ALL of it!

[Sir Dookface McFerretballs]

Apparently twitch.tv was just hacked and leaked, including account information, source code, PMs, passwords, everything.

And by ALL of it I mean cellphone app, game app, console app, website, everything.

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)

If you use twitch, you might want to change passwords, or stop using twitch.

Are accounts linked with twitch compromised too?

“Every other property that Twitch owns” including IGDB and CurseForge

Just assume when a site is hacked this much that it is a good time to change passwords or not use their service anymore.

Even though I havent used twitch in years, I think its about time I change my passwords. Thanks for the heads up.

"curseforge"

Thanks for rekindling my hate for twitch. I had forgotten about when they switched posting on minecraft forum to require a twitch account.

Facebook on Monday. Twitch today.

I'm betting Twitter gets hacked on Friday.

YouTube will be next week.

And then all of the internet goes down after that

China's and Russia's hackers trying to pull a online blackout prior to full-scale attack of Taiwan and Ukraine...

If this is in any way related to the Facebook/Instagram/WhatsApp incident, then something very interesting seems to be happening.

If it's as good as their game, I'm sure absolutely nothing could possibly go wrong like killing more GPUs.

Pro of this whole thing; The T.Audit will become much, much bigger.

Honestly seeing all these major user-unfriendly ethically-immoral companies starting to get hit is wonderful news.

Returning the internet to its former glory is always a good thing.
We get to keep all of the improvements, while the trash gets taken out.

Headlines are gushing about how fingerprints and authentication keys and 2FA will soon replace passwords, ignoring that hardly anyone knows how to use passwords properly in the first place.

At best, a fingerprint or keychain authenticator is nothing more than a supplement to a good password managing program like keepass2. It'll never replace passwords.
