"With such a concerning data breach from a platform as widespread and global as Twitch, users are naturally wanting to protect themselves and their data as soon as possible," an N.Rich spokesperson said. Google searches for "how to delete Twitch" rocketed eightfold as news of the hack spread, according to marketing analysts firm N. It did not appear that personal Twitch user data was in the dump, but the extent of the hack was still being investigated. The statement came after reports emerged that a massive dump of Twitch data had been posted on fringe anonymous message board 4Chan.Ī post at 4Chan served up 125 gigabytes of data reported to include Twitch source code, records of payouts to streamers, and a digital video game distribution service being built by Amazon Game Studios. "Our teams are working with urgency to understand the extent of this." "We can confirm a breach has taken place," Twitch said in post from its verified Twitter account. The service, where users often stream live video game play, confirmed the break-in on Twitter.
Amazon's popular live video streaming platform Twitch said Wednesday hackers had broken into its network after reports of exposed confidential company data surfaced online.
