An anonymous user posted today (Wednesday) on the 4chan network in which he claims that he broke into the popular streaming site Twitz, which is owned by the company Amazon, and attached a link to a downloadable torrent weighing 125 GB, which he claims contains all the site's source code, including reports Payment of creators on the platform and information about the company's customers.
The hack also contains user passwords, so it is recommended that anyone who uses Twitch change the password and use advanced security measures such as 2-step verification. Owned by the platform, such as the IGDB Games Online Database, and the Curseforge platform for learners.

Among all these files you can also find a platform developed by Amazon that was never released, and was designed to compete with Valve sets, and it got the name Vapor. Amazon was apparently interested in launching a gaming marketing platform, but this was never done. Among all these lists one could also find tables indicating the amounts that popular streamers earn, while popular streamers like Shroud, Nickmercs and DrLupo reach amounts of dictionaries of dollars a month.
The hacker noted that his goal was to "foster competition in the global streaming market, because the platform's community is considered a toxic and repulsive cesspool," noting that this is just some of the content in his hands. Twitch has not yet commented on the matter, but the company is aware of the break-in and they believe that it occurred during the last Monday - the same day that the Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram networks collapsed, but there is no connection between the two and it is a coincidence.
