This #TwitchLeak is pretty wild. But my favourite part is the hacker's reasoning being because "their community is a disgusting toxic cesspool".Dude, you posted it to 4chan. That's like writing "climate change is bad" in the sky using the fumes of a coal-based power station.

Many questions are being raised about Twitch's security protocols and how will the network try to implement better protection for its streamers and viewers.
