Much like the Facebook outage earlier this week, Amazon has gone ahead and blamed the huge Twitch hack on server configuration errors. The hack led to a massive amount of data being leaked, including how much it’s streamers were paid since 2019.
The highest payout was to a collective streaming channel about D&D tabletop games, which earned over $9.6 million. A single Canadian streamer earned $8.4 million. Also leaked was the source code for every Twitch client, as well as Twitch’s internal security tools.
