lamron tnsi jy_deed (@Deed_YJ) reported@myhopeworldian_ Yes and it’s horrible! I had to authenticate twice once by text and then by email. I was like wtf is happening?!? I’ve talked with other people who weren’t having to do any of that though so I thought it was an issue with my PayPal acct somehow.

Upside (@upside) reported@thatcoolguyjosh Hi there! We recently made updates to our cashout options to make them faster, more reliable, and more flexible for our users.

Calamarei 🩸💀 2.0 Debut SEPT 18 (@CalamareiVT) reported@Twitch I am actually appalled at how my situation has been handled. My account was HACKED. My 2-Factor Authentication did NOT stop someone from bypassing my login and bypassing the 2-FA again to view my financial payout information. Not only did I recieve no notice this happened, I receieved no email of my account payout information being changed from ACH Direct Deposit into my bank account (details that were now also exposed to the hacker) to Paypal with an unknown email but also no notice of the new payout information being changed. I found this out ONLY because I hadnt received my payout and went in to check for any holds or tax issues. AFTER checking through my emails from Twitch to make sure nothing was sent. I have emails ON I have 2-FA ON and all I have recieved from Twitch is notice that I should make sure these things are enabled (which that are and have been) and that I won’t be recieving my payout since it was sent out to the hacker email. THERE IS A HUGE SECURITY ISSUE AT TWITCH. If someone can by pass my 2-FA and access AND change my payout information. Exposing my banking and personal address, etc. there is an issue. And it is Twitch’s responsibility to ensure our data and financial details are protected. When bringing this up Twitch support let me know they are investigating and will get back to me. For the second time. Don’t worry, I did report the email to Paypal as well… But am I suppose to check my account details every day or every hour to make sure someone hasnt changed my information without my knowledge? How is this being prevented down the road? Will this happen to me again in a month? Will I still fail to recieve the information my information is exposed? This is not okay. And everyone on Twitch should be aware this can happen to them. Twitch’s security for your banking and personal information is a joke. And I guarantee I’m not the only one. I contacted Twitch support, sending screenshot of the information and explaining, yet I am only receiving automated emails of how to protect my information. With systems that FAILED and did not protect it this time. I cannot enable 2-FA and email notification any harder/more/better than I already have. This is not on me Twitch. This is on you.

Rob Leathern (@robleathern) reportedA shopping plugin quietly rewrites who gets paid at checkout. The retailer pays a commission it didn't owe. The creator who drove the sale gets nothing. That's the kind of thing my guest this week on Won't Fix, @bgedelman, finds and exposes. He read the code for Phia, who called it a recent bug; he collaborated with MegaLag on the Honey/PayPal plugin scandal. Ben has been doing this kind of research since 2001. We talked about a bunch of topics, including the story he thinks is being ignored: AppLovin. He decompiled ~600,000 lines of obfuscated code and has some questions for carriers and AppLovin about their consent/installation practices. AppLovin has said that every install has explicit user consent.
