As an avid Twitch streamer, what do I need to do to protect myself?

  Change your password obviously, maybe even reset your 2FA if those codes are in the leak. And if you want to be perfectly safe, don't visit twitch. Because if that source code has any vulnerabilities they might be exploited against twitch visitors as we speak.

  If the literal source code is leaked, you should: Change your password (and if you used this password at any other site, change it there too). You might want to put a hold on the credit card you stored info of with Twitch (for any followers). If the source code is compromised, other attacks are possible. Depending on how the code works, it may be possible for attackers to successfully charge your followers while you stream. It would be very easy to phish your followers with a website that looks like twitch but is in fact twtich.com for example. And then charge them when they think they are donating to you. It's honestly probably going to hit you hard if you have to move to an alternative service. But you have to weight that against the very real threat of this leak being used to steal from your followers or you.

  Also change any account with a password that's the same as your twitch account. Once they know your twitch password they will try it on your related accounts.
