Twitch Streamer Loses Key, Thief Watches Avatar: The Last Airbender
Because of the massive Twitch platform, a streamer having their key stolen is a big deal. This is exactly what happened with Lily Ki, a famous offline TV streamer more commonly known as Lilypichu. The thief ended up streaming on her account, which was brought to her attention when Fedmyster's chat spammed the message to him.
The hack was relatively short-lived, lasting for about thirteen minutes from 2:51 PM to 3:04 PM. Interestingly enough, while the hacker could have done almost anything with Lilypichu's Twitch account, his actions were relatively innocent.
The hacker simply watches some Avatar: The Last Avatar, while also showing off some Civilization 6 on-screen. Since both are relatively popular, with Avatar releasing on Netflix and Civ 6 getting a new expansion pass, it seems like something someone would do during a normal stream.
Lilypichu quickly got it back, having to reset everything on her Twitch account to do so. In her words, "dude was just vibing," and while there's still a lot of mystery and very little explanation to the whole incident, it ended better than many streamers would actually expect in such a scenario.
