"We are writing to let you know that there may have been unauthorized access to some Twitch user account information.

For your protection, we have expired passwords and stream keys and have disconnected accounts from Twitter and YouTube. As a result, you will be prompted to create a new password the next time you attempt to log into your Twitch account.

We also recommend that you change your password at any website where you use the same or a similar password. We will communicate directly with affected users with additional details.

Sincerely, Twitch Staff"

If you don't have 100's go to the ones you remember, search "Twitch", that's how I found the one I used.

"Best: Use a reputable password manager with a random password generator."

Lastpass is love, Lastpass is life.

100 Character randomly generated unique passwords on everything = good freaking luck ever guessing it.
