Twitch is warning users of a bug in one of its recently retired features that may have exposed some of their messages to other users.
"On May 5, 2018, Twitch removed a legacy feature called Messages and provided users the ability to download an archive of past messages," the game streaming company informed users via emails last week.
"Due to a bug in the code that generated the message archive files, which we have since fixed, a small percentage of messages were included in the wrong archives," Twitch added. "As a result, some users who downloaded their message bundle may have one or more of your messages in their archive."
Twitch said the issue only affected Twitch Messages, and there were no private messages sent via the Twitch Whisper systems included in these archives.
