Twitch Hacked, Passwords Reset

Twitch have posted a blog warning why you may notice you've had to reset your password upon logging in.

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

They recommend using a reputable password manager generating a random password, for your new one - though anything that isn't Applesauce1 is apparently good enough.
