Unpublished VODs Being Accessible in Incognito Mode
Dear Twitch Support,
I've discovered a potential privacy issue where unpublished VODs are accessible through Incognito mode (or when logged out) by directly accessing the URL: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/{id}.
I encountered a few instances where VODs, presumably unpublished by their creators (as indicated by deactivated clips and their absence in the "Past Broadcasts" section), were still accessible. It's important to note that deleted VODs do not present this issue; attempting to access a deleted VOD redirects to the "time machine" page, as expected.
This situation suggests that unpublished VODs are not being fully restricted from public access under certain conditions. For privacy and content control reasons, it would be ideal for unpublished VODs to be inaccessible in all scenarios, including when users are not logged in or are using Incognito mode.
