    Hi, I know that this is a very late response, but we’re hoping to find time to address this issue later this year. There are a few steps we’ll have to take to solve this problem in a way that will work for all streamers, but we understand the severity of the issue.

    this needs to be dealt with now, not next year forget about updating the site adding new **** extra the sight works.............. fix a problem that's ongoing and a threat to your user's data. as a caster, we have no control and every time we go live and have them bots sitting in are channels we are not only putting areselfs at risk of having our data leached but are communities data leached aswell. from the comment you have posted it seems like you have no priority to deal with this issue. you say "we understand the severity of the issue." but it doesn't seem like you do. it's just another thing for the back burner. and its not like this is a new issue its been going on for a while now. twitch is meant to be a safe site but there's a big threat of your data being collected by a bot and leached. blocking the bots from chatting don't do anything..... to protect anyone
