Streaming platform Twitch is reportedly facing a class-action lawsuit concerning allegations that user data was utilized for Amazon’s artificial intelligence training initiatives. A significant component of the complaint highlights Twitch’s supposed failure to inform its user base, with claims that no direct emails, on-screen pop-ups, or public announcements were made regarding these practices.

Further details emerging from the situation indicate that the system in question was configured to be opt-out by default, meaning users were automatically included unless they manually chose to withdraw. A senior Twitch product executive reportedly acknowledged this design choice, suggesting that users would likely not have chosen to participate if given an active choice.
