Last night after my stream went offline, my Cozy channel was hijacked by a known hacker purporting to represent IDF Unit 8200. The hacker targeted a vulnerability in the webapp that my team uses to automatically stream the looped pre-show intro "lobby" of my stream on Cozy.

This is why the "hacked material" which was streamed did not appear live on Rumble or in the replay VOD on either Rumble or Cozy. If the material originated from my OBS streaming software like my show does, it would have appeared on both platforms during the livestream and in both VODs.

Instead, the hacked material was broadcast only on Cozy and did not appear in a replay VOD on either site, because it was broadcast from the webapp which automatically streams a playlist of videos exclusively on Cozy before I begin streaming my show.

The hacker exploited a vulnerability in the web app to gain access and create multiple playlists of pornographic videos which he streamed to my Cozy channel after my stream went offline. He included messages in the title of each playlist offering money to my development team to leak information to him.

He also included his Telegram handle in those messages and in a watermark overlayed on the pornographic material he streamed on the channel. The name of the Telegram account was recently changed to "Am Yisrael Chai" in Hebrew but was originally called something else, and is most likely not Israeli intelligence.

There is evidence that this hacker has been involved in similar attacks against other streamers and online communities over the past several years.

Since the hack, my development team has investigated the incident and found that Cozy was unaffected, no data was retrieved, and that there was no "leak" from my team. The hacker targeted a vulnerability in an application used internally to create the automatic lobby.
