It would seem even more nonsensical that if he was streaming to 3 platforms at once using a single application, that a hacker could just hack a single one of those in-progress OBS streams and replace the content while leaving the others alone, without rebooting the stream or affecting the rest of OBS. But I have no clue what happened to be clear, I just don't see how he was streaming to three places using a single OBS and somehow 1/3 of the output changes. Because it's not like if just his Cozy got hacked, that would somehow allow a hacker to step into an-progress pre-recorded stream and take it over, you'd have to close the existing stream coming from whatever "webapp" he is referring to and start a new one, which is not what it sounds like happened. I'm not a OBS, Cozy, or streaming expert by any means, just my opinions based on this super limited info.

the stream had ended on all 3 hosting sites and then on 1 of the hosting sites a stream started up after seconds of the stream ending. it depicted a shock style compilation of gay porn. it was the type of video used to troll and not the sort for getting off to
