Bitdefender detects multiple threats when I go to Twitch. What's going on?
Hello,
I've been using Bitdefender for a while and I've never had a problem with watching on Twitch (the website). But now, I clicked on the website and suddenly Bitdefender alerted me of multiple threats. I panicked and closed the page and BD took care of the threats. I removed the notifications so I don't know the name of the threats and I am afraid to go back lol. One of the them was a Generic Trogan. I did a full scan + custom scan with no threats detected now.
Can someone please check? Is it false positive?

Hello.
Only the anti-malware researchers at Bitdefender Labs can help you with the issue.
You should report the URL: https://www.twitch.tv/ as false positive to Bitdefender Labs here:

You could also share the VirusTotal link of the scanned URL to the anti-malware researchers:https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url/d4f11952021144cafef8472b9a985bb0722103450089734bf80325866151bd15

Did Bitdefender really block Twitch? 😅 Is it trying to protect us from the endless hours of gamers yelling at each other? 😅 If this keeps up, Bitdefender might block Netflix next, just to save us from binge-watching! 😂
