Azubu has nothing to do with Justin.tv/Twitch.tv. This is what happens when you copy and paste legal disclaimers without find/replacing properly.

regarding the above, that they are both incorporated in delaware doesnt mean much, as it's a popular state for incorporation based on their tax law

i was merely pointing out that they are separately incorporated (assuming the first is Azubu.tv) so your first theory is unlikely. as for the second theory, i wouldnt be surprised. foreign corporations are pretty sloppy and dont want to hire a local transactional attorney for something like this when they can just steal a competitors. even if they hired twitch/justin's attorney, they would have received the same work product.

They specifically state you can do anything.

anything at all.

Up until 2 days ago, Azubu's ToS was just the bottom 4 paragraphs of their current ToS. They're grossly incompetent, and copy-pasted Twitch's ToS and find-replaced 'Twitch.tv' with 'AZUBU.TV'. Pretty much 100% sure of this. If you have an account on Azubu, you should make sure your password is something different from every other site you use, I wouldn't trust their security practices.

Since I'm sure many of you are lazy, the below embedded image tag has now changed your password on Azubu to 'AZUBU' (if you're logged in in the same browser session). You're welcome!

I would be scared of you for doing stuff like this :D

But yeah no one has ever figured out where this money comes from which made me always scared also about all the players they signed. Hopefully they won't lose their home in cca 6 months.

Btw I just checked their site, it's a terrible UI, and experience, I couldn't even open more streams on new tabs :-(

Regarding the updated op it seems that even Copy & Paste correctly is hard...or perhaps they did it a little to perfect...?

Azubu is just some money laundering business. No doubt it'll all just a massive cover-up for the true shenanigans they are doing.

But why the hell would there be anything related to twitch.tv in terms of service.....?
