I guess that it is an issue on Twitch's servers.

Does this happen to anyone else ?

If yes, it would be cool that you state your region.
I'm in Europe (Luxembourg).

I too get same kind of errors for twitch and other websites (tomshardware for example)
Guess it's a problem with their servers (akamai ?!?) not with our internet connection.

Hum yeah it could be Akamai.

Although I think Twitch switched from Akamai to their own content distribution system.
(That's why there is lag sometimes for European viewers)

Oh wow my bad then ! Sorry for spreading misinformation. ^^

The level of traffic on Akamai doesn't seem too high though :

--> http://www.akamai.com/html/technology/dataviz1.html

12ms relative latency
172ms absolute latency

5% above normal (probably average) traffic

18.55% of attacks more than usual.
