Discord's new CEO Humam Sakhnini plans to roll out a forced AI ID verification system for all users this following March, however in October 2025, Discord confirmed a data breach originating from a third-party support provider, potentially exposing sensitive data for approximately 70,000 users. The stolen information includes government ID photos (passports/driver's licenses) used for age verification, along with user emails, names, and partial credit card data.
While some users can continue to use the platform as they usually do, the anonymous adults whom wish to be anonymous in NSFW/Age-gated servers, will be required to submit a video, or use a form of ID to scan to verify, however while Discord states:
- Facial scans never leave your device. Discord and our vendor partners never receive it.
- IDs are used to get your age only and then deleted
- Discord only receives your age — that's it. Your identity is never associated with your account.
For the majority of adult users, we will be able to confirm your age group using information we already have. We use age prediction to determine, with high confidence, when a user is an adult. This allows many adults to access age-appropriate features without completing an explicit age check. (Yet we'll see in March)
Which is confusing on last October's data breach, nevertheless new filters are being planned to set in place, that of which are:
- Mature Sexual Media Filter: Helps identify visual media that may contain sexually explicit or suggestive material involving adults
- Graphic Media Filter: Helps identify image-based media that may contain violent or potentially disturbing visual material
Several rumors circulating on the platform that the platform will scan all files and monitor your activity, even without your permission - however no article or online post mentions a thing about it

Well the Internet had a good run, y'all. I'm going to see whats outside since it's more anonymous.

>>1488044 Yeah fucking right. Whatever fourth party AI service they're using is going to get all that data uncensored and without any terms or conditions for use.
3rd person
>>1488062 Yeah but only bots will work there. Hopefully they don't start stealing money to give to AI generated Onlyfans models.

>>1488065 The classic trick they were doing decades ago is for their "partners" who are generally bound by the agreement with the first company to give it to *their* partners, who are not bound at all. These third degree companies can then sell it back to the first and second companies. Discord doesn't have the exact picture of you and your ID because they kept it, they have it because they bought it from a company that got it from a company that got it from Discord. You weren't involved in that transaction at all and have no say in what they do with it.

Much discord over discord. duck duck go go discord alternatives. I buy my illegal drugs like 7-oh using discord to communicate with my dealer. They've already chose a different way to communicate.

What is the issue with this? Don't you want ICE agents showing their identity too? Agent Discord and Pornhub Democrat allies? Why don't you trust them then?
Anonymous
>>1488180 ICE agents are government employees in public facing roles. Also supposedly law enforcement (but only when it's convenient for them, it seems). Public law enforcement has no business hiding their identities.

>>1488184 sure then lets systematically charge everyone involved in the doxing of law enforcement and take every comment about threatening law enforcement seriously online. that's objectively a crime but isn't enforced right now, calling for murder calling for violence against law enforcement.
they should all be executed then, then you can talk about muh transparency.
there's probably like 10k of psychos on rddt /news they can start with

>>1488186 You can't dox law enforcement, they're supposed to be known to the public. Don't want to be known, don't take a public facing government law enforcement job.
Anonymous
>>1488188 are you doxing them now when it isn't known to the public? yes you are.
you also can't encourage violence towards anyone especially federal law enforcement but ur doing that right now.
You want to know their information and what for? oh right to spread it and hope some lunatic takes action, that makes you an accomplice in a crime. you want to know their info? then execute everyone whose called for violence right now. have them dragged off to a cell and disappeared north korean style.

>>1488190 Retard these people have murdered people and it took almost two weeks to identify them. Law enforcement needs to have accountability.

>>1488191 when there's an active lynching mob out there trying to protect illegals all the while effectively taking over the city, no.
>whose names are supposed to be known also that's bull shit, but i guess a retard like you wants to know their info so you can actively impersonate and run a false flag operation why am i not surprised
>>1488194 justified homicide they were violent threats to society everyone outside the leftist terrorism hemisphere agrees.

>>1488199 They're very easy to impersonate, actually. Temu vests and a face mask is all you need, as seen by the numerous groups who already impersonate them to kidnap people and only sometimes get caught.
Anonymous
>>1488200 no you want to take their names to impersonate and frame them typical leftist terrorist tactics.
Good I hope they kidnap you too
Anonymous
>>1488202 >you need the names of faceless thugs to impersonate them People already impersonate them, because they don't identify themselves. Failing to identify and not carrying a badge is their MO. Perfect replicas of their gear can be had for cheap and many people already have it because they were larping as "badasses". ICE is the easiest organization to impersonate by a wide margin. All you have to do is be an asshole and not wear a badge.

>>1488197 Dodging your own strawman. No one is arguing for exposing undercover agents (even though ironically undercover agents don't operate under their real names for exactly this reason lmao), but ICE aren't doing undercover stings, are they?

I'm learning to set up Matrix right now, biggest problem is that all of the information is out of date. You need a postgres database on install (the SQLIte that comes with it just isn't fast enough, it will take days to update even a single media image) and you need a TURN server for VOIP (very, very few people know what this is, and this was a recent addition as well)
The problem with discord is it's the next easiest and best thing after Steam Chat. So people will give pictures of their balls and face to keep using it.
>>1488180 you think Law Enforcement or any of the Pigs in power have anything to worry about? Epstein was using plaintext email that was likely read by a dozen glownigger agencies, and nothing happened to him.
Laws aren't there to protect you, they're there to protect people like them from people like you. They'll continue having snapchats in public or on private facebook groups about raping children while you get sent to jail if you say Israel is an illegitimate state on Discord.

>>1488205 >No one is arguing for exposing undercover agents Though they should, if Discord has a two-tier system where law enforcements gets to use "The good discord" that doesn't link your face to your text and voice logs, then that's literally an abuse of power.

>>1488204 good then go mob one and see if they're real when they are you'll be the third on their scoreboard.

>Thread successfully de-railed from talking about the company with multiple data breaches demanding everyone's biometric IDs I like how Amerisharts are now arguing tooth and nail that Law Enforcement should have special privileges to Anonymity that nobody else is allowed to have, despite the fact in a sane world it should be the other way around and they should be kept under the most strict surveillance. Especially with the American Cop track record of hiring 80 IQ fuckheads who draw their gun upon hearing threatening sounding acorns hitting their cars.

>>1488205 You're the one who said that law enforcement is
>supposed to be known to the public. Which isn't true even if we took undercovers out of the equation. Fun fact: local police don't have to give out their name and badge in every state.
