Discord cut ties with its age-verification partner after exposed code fueled federal-reporting concerns, months after a breach hit 70,000 users.
Too little, too late.
Who else is using Peter Thiels crap?
Robinhood uses Persona.
Well, I don’t believe you.
Also, you should learn what trust is and how that works.
Suuuurrrrrreeeee. They will probably just setup a shell company or whatever they do. These rats don’t just give up and go home.
Why create ties in the first place?
Not sure if I should upvote people fixing a obvious, terrible problem that they created themselves.
It’s all about testing the waters and seeing what they can get away with.
It’s how abusive relationships work.

Why isn’t this disgusting criminal in prison?
Because money
Money he stole from taxpayers
Anything Thiel touches is compromised. All he does is steal your data so he can use it too brainwash you…
did it really though?
did it really?
for some reason I’ve got the “oh you aren’t???” mashed up with that anakin with the ridiculous breasts meme
With guys like this you don’t need to find secret surveillance shit, you just need to assume it.
It’s fucking Peter Thiel. They should know he is radioactive.
They probably did, but didn’t care. They only started “caring” because it made the news
Yup, but some companies gotta learn the hard way that you can’t snake people like that and expect them to come back.

Is it just me or does this (the push for removing online anonymity) feel like part of a bigger move to push people into further insulated groups and prevent social cohesion?
People like Elon Musk and Donald Trump would love the power that China has over its citizens in online affairs.
They want to make it as normal as possible for people to identify themselves online so anyone who doesn’t stands out and it’s easier to pass laws to make privacy illegal.
Corporations like Discord are how oligarchs exert their will over the population, since they can’t always use the government directly (yet.)
I noticed articles and social media topics are going really aggressive with we need to ban social media because it’s bad for kids, and bunch of comments advocating for verification. Which of course would mean what discord is attempting to do with IDs and face scans.
Which is so bizzare seeing the backlash to discord by real people, but then non discord related topics all pro about verification.
Almost like there’s a push from powerful people to get this passed as soon as possible
I’m with you. Made a comment recently, here or elsewhere, that a huge thing to happen with social spaces over time is that trustworthy sources of information have a chance to really prove themselves as such. So when you rip apart one platform and scatter its users, you destroy that earned credibility and leave a lot of people without at least some of their reliable news sources. That’s most harmful to people looking for actual truth, since people willing to swallow comfortable lies don’t really need the providers of information to be vetted.
The conclusion to all this is that keeping social platforms from building large, long-term communities is a very effective way to keep people who seek truth from finding it.
Nah, don’t believe it. Reason: money
That’s cool, still leaving though.
I ain’t submitting my ID to anyone over the internet.
This is a place of anonymity, not for proclaiming from the rooftops who I am on here.
