@discord "...we will be able to confirm your age group using information we already have."
Thanks for confirming that you've always been spying on your users.
time to roast you once and for all!
This statement isn't "clarity"—it’s a confession. Discord just admitted they are using invasive behavioral tracking to profile you, all while trying to gaslight us into thinking "Cripple-Mode" is a choice.
Here is the full technical and legal takedown of @discord’s PR disaster: 🧵👇
1️⃣ The "ML Prediction" Bombshell: We are being profiled
Discord claims most won't need a scan because their "advanced machine learning model" will predict your age based on "patterns of user behavior." * The Reality: This is mass behavioral surveillance. To "predict" your age with "high confidence," they are tracking how you click, who you talk to, and how you navigate.
The Trap: If the algorithm—which is a black box—decides you "look" like a teen, you are immediately forced into the biometric funnel. You are guilty (underage) until proven innocent by a facial scan.
2️⃣ The "2025 Leak" Irony: You can't talk your way out of history
In their own FAQ, Discord mentions the September 2025 data breach where 70,000 government IDs were leaked. They say, "These vendors weren't involved."
The Reality: It doesn't matter which vendor it was. It proves that Discord’s ecosystem for handling sensitive documents is fundamentally broken.
The Logic: You’re asking us to trust "new partners" with biometric data when you couldn't even manage a customer service agent's access to static IDs? Trust is earned, and you are currently in the negatives.
3️⃣ The "On-Device" Myth: Software is the gateway
They claim facial scans "never leave your device."
The Reality: The software doing the scanning belongs to the vendor. If the code is running on your phone, it still captures the data.
The Risk: Once that biometric "on-device" infrastructure is in place, it’s one silent update away from becoming a cloud-syncing surveillance tool. We’ve seen this play out with "Client-Side Scanning" debates for years. It’s a back-door by design.
4️⃣ The GDPR Art. 7(4) Collision: This is Coercion
Discord says you only need to verify to access "age-restricted experiences" or "modify safety settings."
The Legal Reality: By locking core settings and community access behind a biometric wall, you are coercing consent. * The Violation: Under GDPR Art. 7(4) (Coupling Prohibition), consent is NOT valid if the provision of a service is made dependent on the processing of data that is not necessary for that service. Discord functioned for a decade without facial scans. It is NOT "necessary." This is a legal house of cards.
5️⃣ The "Minority" Gaslighting
They keep saying only a "minority" will be affected.
The Reality: On Discord, "age-restricted content" isn't just adult stuff. It's thousands of political, medical, and niche interest communities. By targeting this "minority," you are effectively de-anonymizing the most vulnerable and active parts of your user base.
THE VERDICT:This statement is a desperate attempt to stop the Nitro exodus before the IPO. They are trying to rebrand "behavioral profiling" and "feature-locking" as "safety."
We don't want "clarity" on how you're going to track us. We want the REMOVAL of the biometric mandate and the RESTORATION of full features for all users without surveillance.
The "pause" isn't enough. The #DiscordFail continues until the code is gone. 📉

"If abortion is about women’s rights, then what were mine?"
Abortion survivor Gianna Jessen questions how, as a woman, she had no "rights" in the womb after surviving a failed saline abortion—causing her own abortionist to sign her birth certificate.
To defend against this simply point out you will go on the date if she is paying for herself. If she agrees, you know she is full of shit and don't waste your time.
Simple.
So, per Republicans, the election when Trump was at the helm was “rife with fraud” and the outcome was illegitimate, but the one with Biden at the helm was perfectly legitimate and the outcome was correct?
Seems kinda like a them problem, no?
@PopCrave I'm pretty sure the war against women involves allowing perverts into their private spaces and permitting men to beat the sh*t out of them in women's sports. Don't forget about the open border policies that has resulted in the rape and death of many women. Where's the outrage?
@OhNoSheTwitnt The fuck she did!!!!! 😂😂😂😂 to this DAY she still says he was illegitimate, and that Russia won the election for him!
Jesus fucking Christ, do you have a partner? Do you gaslight them like this? Holy fucking shit.
@OhNoSheTwitnt Trump did not lose in 2020.
Democrats lost millions of “voters” in 2024.
Had this election been stolen again, January 6th would look like a baby’s 1st birthday party.
