‼️🇪🇺 The EU's new Age Verification app was hacked with little to no effort.
When you set it up, the app asks you to create a PIN. But that PIN isn't actually tied to the identity data it's supposed to protect. An attacker can delete a couple of entries from a file on the phone, restart the app, pick a new PIN, and the app happily hands over the original user's verified identity credentials as if nothing happened.
It gets worse. The app's "too many attempts" lockout is just a counter in a text file. Reset it to 0 and keep guessing. The biometric check (face/fingerprint) is a simple on/off switch in the same file. Flip it to off and the app skips it entirely.
Discord appears to be working on Screenshot Detection for DMs.
While they are still missing their actual strings in the app, we have added placeholder text to better demonstrate the functionality.
“Dude did you vibe code this slop? This feature sucks!”
Been getting this more recently.
And no, I didn't “vibe” it.
Did you ever consider, for one single second…
That I might just be retarded?
And I wrote this organic slop myself?

Due to the massive wave of backlash, Discord is postponing its global age verification until the second half of 2026.
There's discussion of future features like:
- more age verification options (credit card)
- new spoiler channels
Public backlash works, good job everyone.
With everyone's recent panic about Discord's age verification (that came with a lot of misinformation), I'm glad to see an article made by someone with a lot more knowledge on Discord than almost everyone I know.
Well worth the read if you are confused about Discord's age verif
@0fficialxero@IvanaDai_ That's false! It's based on account activity or video selfie verification, and as last id verification if both of those couldn't determine whether you're an adult or not.
