Does Discord delete your data after verifying your age?
Probably, and we hope so.
Do the vendors they outsource the additional checks and appeals to follow the same philosophy? Not at all.

@G0LDEN_infosec@Securityblog Full time employment while I did my MSc… mainly evenings and weekends. Lot of sacrifices to get it done though, lot of planning. I suppose it depends on the ‘reward’ factor? Is it worth the extra effort
It would be good if people that say they care about children would actually do things that would reduce risk rather than creating more.
Also I want to see this research 🧐because in my tearing over the last few weeks and asking anyone I can to show me, I’m not randomly finding porn let alone violent porn. I have android and iPhone test rigs here with me, if people say where to go, I’ll test things.
You also have to not just care about children, you have to care about the safety of all people. That’s important because society doesn’t work if you just hyper focus on one group. You end up making poor decisions. This is also true in business in my experience.
The online safety act is IMHO a massive overreach that is trying to use technology in a way which simply will not work. We can all wish unicorns 🦄 existed but they don’t.
But there’s some things that I beleive could be done and would reduce harm. Safe search style http headers, App Store improvements, better education, simpler content filtering solutions, filtering on by default (which is true for some cell providers today)

ℹ️ | We are seeing lots of videos being shared online that were filmed at previous protests or during previous incidents.
There has been no disorder in London this weekend and the videos are likely being shared to mislead or to fuel tension.
This is a fake post about the real reason for the Uk riots! Watch as I weave a story about how the real cause is the lizard people…the tale will show how indeed the truth…
