This is a cognitohazard
I mean… A lot of my vocabulary is anti-human, too. Its believable enough to make me wonder.
I thought this was a fart joke until I read the text inside that green cloud.
Talked about linux in discord the other day and all the linux people were fucking annoying as shit about it
She’s absolutely stunning. Beautiful cat.
That sounds like a fun watch, good idea
Egypt was very fertile and had food surpluses, many societies that build cool shit had food surpluses.
This is exciting it just probably hasnt come to fruition this quarter. And businesses that are succeeding with AI dont really need to brag about it in the news. (Amazon?)
Dude this is only like 10 years too late. Youtubers deserve comorehensive moderation and curstion tools. Youtube comments should be at the forefront of video discussion.
… In truth, I wasn’t ready.
Okay, so…
I just conceded that I can’t define spyware, and you’re accusing me of moving the goalposts over it but I think Ive given ground.
I have not ever brought up the privacy policy.
I stand by my point that security flaws are of strategic benefit to the powers that be. We can’t assume what shareholders want other than money. Yeah most of the exploits that were publicized were pretty basic and easy to avoid. These exploits are fundamentally discords fault that they were around so long, so easy to employ, etc.
Looking into it, I found those malicious scripts on google on the first page… Discord could have issued takedown requests to google and Github. When a company is so large, laziness is malice. Someone said “no, don’t fix that.” ha that’s the scare-pasta you brought up, isn’t it? Ah well.
You’re asking me to consider that discord is just doing what everyone else is doing and doing what its told by shareholders, who want a perfect and safe platform. You’re not asking me to change my mind, but actually make my arguments weaker. To moderate them. No thanks, I find the sharpest point to be more useful than a dull one.
Of course! Hope you’re all good, too. Getting on with the replies I’m thinking like… Damn I use discord everyday, I use discord and occasionally talk to people who still use Twitter (X)… Ha. 🤷♀️
Will I ever stop using Discord?
I think what you’ve said is brilliantly put.
Idk what the bar is for spyware but Ill be specific about my belief: discord is basically the most red flags of any social media and also has the facade of a very private and personal space.
On reddit you can simply use a tampermonkey script to remove your data. On discord, there is no option to delete all your messages. To the extent that there’s a discussion worth having about whether Discord is following the GDPR.
Not tackling security issues means discord is okay with third parties exploiting the software to gain info about certain users - which could include hacker groups or government actors targeting single targets.
I dont think discord can give individual messages over, legally, although they are stored unencrypted on Discord’s server.
Alright, replies to my initial comment got me motivated to look for the receipts:

I heard this argument so long ago that basically Discord doesnt sell data but instead shares it with shareholders, which includes many ad companies, including tencent. They probably give this data to their linked partners like twitch and Microsoft. Discord still isnt profitable and they are a public company, they are expected to exhaust every opportunity to give value to those shareholders.

If you connect to Discord via VPN they will ask for your phone number haha
The more Im looking into it you are so much more right than me. Its about utility, not aesthetics.
Oh Well if its safe th3n its worth a shot righ…
