Discord’s updated privacy approach is “teen-by-default,” the company said in an announcement today. This means that, starting in March, all users on Discord will have their accounts partially restricted to the experience you’d get if you were under the age of 13.

I’m fine with that. I don’t need porn on Discord.

Then they will decide that links to some news stories aret appropriate for kids.No more pesky videos of ICE executing people in the street.

It also includes other functions that is not NSFW. Nothing that I personally care about but might be a deal breaker for bigger communities.

Discord breaks down the restrictions as follows:

Content Filters: Discord users will need to be age-assured as adults in order to unblur sensitive content or turn off the setting.

Age-gated Spaces: – Only users who are age-assured as adults will be able to access age-restricted channels, servers, and app commands.

Message Request Inbox: Direct messages from people a user may not know are routed to a separate inbox by default, and access to modify this setting is limited to age-assured adult users.

Friend Request Alerts: People will receive warning prompts for friend requests from users they may not know.

Stage Restrictions: Only age-assured adults may speak on stage in servers.

Are you one of those pornographic people? Large swathes of the population are considered intrinsically pornographic by the authors of these laws. Queer people are walking talking pornography simply for existing. Also most politics and any news dealing with violent events is pornographic.

Have you ever shared a story about police brutality? You are a pornographer.

  I’m fine with not talking about police brutality on discord. I used it when I was contributing to some open source projects and no one talked about gender or politics there. People with different needs should probably switch.

    you don’t need to talk about gender to be porno for them, you just need to exist as a queer

    Sorry. Open source offends corporate interests and is therefore pornographic. You’re a pornographer.
