Double Counter essentially acts as a bouncer bot for Discord servers
If you give a Discord Bot sensitive data, I’m sorry but you’re clearly the issue. Bots are software, you (hopefully) wouldn’t download a random piece of software from an untrusted souce and give it access to your sensitive data and you should apply the same level of caution when it comes to Discord Bots too.

You are victim blaming. Should they have been more cautions with handing over their data, yes. But the fact that they have to, is representative of the bad state of society. It is the fault of the company, people or systems that where trusted by the communities to properly protect it against evil actors. If they cannot protect that data, they shouldn’t have gathered it in the first place. And for that they should get punished properly and should recompense all victims. They should no longer be in business.
Civilization is built on trust, and if that trust erodes, civilization does too.

Correct, and the biggest erosion of trust is coming. It’ll definitely be something.
