    This is exactly why giving ID scans to online sevices is a terrible idea, even ignoring the privacy aspect.

      There are proven ways that a local device could handle age checking that are both privacy focused and secure. There is obviously a big reason why less secure and less private options are chosen instead

    As ever, no negative consequences at all for Discord.

    [Sarcasm] Wow, we are so shocked.

    [Genuine] This is why we both don’t use discord and if a site asks us for this we either turn on our vpn or don’t use it.
