Just a reminder that they still intend to do this, dont let the backlash die down, keep cancelling your subscription.

Fluxer, to comply with places where it's mandatory they do a $0.00 charge to a credit card to verify your age instead. It's also easy for people who struggle with swapping to new platforms, since it is so visually similar to early discord

And they still rolled it out specifically for Brazil recently too. Everyone I know in the country got hit by it. So their whole talk about "oh, not everyone will need to verify! We have our ways to tell who doesn't need verification!" was a huge lie.

It's all well and good to be upset at Discord, especially with the way they handled this. Discord is only a symptom of the bigger problem, however. This kinda thing will come to more services unless people push back on the laws that created this panic in the first place. ๐Ÿ˜•

Governments are enforcing palantir, we're cooked as a species so just get with the program. When people warned about palantir before, they were called conspiracy theorists. Too late to cry about it now

It's concerning how effective the strategy of "do it later so people forget about it because our attention span is completely shot" is.

It is extremely effective in a climate where we have rapid fire bullshit going on. I think we've had several world events happen between now and when Discord postponed their bs.

Still keeping my nitro cancelled, at least I dont need focus for that

We laughed at people buying a twitter subscription, why should it be different for discord.

Well for one, Discord has rendered free accounts pretty much useless. I have images that are larger than their 10mb upload limit. It's been unbearable since I cancelled. Paying for a Twitter subscription doesn't get you anything useful. At least Nitro has some actual value to its users.

I have heard that Discord have dropped the "Persona" service for the verification, and the methods of how the verification are stored. They went out to be as transparent as possible of how & why.

Is this something to believe in or should I take that with salt?

And protest these age verification bills and laws. No one wants the internet (and operating systems) to become Facebook. We were educated not to share our personal information save for important services such as government services, banks and job applications. Not any more places than necessary.

The backlash does nothing about the billion-dollar lawsuit they're facing, the payment processors, and laws being levied against self-verified age appropriateness.

Keep in mind lobbying Discord will do nothing. This is all in anticipation of laws being pushed that will require stuff like this. Pressure your congresspeople. Pressuring DIscord will do nothing because it won't matter how much anyone doesn't want this once the laws are in place.

I kept a few Discord alternative tabs in my Chrome browser for quick download because Discord isn't dropping this shit. One of my friends have already jumped ship, and I know where I can follow them.

I have no Nitro to cancel, but if they go through with it, I'm just gonna delete my account. Tech companies are grossly overestimating how much we like using their services. It's not a utility. If I don't like it, I'll leave.

While I have every intention of not resubscribing to Nitro because of the age verification issue, it is still important to mention that it's less that they intend to implement it and more that they're being forced to by various governments.

Yes, I agree that Discord should NOT implement it, but unfortunately, their hands are tied on this. Am I upset that Discord is still going to? Yes. Am I mad at them about it? No, that anger's being directed at the actual responsible parties.

Follow-up reminder that theyโ€™ve caved to public pressure before. So keep applying it. In any and all cases, remind them that this shit is not okay. Weโ€™re stronger than they are.

Yea my thoughts exactly, canceled to apply pressure, and if they don't back down and instead move forward with it I'll leave altogether. They don't do anything I can't live without.

Also they already rolled this out in Brasil cuz they took advantage of related laws being put in place here.

However law that doesn't want companies to do what they are doing.

Not only this but all age verification (looking at california's new law), especially those disguised as protecting children, are there to steal even more of your information and sell it off to they highest bidder. Lobbying exists and the politicians are already bought and paid for. EVERYWHERE
