A lot of hate being directed towards Discord for introducing age verification. But when half the governments in jurisdiction you operate in start demanding it, perhaps anger should be directed towards polticans and groups who support it. #discord #privacy #ageverification

I don't know where Discord was on this, but a lot of the big companies introducing age verification helped steer governments towards this as a 'solution' because it let them avoid actually fixing any of their things and also let them harvest more data to sell. So I am quite happy to push back on companies deploying age verification because if deploying age verification costs them money then their lobbying will start pushing back.

@JamesBaker To me, it doesn't feel like an either-or. A principled corporation would shutter before making its customers unsafe. It's what SIgnal has threatened to do in such cases. Lavabit actually went through with it.
