> Discord doesn't comply with the OpenSSL license.
In what way? Have you reached out to Discord to make them aware? They seem fairly committed to open source from everything I've read.

They know that they are violating this license; they don't care. They are free to clean up their act at any time.

I'm not a lawyer, but my interpretation of "this software" is OpenSSL, which wouldn't apply this clause to all advertising of discord features. It would be when they run advertisements that reference discord features that rely specifically on OpenSSL features. Which, isn't going to be that often, right?

Is this a known issue that's been brought up before? I've never heard of it, and would be interested to read up on it! I'm especially curious as to their response.

As for condition 3, I am unable to locate any marketing materials which mention the usage of OpenSSL. However, if any such material exists that is in non-compliance we are very interested in ensuring that we are in compliance.
