Discord is doing so well it's hard to say whether this is actually a problem for them or not.
Maybe focusing on this security would have stopped them performing so well

It's remarkable how much data they are extracting, if the average user knew there would likely be multiple scandals or legal proceedings
People just didn't share illegal, confidential or secret things with their own name and IP address or counted on the server admin not caring.
Of course there's the threat of data leakage, buuuut it's risk I accept, when it comes to my mundane usage of discord.
My main gripe with data collection platforms is how they turn every platform into an ad board. Chief among my disappointments is windows. It's so thoroughly shit now I can't even consider myself a user. I can't really call it an OS anymore. It's something else... An advertisement platform built on top of an os.
How people communicate on Discord isn't something you want to teach any AI you intend to use publicly =)
Are they? They try to sell me Nitro at least once every month, which only gives me the impression that they're desperate to increase their revenue stream to make ends meet.
