As a long-time gamer, Discord as a company can absolutely go swan dive off a cliff. Choosing invasive practices regarding their userbase and privacy is completely unacceptable.

I'm also deeply saddened to see my gaming friends admit it doesn't bother them - sunken cost fallacy and the boiling water to frog scenario are all too real.

I would NEVER under any circumstances give my identifying information to a large company that has already suffered data breaches and not exactly been forthcoming to users and the public.
