"Quick deletion: Identity documents submitted to our vendor partners are deleted quickly - in most cases, immediately after age confirmation."

Translation: our vendors have no idea where this data goes. If they can’t find it, it’s deleted, right?
And this is why generic EULAs should be heavily regulated, and allowed to be negotiated like any other contract. Allow me to pencil in a “you’ll allow me to uniquely watermark the scan of my ID so it can be traced back to this specific request, and agree to pay me $500M if that scan is ever included in a data breach or sold to additional third-party vendors” clause.
Oh, Discord doesn’t want to agree to that? Gee, if the company is deleting everything immediately and there’s no risk of a leak/intentional sale, what’s the harm in including it? How’s the saying go? Something about “if you have nothing to hide”?
Unironically the solution here. We need a bit of a negotiation option. Some entity, I don’t know, the EU or other larger regulatory bodies need to force that one down their throat
20 years is "quick" enough. 5 is "immediately".
Pretty much an instant on a cosmic timescale
0 seconds is perfect so bam! I won’t upload it. Call it good.
Maybe deleted by discord immediately. Not their vendor partners though since that’s what happened last time data was leaked.
"In most cases"
So, bots?
It’s been almost 2 decades but I guess I’m a teenager again ?🤷 Because I ain’t uploading shit to discord.

Sus. ~~You~~ us young'uns would have used how_do_you_do_fellow_teenager.avi
It's not even that it got leaked, it's the fact that it's data they said they didn't have. Screw em!
Yep. Just confirms once more that a company's word means absolutely nothing.
Identity documents submitted to our vendor partners are deleted quickly— in most cases, immediately after age confirmation.
Define "quickly" and why is it not always immediately after confirmation?
quickly as in never and then leaked because they secured it with the digital equivelent of a wet paper bag left outside.
One good use for AI would be to generate IDs real enough to pass these checks & stock invasive databases with slop
I support this. Fake IDs are morally good
Except AI is not capable of simple tasks let alone this.
Really? Generating real-looking faces has been doable for years now. MS paint copy/paste over an actual ID with the letters/numbers scrambled seems like child's play.
(Not that I would ever publicly condone ID fraud. That would be a terrible thing)
edit: oh. To do it en mass to fuck up their databases. Yeah that's fair. For a one-off: easily doable. At scale... Fair point
Except you've already lowered the bar. The original comment was AI generating the whole ID. Which is absolutely outside of their capabilities.
It's also an AI verifying it, so it might cancel out
Fuck them, fuck them all.
Personal ID to use a shart app? Out of your damn minds.
I guess younger generations will slowly accept this type of crap...
Not if the older generation stops them from doing so
I'm so certain you will delete the id immediately after I send it that, after carefully considering it, I deemed it a waste of time: if you are deleting my ID immediately, the time spent on sending it is better used on something more useful, like taking a dump.
The current UK government in a nutshell right now:
Or the women on the TEA app. Sure worked out for them.
No they don’t. They need it to definitively link your data between each of the sites you frequent.
That and your phone number. To be fair, the phone number thing does most of the legwork.
"last year" doesn't really do it justice They had tons of data breaches last year, the really bad one was after some places forced people to upload their IDs
Removed discord from all devices i own.
Bet nobody else will and after all this will be a huge success and the children finally will be safe
Make sure to email their support team and tell them that you left and why, they gotta have records that this shit will not be tolerated!
Age verification should be "continue the song lyrics"
That could work. They should only be songs from when I was a teenager—
Wait. They’re classic oldies now?! 😢
They got a new CEO in April 2025, look him up.
