To everyone who wants to raise awareness and get people to take action against censorship and bills that take away our rights, I want to say this very emphatically:

Include. Resources.

Because yelling is infinitely more useful when you're also showing people the next steps they can take

Discord advises UK users that they "may be part of an experiment" where instead of their age verification data never leaving their phone, it will now actually leave their phone

If you live in the US, call your fucking representatives and tell them that repealing Section 230 is a horrible idea. If Section 230 is gone, you can kiss Bluesky goodbye.
Reminder that they're still trying to repeal section 230 (thereby making platform holders like bsky legally responsible for content posted by their users etc etc)

There is still a need for you to blow up your rep's phones on this if you enjoy being able to do things like "post" or "have an porn"

In Minnesota, we are all too familiar with false spring. You think maybe winter’s finally over...until the cold snaps back, sometimes even harder.

That’s what this moment feels like. You may hear that ICE is “leaving", but they’re shifting, spreading out.

Don’t mistake a brief thaw for safety.

One of my absolute favorite techniques in animation gets a thoroughly obsessive breakdown here:
This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous.

Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

Discord lied.

they’re now sending scanned IDs to persona, a third party company.

“facial scans will never leave your device” -discord lmao.

If you want to know what we are doing here, contact me.

I made this quote post so anyone can interact. Let me know here and we can move the convo to more secure channels.

Please learn, prepare, and get ready.
The administration is relocating ICE agents to other parts of the country to see if they can achieve better results with the same tactics there.

If you're outside the Twin Cities, learn and replicate their model for resistance.

If you're in the Twin Cities, keep your networks intact and carry on.🖤

Like I'm begging you guys to understand this is not a discord thing this is a following law in advance thing.

Cancelling your nitro and boycotting isn't going to change this we need a stronger way of organising because this is going to happen on every social media if you don't contact lawmakers

The answer to this should be 'don't care' and to keep hammering them until they cease this shit entirely.
Discord has posted updated clarification:

-Discord is not requiring everyone to complete a face scan or upload an ID to use Discord
-The vast majority of people can continue using Discord exactly as they do today, without ever being asked to confirm their age

Discord posted an update abt their age verification - I feel the need to inform people that all of these things were already true last year when they had that data breach that exposed people's IDs. Bad actors got into a customer support account that had access to tickets with people's IDs in them.

While this absolutely sucks, we are going to see a lot more places implementing universal global age verification over this next year, because the number of states and countries legally requiring it has gotten to the point no one can keep up anymore.

“We can pre-identify adults based on what we already know” is not the comforting statement they think it is.
Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

Yes, cancel your nitro but also please understand that the ID laws in states are largely giving corporations a lot of "excuses" to do this stuff and you gotta take it up with your state reps. Call them and tell them ID laws are awful and hurt people.

i'd also like to directly confront the idea that, well, for "some reason", things that used to be forums, wikis, websites ended up on discord.

it's not a mystery. running a website, wiki, whatever, is hard. maintaining a community is hard. getting people to engage with things is hard.

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?
