How to cancel your Discord Nitro:
Go to discord.com/app
or Discord app on PC
1-3. Click your user gear, subscriptions. Click the not obvious cancel button ( I already canceled so I simulated it)

And hope that enough people do it to send a message.

I know Remedy sucks at making money but for fucks sake do literally anything other than hire an EA executive.

I fully expect to see layoffs, Sam Lake leaving the company, and a slew of live service bullshit being pushed

Hell, genAI is likely to be forced into their games as well

I hate it here…

NO GODDAMN IT NO 😭

EA Executive is THE biggest red flag and Remedy is the one big dev that I actually give a shit about. Their creativity is unrivaled and you can feel the love they pour into their games

Now it’s going to be about making as much money as possible…

Remedy's new CEO is a former sports betting guy and EA executive who aims to 'scale Remedy in a way that builds lasting value'
Is it just me or does that not sound great?

This is the thing people really need to be aware of. At some point they’re going to decide that being LGBTQ+ is a problem and try to erase us from the internet.

Control the flow of media at every turn and you can control the minds of the population. It’s not conspiracy. It’s proven tactics.

I could remove every speck of risque imagery/topics from my community and there's still a 50% chance we'd get flagged just because we're openly queer.

It's not actually about the kids.

Discord isn't walking back anything yet, but this shows they are feeling the pressure and you should keep bullying and contacting them until they relent.
legendofnerd.bsky.social Brian M @legendofnerd.bsky.social · 2d
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)
Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults. And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

despite what this post may say: this is not a walkback. this is a reiteration. we already knew this information. do not fall for unwise propaganda. keep the pressure on, financially or verbally. barrage them.

I will not upload my ID or scan my face to access any goddamn website on this fucking planet.

If you see me disappear from Discord suddenly it's because I couldn't trick the system to let me in.

I'm also canceling my Nitro. Go fuck yourselves 🖕

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?
