Discord changes Terms of Service

Hey there,

Some important changes are coming to Discord: we’re updating our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Community Guidelines.

These changes will take effect on March 28, 2022. We’re letting you know ahead of time so you can learn what’s changing.

Here are the main things to know:

How we use your information

We’ve updated our Privacy Policy to provide better clarity on what information we collect and how we use and share it.

How we describe our services

As Discord has evolved, it has become clear that not all communities on Discord are the same. We want users to understand the difference between posting in public and private spaces on Discord and to choose the appropriate space, features, and settings for them and their messages. New and clearer rules for prohibited content

Our Community Guidelines now officially prohibit misinformation and disinformation, malicious impersonation, and better define spam and platform manipulation.

We encourage you to read the updated documents in full. We’ve also summarized some of the most important changes in a post on the Discord Blog.

These policies will be in effect on March 28, 2022. Using Discord on or after that date means you agree to these changes.

Thanks for helping us build a place where everyone can belong.

Discord hosts Disqus. It hosts the comment sections for almost every site you might visit.

Well.. if you decide to say something that they don’t like and you find yourself kicked, then you will know that every word going through these chats has to conform to their politics.. not yours.

Awesome. That makes sense for a company or a group... but for big websites like Instapundit.. not so much.

Oh no problem, Thank you! Unlike most I actually go read the original source links. And this one is kind of important to me. I hate discord with a passion and always looking for bad press about them. lol

The app they make you install dumps exploit garbage in your computer.
