    Okay, so… I just conceded that I can’t define spyware, and you’re accusing me of moving the goalposts over it but I think Ive given ground.
    I have not ever brought up the privacy policy.

    I stand by my point that security flaws are of strategic benefit to the powers that be. We can’t assume what shareholders want other than money. Yeah most of the exploits that were publicized were pretty basic and easy to avoid. These exploits are fundamentally discords fault that they were around so long, so easy to employ, etc.

    Looking into it, I found those malicious scripts on google on the first page… Discord could have issued takedown requests to google and Github. When a company is so large, laziness is malice. Someone said “no, don’t fix that.” ha that’s the scare-pasta you brought up, isn’t it? Ah well.

    You’re asking me to consider that discord is just doing what everyone else is doing and doing what its told by shareholders, who want a perfect and safe platform. You’re not asking me to change my mind, but actually make my arguments weaker. To moderate them. No thanks, I find the sharpest point to be more useful than a dull one.

    Of course! Hope you’re all good, too. Getting on with the replies I’m thinking like… Damn I use discord everyday, I use discord and occasionally talk to people who still use Twitter (X)… Ha. 🤷‍♀️
    Will I ever stop using Discord?
