Discord is going to reintroduce Global Age Verification, which restricts teen accounts.Teens and unverified users will face several limitations:- Blocked access to NSFW channels and servers- Sensitive media automatically blurred in chats and direct messages- Mandatory message requests for incoming texts- Restricted speaking access in Stage ChannelsTo lift these restrictions, unverified adults can confirm their age via one of the following options:- Credit Card checks via k-ID x Stripe- Official ID through k-ID- Selfie- Google WalletAlternative softwares are out there:Matrix (choose a different homeserver than the official one)Fluxer (they got self hosting)Stoat (they got self hosting)Teamspeak (they got self hosting)Spacebar (they got self hosting)Xmpp (you know this)https://x.com/i/status/2095594060484424012
Ok how does this affect me in India?
Only reason im listing matrix is cuz they have the largest userbase and only will only find them acceptable when you join a homeserver and usehttps://servers.joinmatrix.org/https://commet.chat/
>using discord >having friends
>>109723633They said its global. I expect the same way because its a 3rd party service that is going to do all this for Discord.
oy vey
>>109723619If rate limiting and trigger happy ban don't stop shabbo goyim from leaving Twitter, neither will Discord.
>just don't be a teen then
>>109723619They're going to keep pushing this until people stop pushing back.
>>109724186discord would rather not deal with it, its governments that are pushing them to do itsee the uk age verification laws, and many states in the us pushing for itthe brazilian government forced them to shut off video streams and are suing them for $100m
>>109724173We think (You) are an underageb&. To prove you are not, please provide>- Credit Card checks via k-ID x Stripe>- Official ID through k-ID>- Selfie>- Google WalletWhat's that, goy?
Most parents are too lazy or weak to ban their kids from the Internet, so they want companies like Discord to do their job for them.

>>109723619Weird how we went from...>never give your personal details to a strangerTo...>give your personal details and your likeness to a group of strangers you can't even seeHow are parents OK with this?
>>109724927Parents don't take care of their kids anymore, they want the government and corporations to do it for them.
>>109724927Mommy and Daddy threatened to beat my ass if I gave out my dox online, because they were horrified at the idea of me getting kidnapped or raped, that's why I will not be complying with the global identity verification program. Maybe I'll buy passu if gookmoot doesn't make me give my passport and selfie and palmfie to au10tix, idk.
>>109724927I remember how kids almanacs for the internet gave basic, sound advice like "never give out your personal information on the internet" or "don't talk to strangers" and basically never do anything that can amount to you being personally identifiable or doxxed Now every zoomer has a digital footprint scattered all over the god damn web because they can't stop going on voice chats, blog posting about their life and leaking details, posting photos of their locations and belongings, and so onIt's a fucking living, waking nightmare as all of this is now also being used by the state and their AI database

I don't care about nsfw content or DMs. How does this affect me?
>>109726793You should care about both because they will simply start restricting it more and more until you're not allowed to do anything without a penis scan
I hate social media giants and invasive governments so much it's unreal.
>>109726253>TheyTHEY didn't do this, every major social media and tech company did it by forcing everyone to identify themselves. It started with Facebook banning aliases in the early 10s, then Google+ forcing real names for youtube accounts. It was all downhill from there. They should have regulated them when they had the chance, but now an entire generation has grown up just putting their real name into any box that says "FIRST AND LAST NAME"
>gets subpoena for gta leaks>introduces ID checksI'm noticing
>>109723619Honestly you would be way better off trying to get all you rfriends to migrate to a Teamspeak serverGay FOSS niggerfaggot half-measures do not work and nobody wants to input "YOUR SECRET EMOJI KEY" consisting of fifteen turds and an eggplant just to join your server. Just use teamspeak. Problem solved.
>>109726847It's worse than that. This happened the day after 150 million IDs were leaked because of the same company they were going to use for ID checking back in March. To quote Teamspeakhttps://x.com/teamspeak/status/2095613288662839695

>>109726817They will never make the app 18+ and they cannot legally verify the identity of children, so as far as I'm concerned, it seems like I will just continue to use their services as I do now.

>>109726910>They will never make the app 18+ and they cannot legally verify the identity of childrenSo they should stop trying.>so as far as I'm concernedYou're going to cuck out and get your ID leaked and come back here in six months asking /g/ "Oh help me my retarded face and voice leaked now indians are using them to register credit lines what do I do?????" because we went through this same thing last year.
>>109726910They'll instead keep restricting it until you can't do anything on the app without your ID. 18+ is an arbitrary measure, they do not care if kids don't use their platform if they get to sell your information to advertisers.

If you want to use it as a "temporary escape" - great. but IRC will never disappear or be forced into this shit since it's a fucking INTERNET PROTOCOL. i swear to fucking god you retards on this website think discord is an internet protocol.
>>109727367>IRC will never be affected by thissame with self hosted XMPP and small chans. More people should do both as a "backup" to dicksword so that when the hammer comes down people can simply pivot.
>>109727356Magatards voted for this.
>>109727389IRC > XMPP
>>109723633poodi's regime is going to find a way to force it lol
>>109727414I use both, always have. Point being, people need to have a "backup" plan, a safe place to do group E2EE and file transfers, so that when the hammer drops everyone can flee like rats on a sinking ship.
>>109727389>same with self hosted XMPP and small chansexactly right, anon.> More people should do both as a "backup" to dicksword so that when the hammer comes down people can simply pivot.they should but many people become dependent on corporations to do shit for free and only realize way too late that they should get their ass moving and build/find alternative not under any corporate control. better late than never i guess.
Just become cisgender and you will have no need for discord.
>>109727434You should be using those protocols as your primarimes, not as "backups" for when "the hammer drops." (God, you sound like a faggot.)

>>109723633You will need to prove that you fuck teen boys to be able to access Discord from there
>>109727411Age verification has been a bi-partisan effort, it actually is Both Sides in this instance
>>109727610Any business that likes money is lobbying for this. Forcing real ID for everyone on the internet is a gold-mine.
>>109727468IRC is a protocol. it is governed by the internet standards committee. you can run an IRCd (server) on anything. you can build a IRC app to connect to IRCd using python and ai memebot in 10 seconds (20 more seconds to install the required python imports - if any). they might be able to try and force IRC server owners in the future to do this but it's impossible to enforce to due to the nature of how IRC works. not all IRC networks are public either. many private networks exist that few normies ever get access to for obvious reason. you or i could start up a network of IRCd or XMPP servers around the world, fully encrypted channels and chats. nobody can do shit about it. similar story with XMPP. these are the two only viable alternatives because they flexible recognized and widely supported protocols.

We need to use Taghoo instead!!!!This is how it feels every time i see discussion of alternatives. Im not even a fan of what Discord is and does but the fact that there's like a billion alternatives and not one of them is really a flagship so that people actually mass migrate to, which is pretty telling how we're stuck with what we got for a good while still. i do want to have the level of freedom i had in previous platforms in all aspects but since everyone and their mothers are coding """"""the true discord replacement"""" good luck convincing everyone else or hell even your group to switch to this one platform you decided on using. So the only way for things to truly change is for Discord to become unironically unusable or bankrupt and shut down.

>>109728918Armada is the best way this is set up but again, no one really uses it. It's like mastodon, it's the better twitter alternative, but nobody uses that, either.
>>109729657people are doing it wrong. It should be suggested to use as a backup and for sharing extra sensitive information. When the time comes that the primary platform eats ass the secondary platform could gain traction. Eating ass will move more and more people to the alternate/backup platform. Trying to get people to "just move" will never work.
>>109728918Another Nostr-based FOSS discord alternative is DENChat. Nostr is really a great protocol.https://denchat.top
>>109726833Barring any semi-recent real-ID policies, there's a difference between general platform policies such as the ones you described--"real" names; no aliases, requiring an e-mail and/or phone number for registration, making use of VPNs inconvenient--and choosing to upload pictures of yourself along with other PII.

The intentional division is palpable and obvious.In fact, since they were selected as the tech slaves under the current power structure from being mass imported worldwide, they are an important linchpin in maintaining the infrastructure for these draconian efforts to even be possible in the first place.

>>109723619one good thing that might come out of this is that people might realize that using everything as a service basically means just hoping that their master is good without any way of influencing anything.hosting a teamspeak or mumble server isn't hard, and you get to be your own master and maybe even the master of your friend group.but maybe i have too much hope in regular people. some people has gotten so used to being treated as cattle they don't even question when a stranger on the internet asks them to take a picture of their government issued id to be able to send messages on their website.
