It shouldn't be up to discord or any other internet entity to verify the age of its users.

Parents. Parents should be monitoring their child's Internet usage.

The internet will become ID verified to protect the kids or terrorism or what ever other reason they feel like. It won't solve the problems it is claimed to help. But if you have unauthorized opinions against government backed genocides then you are marked as a terrorist.

They should, but they’re exhausted and they can’t even be bothered to read or help with homework so this will go badly. The only ones winning are the predators.

Have you ever thought that maybe these two things are linked somehow?

And who's fault is that they're so tired?

Btw, has discord ever done anything to help a minor asking for help?

And how about known predators actually getting jailed?
