I ain't scanning shit.
Teamspeak, Steam groups/chat, etc.
I knew discord would go to shit after going public but even I didn't predict it would be this fast.
That's fucked
My life is on there, and I ain't gonna give them any ID. Wth do they expect me to do
They expect you to give them all your data
They already have if their entire life is on there
