"A catastrophic breach has impacted Discord user data including selfies and identity documents uploaded as part of the app’s verification process, email addresses, phone numbers, approximately where the user lives, and much more. "

Discord requires selfies now? Lol.

I tried again recently to make a fake Facebook account since nobody uses other places to buy and sell used shit. Logged in then they asked for a 360 degree video of my head.

Nope.

Who are the idiots that do this anyways?
