Discord is also rolling out an age inference model that analyzes metadata like the types of games a user plays, their activity on Discord, and behavioral signals like signs of working hours or the amount of time they spend on Discord.

“If we have a high confidence that they are an adult, they will not have to go through the other age verification flows,” Badalich says.

Translation: If you're foolish enough to install our spyware on your computer, let it auto-run and we are able to spy enough on you to convincingly know you're an adult you won't have to hand us an ID as we already know everything about you (and sell it to the gestapo, blood-boy loving billionaires, and regular marketers too I suppose).

You could pin my age just on games played lol
