Discord cannot be used anonymously via Tor without providing a telephone number to tie it to your real-world identity, and it does not even pretend to support end to end cryptography, even for DMs.

No matter how shiny and useful it is, it is dangerous as a tool as a result. They are amassing a giant trove of users location histories and plaintext full chat content, including all DMs.

I have stopped using it for these reasons.

I really hope they make some changes to make it safer for end users, or go out of business so that encrypted systems can take their place. Privacy isn’t important until, suddenly, it is.
