Comment on Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month
KeenFlame@feddit.nu 2 days agoI don’t understand, of course we can access it?
A lot of discord content is private, and those that aren’t require you to have discord to search. On top of that, I’m pretty sure you need to join a server before you can search it’s contents.
Since I don’t use discord, there is no real way for me to access content hosted on it. Compared to Reddit or a Forum, I don’t need to be a member of the community to access information shared there.
But the data is accessible and a migration can be done by those who posted it? Depends on local laws I guess… their eula states everything you send in discord now belongs to then, but that is not allowed in the eu and many other countries
Sounds like we are talking about different kinds of “access”. My original post was just lamenting that to the general web, discord is like a black hole. Things go there and never come out as you can only access the content through its app.

You can only get it if you install Discord.

No, GDPR laws allows me to download all data and also enforcing its deletion without using the app ever again

GDPR laws allow you to download the contents of a Discord server that you have never been on? I thought it only required access to your own data.
