Comment on Discord Users Threaten Exodus Over Age Verification Face Scan Controversy

Anyone want to script through the signup process and feed the damn thing a bunch of AI generated faces?

Typically when a signup page is difficult to automate, you can use a library meant for automated testing within a browser—like Selenium. Also, disposable emails services come in handy—like mailsac. If they block all the disposable email services, you can also use your iCloud+ custom email domain (if you have it) with the Allow All Incoming Messages setting turned on—then you use randomly generated user handles for each signup.

Not sure about the easiest way to recycle your IP, in case they monitor signups that way too. I’m sure there’s a way to overcome that too via VPN.

If 2% of Discord users did this 50 times, that would make half of Discords user profiles and face recognition data completely fake.
