Funny thing is, EULA agreements like this have already been shot down in so many cases, it’s dumb at this point to try and pull this off. They’re just trying to test if anyone will actually pull the trigger on a class action.
Yeah, not sure why folks care
I can sue discord and there’s nothing their EULA can do to stop me.
God bless our right to litigate*

High five for unalienable rights

Really appreciate you guys over there keeping up the pressure on corporations to act ethically/ accordingly.
Here’s hoping some of that splash back happens over here.
Came to say this. Here in the AU you cannot exclude certain things, this being one of them. They can write it all they like into the TOS, but cannot be enforced. There are many examples, but basically no TOS/Warranty/T&C can exclude or explicitly deny any rights you have or laws that protect you.
Similar to warranty here. Many companies like to put “limited liability” and 30 day warranty. But in AU, the warranty has to fall within our laws. (for example Samsung saying warranty on a $5000 TV is 2 years. Well in AU if the tv is that expensive, you have the right to claim warranty on manufacturing failure for at least 5 years.) Many items we buy here, have an “Australia only warranty amendment page” stuffed in the box!
I attempted to email [email protected] per the ToS and got a bounceback.

Ah, thanks!
Everyone calm down. They’re just going to use it for training AI and if you love tech you love AI. So this is a non-issue.
The trained AI will make their public offering so much more desirable

The key presses ‘/’ and ‘s’ (in that order) would solve that problem.
learning to fucking read would solve it better
Name checks out.
I don’t see how this matters to the common user. Why am I going to disagree with Discord enough to sue them. What services do they provide other than a way to communicate for gamers?
Are companies involved? Yes. But I’m not a company and I don’t really care if they have a hard time dealing with it. They replaced Teamspeak and I will use it as a platform to communicate. If that changes I might change my stance, but I don’t see any other need for it.
You shouldn’t give up your rights in exchange for nothing. In some places that’s not even legal.
Maybe it won’t be. I don’t see the situation coming up often. In fact I think this might make them more prone to being sued.
