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.

I can sue discord and there's nothing their EULA can do to stop me.

God bless our right to litigate*
