Discord has announced that it will begin requiring government-issued ID or face scans for use of large parts of its platform, extending beyond its original compliance with UK ID Verification Law and various Online Safety Acts around the world. What we found disturbing was what seems to be Discord's strange web of connections, including links to the UK Government via partners, links to Peter Thiel and Palantir (and even Epstein) via venture capital-funded identity verification services, and Discord's prior partner data breaches leading to concerns of the application's ability to protect its users. This all comes at a time when Discord is rumored to be preparing for an IPO, which would be an awfully good time for Discord to suddenly know a whole lot more about its users -- data that could be valuable for marketing or other disagreeable uses. At least as a positive, this has led to a rise of Discord alternatives.

In this video, we mostly define WTF Palantir is, but also expand on other topics of AI facial recognition technology, so-called "pre-crime" arrests facilitated by other technologies and agencies, and how NVIDIA feels like it's becoming, effectively, a defense contractor. Instead of 'normal' weapons, though, NVIDIA is selling AI technology to be turned into weapons.
