I'll be honest, I don't even know what you're asking. Discord owns all data on Discord. Server "owners" do not own anything from a data security standpoint. If you are asking a question in good faith, please rephrase it into smaller sentences. If you are arguing in bad faith, I have no desire to continue this thread.

Haveibeenpwned.com lets you check if your accounts are compromised

I'm sorry my guy but how in the world are you suggesting pirating live television

I'm sorry, but it's probably in your best interest to do some research and actually read the discord Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before arguing about something you lack knowledge in. Creators of a Discord server are not responsible for members' data that they send to Discord. That relationship is between Discord and the Member, not the creator of a server. Any "contractual agreement" you are talking about is covered when you click "I agree" when creating an account, the devs' accounts included.

This is a ridiculous argument that has a correct answer that Discord themselves will tell you.

Yeah. The moral is "every and all devices have an unknown number of zero-days inactive or actively being exploited at any given time", not "iPhone is just as insecure as everything else". There's a difference, and credit is deserved where it's due.

This is kind of a ridiculous take. I hate iPhones, but this is not a "hurr durr iPhones bad and insecure" moment. I implore you to look at the sophistication of this attack. The attack chain is so ridiculously long and complex, and only because of the security of the iPhone. This is not a script kiddie attack, and could only be executed by a very determined party.

No device is secure, and any and all computers could potentially fall victim to an attack like this, but it is absolutely ignorant to say that iPhones don't offer any more security than other devices.

It's like driving to a city just to get out of your car and shout why you hate that city, then leave. It's just like... why not go somewhere else then and move on with your life?

I do, but what I don't understand is subscribing to a community on an instance you hate. Or did you not realize that this is a Lemmy world community?

[–] sirfancy@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Imagine going out of your instance to a community on one you hate just to post hate about it. What happened to blocking and moving on

What is the point of ever asking a question on the Internet if it should always just be met with "do your own research"? For the record, I did Google around and I couldn't find that Wikipedia article, and when I did see it in another comment, I didn't still understand the concept. This comes across as incredibly gatekeeper-y. Don't understand why I'm not "allowed" into the conversation because I'm being barred from context because I don't understand an initialism and my research failed.

Wtf does EEE mean, why must people assume everyone knows every acronym

[–] sirfancy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It's essentially a brand new platform. A tiny dip a month after the initial boom is far from "losing users" and is not indicative of trends. I don't understand why everyone is so obsessed with growing Lemmy as fast as possible.
