iDoMnCi(@DomAtSiteSage):People should take some personal accountability and stop using platforms that store emails, phone numbers, IPs, and device IDs in a form they can just hand over on demand. There are already messaging apps built so this exact scenario is impossible.. ones that use end-to-end encryption, zero-knowledge design, aggressive data minimization, and no long-term metadata logging. When those companies get a subpoena, the honest answer is “we have nothing useful to give you.”

Update: They’re not just hunting the leaker. Take-Two got court approval to pull personal info (emails, phone numbers, IPs, device IDs) from ~100k Discord users across multiple servers... including DarkViperAU’s 90k-member server. Most of those people are complete bystanders who had nothing to do with the leaks. A multi-billion dollar company turning Discord into a mass surveillance tool the second their IP gets threatened. And remember… once they have that personal data, there’s no real guarantee they can even protect it. These big companies get breached regularly. When (not if) it happens again, your info is just sitting there waiting to be leaked. Greed + power = this exact playbook.
