Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):Discord’s second attempt at age verification is already having problems. Discord now estimates your age from things like account age, servers, communities and connected games and says it doesn’t use your messages or calls, and around 90% of users won’t need to verify manually. Some users are being put in the wrong age group, while others see different results on different devices. Discord was also cooked alive for making jokes about the bugs during the rollout. The company says it is going ahead with the system because more places, including Brazil and Texas, are introducing laws that require online services to check users’ ages.
