Discord plans on experimenting with end to end encryption in voice channels

Techlore Discussions
@techlore. Will they be opening their system to third parties under EU interoperability requirements or are they too small?

@techlore Unpopular opinion, but this is a bad businsss decision. Discord has struggled with crime, pedos, scams, and generally rude gamers since day one.

As soon as the government finds out they can’t just demand data from Discord anymore, since there is none, Discord will feel the full wrath of the government’s Fuck-That-O-Matic.

@tekeous @techlore and so have all other encrypted app sadly. Yet the extreme majority of users are not criminals and deserves to have their communication protected and encrypted.
@tekeous @techlore They could just modify the client such that the client itself will send decrypted content to authorities or admins when reported, like Facebook does if you report a message in an E2EE conversation. That would check the box of giving people access to questionable content as long as a participant reports it, without actually compromising the encryption.
@techlore Discord really needs to be more private. It isnt safe
