When your password leaks:
→ Change your password
→ Problem solved
When your biometric data leaks:
→ You can't change your face
→ You can't change your fingerprints
→ The compromise is permanent
→ Your biometric data is in breach databases forever
This is why facial recognition for age verification is dangerous.
🧵 So what can you do about it?
Discord isn't the only platform pushing biometric surveillance.
More platforms will follow. "Age verification" is just the beginning.
Here's what I'm doing about it:
I'm building @Snugg - social media that will NEVER require:
❌ Facial recognition
❌ Fingerprint scans
❌ Biometric data of any kind
Why? Because we chose a business model that doesn't need surveillance.
Subscription model = we serve users, not advertisers.
No ads = no need for behavioral tracking
No tracking = no biometric data to "verify" you
No biometric data = nothing permanent to breach
Simple.
If 700+ of you care enough to boost the problem,
Maybe some of you want to be part of the solution?

No biometric data. Not now. Not ever.
