An “unauthorized party” may have accessed the names of users, the last four digits of credit card numbers, and more.

        I am honestly surprised it took this long for a company to get hacked(surprised it was discord though).

          They’re not the first. The first one happened in the same week the digital safety act was put in place

          To be fair it was a third party partner, not Discord itself. But you of course knew that since you read the first sentence of the article.

          One of Discord’s third-party customer service providers was compromised by an “unauthorized party”

        I was thinking that, you’d think they’d strike once the pot is a little larger.

      I am surprised it took this long. Probably happening since day one and just now getting reported.
