The Big Tech broligarchy are trying to take over the planet, while supporting fascist movements everywhere because they won't stop them doing it.

"...Discord has managed to make the rollout of its global age assurance policy seem even grimier. The company has informed some users in the UK they may be part of "an experiment" with Persona, an age verification vendor whose investors include Peter Thiel, co-founder of ICE's premier surveillance provider, Palantir."

Oh, good: Discord's age verification rollout has ties to Palantir co-founder and panopticon architect Peter Thiel

Discord is "experimenting" with an age authentication vendor whose major investors include Thiel's Founders Fund.

@aral @MostlyTato I see you're using the word "people" in the loosest possible sense of "technically members of the only extant species of Homo, at least from a purely biological/taxonomic perspective". 🤷🏻‍♂️
