I think the be careful what you do on Facebook is implied. He's highlighting something that's less expected, where you may need to be careful what you do on Windows systems.

I guess most methods of attack on a FOSS projects are independent of the country of origin. But, I could still see them being forced to do things they don't want in the US, without being able to tell anyone. Hopefully if that ever happened it wouldn't be too hard to detect, but you never know.

People gotta earn money to survive, I don't blame the employees for this. And this is not just a case of Meta's privacy being bad. This is close government involvement with potentially serious impacts and implications across all US based platforms.

It's not “USA bad, so product bad”, it's the concern that the US government can do a lot more to US based projects and you probably wont know untill it's too late.

Yeah, I've been there. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

I don't remember it like that at all. I saw lots of complaints about the privacy impacts and how ineffective it would be.

Why shouldn't young children be able to use Discord? I have kids and want them to be able to use it to chat while they play games with friends and with me.

I'll try to keep them to only chatting with people they know until I think they're mature enough.

So reduce their numbers and get gun control. What's not to like?

I think they've purposefully worded it in a way that's less intuitive for more engagement. Obviously there would be many things that would adversely impact both semen quality and lifespan...

Discord is great (ignoring privacy concerns) for playing games and chatting with some friends. But, it's crazy that so many people seem to think it's good for more public information sharing and support.

Primitive is a relative term. As long as we continue to progress, we won't be primitive for the current time. But, would be considered primitive in the future.
