Discord Enforces Age Verification For Access
9.2
Relevance Score
Starting next month, Discord will require users to verify their age via a face scan or government ID or face restricted features; unverified accounts will lose access to age-restricted servers, stage channels, and receive graphic-content filters. The March rollout blocks VPN workarounds and uses an age-inference model as an alternative. The move echoes broader platform shifts toward age assurance and raises privacy and data-risk concerns after a prior vendor breach.
