Ever tried to ban a botnet owner from a service they want to use?

It’s basically impossible. They have money, IPs, identities, anything you could possibly want to evade.

It would be pretty funny if the age verification stuff blocked some of these folks.

  • Discord age verification is only for content filters, adult-themed servers, and a few other features.

    They aren’t requiring age verification for everyone to join servers and chat. The headlines and panic really got away from the actual story.

If you just look at the messages in those kinds of discords. It's blatant. They aren't even trying to hide it.
