Is Discord safe for 8 year olds?
The platform is not suitable for very young children
Discord contains adult content and must be labelled as only accessible to those over 18 years old. Anyone that opens the channel will see a warning message letting them know that it might contain graphic content and asking them to confirm that they are over 18.
Is Discord still safe?
Although there are minor issues with how Discord collects and operates user data, overall, it is a rather safe platform, especially compared to other apps such as Skype, Slack, or Teams. These minor security loopholes here and there might not be as significant when gaming.
Is it illegal to ask for ID on Discord?
I do not believe any discord or owner of a server has any right to ask for someone's ID or driver's license or government id. This does not only violates terms of service. It's also against the law.
