Discord Confirms Major Data Breach Exposing User Info

Discord, one of the world’s leading communication platforms for gaming and online communities, has confirmed a data breach involving a third-party customer service provider that resulted in the exposure of sensitive user information. The breach affected a subset of users who had previously contacted Discord’s customer support or Trust & Safety teams, compromising personal data such as full names, email addresses, and, in some cases, scanned copies of government-issued identification documents.
