If I am required to do this, I am purging my Discord account immediately. I am not giving them face scans.
No, it doesn’t have to work that way, as we can see by the existence of messaging platforms with end-to-end encryption.
I suspect the person to whom I replied understands this, but their comment could have been misinterpreted as implying that Discord messages are private, so I wanted to clarify.
Regardless, they need to have it in their terms of service that they can host the file, encrypted or otherwise, on their servers and reserve the right to serve the files to other users.
But yes, that’s true that they can’t necessarily access the files they’re hosting/serving.
