DiscordData Breach

moderate

Researchers at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (Brazil) published a dataset of over 2 billion Discord messages scraped from 3,167 public servers spanning 2015–2024, covering 4.7 million users. Though the researchers claimed to have anonymized the data, the scraping violated Discord's Terms of Service. A separate tool called 'Searchcord' appeared using non-anonymized data from a different scrape, compounding user privacy concerns.

Full diff not available for this historical entry.

Detailed line-by-line diffs will be generated automatically for future policy changes detected by the scraper.
