I wonder if they’ll take into account that, had I signed up at (the youngest possible age of) 13, the age of my account would then make me 21. I suppose they can’t really sell that inferred data…
Did they edit the article or am I maybe just blind? I don’t see metadata being mentioned anywhere in the article or in the original Discord announcement. I even did a ctrl+f on meta, and nothing came up.

You could have lied then too and not been 13 at the time
I’m actually seven right now. 👶
Impressive online skills for a second grader
The article says they may check metadata to verify users as well, so as far as I can tell, they will take that into account.

Oh dang no this article didn’t, the one from the Verge mentioned it: https://www.theverge.com/tech/875309/discord-age-verification-global-roll-out
Sorry I read 2-3 articles about this and mixed up which ones mentioned what.
Ah, thanks a lot for the link! I appreciate it. They really should put that information into their official announcement as well.
