Additionally, Veshnevskiy said Discord has ended its partnership with identity verification vendor Persona, whose financial ties to Palantir founder Peter Thiel intensified the backlash to the company's age assurance policy.

"On top of that, many of you are worried that this is just another big tech company finding new ways to collect your personal data. That we're creating a problem to justify invasive solutions," Veshnevskiy. "I get that skepticism. It's earned, not just toward us, but toward the entire tech industry. But that's not what we're doing."
