Discord

Discord is a communication platform that allows users to interact through text, voice, and video chat in communities called servers. It primarily serves as a social networking tool for gamers and other interest-based groups.

Why it’s in the news: Discord is in the news now for rolling out a global age verification system, a move that followed significant user backlash but was implemented to comply with regulations and create a safer environment for younger users.
