So, Discord - by forcing your acceptance of their tos which renders them immune from damages done by "third parties*
By offloading a term of service that Discord requires you to provide.
If they force you to give the info, they are responsible for handling and storing it properly, no matter what some evil lawyer or exec says.
If laws make bad things legal because rich people can use words, then there needs to be some form of redress to return the spirit of the laws to the people.

Moral of the story - tech co’s and gov id requirements are evil and have no basis in actual security.
Now that peoples data has been exposed, they are susceptible to id theft. So, how does a site or gov deal with that?
There suddenly are over 9000 Stan Smith’s on the site. Weird.
Well, guys, for the safety of… … (Murmuring… We’re using the kids as justification this time or terrorism… Kids. OK.) the children, we will require a blood sample to verify your genetic code.
