What should we all be doing more like Discord and Reddit?

Discord: Why Isn’t It Being Scrutinized?

Published: March 29, 2025

Everyone keeps talking about Telegram—how it’s a hub for foreign spam networks, romance fraud, and all kinds of cybercrime. But here’s the real question:

Where are they getting this info from? What’s the source? Who’s leading these investigations and why does it feel like they're laser-focused on Telegram while Discord flies under the radar?

Telegram is painted like the evolution of underground comms: think Pidgin, ICQ, Skype. Discord? Nah. It gets a free pass as a "video game chat platform." But that’s outdated and dangerously naive. Discord is just as capable, just as encrypted, and it’s saturated with niche communities that slip through traditional content monitoring systems.

Discord users are sharp. They know how to spoof identities and compartmentalize discussions. They’re also deeply aware of mainstream platforms—many cross-post to Instagram, TikTok, Reddit. This isn’t an isolated gamer zone; it’s a new operating base.

So why is Telegram getting the feds' attention and not Discord? Why are people still acting like Discord is harmless fun when it's being used the same way—if not more covertly—than Telegram?

This lack of scrutiny isn’t an oversight. It’s negligence.

Threat Analysis: The Strategic Risks of Japan/India/UK Space Capabilities on U.S. Military Space Assets and National Security Killian H. Yates | Sunday, February 23, 2025 www.LinkedIn.com/in/KillianYates United States of America Executive Summary Japan’s advancements in space debris removal technologies—especially through initiatives like Astroscale and JAXA’s Commercial Removal of Debris Demonstration (CRD2) program—pose a dual-use risk to U.S. military assets in space. While these capabilities are publicly focused on maintaining space sustainability, their precision and operational flexibility could be repurposed to undermine U.S. space dominance.
