Discord delays controversial age verification rollout, saying it "missed the mark" following community outcry "We know many of you believe the right answer is not to do this at all." Discord co-founder and chief technology officer Stanislav Vishnevskiy has announced the company is delaying the global rollout of its controversial age verification requirements, admitting it "missed the mark". Earlier this month, Discord revealed it would begin a "phased global rollout" of a new update in March that would give all new and existing users a "teen-appropriate experience" by default. Essentially, this meant many of the platform's features - including access to age-gated channels, servers, app commands, and "sensitive content" - would be heavily restricted unless users had been age verified. This, the company said at the time, would enable it to give "teens strong protections while allowing verified adults flexibility".
