Oh sick! So if this goes through, precedent is set that anyone who can come up with a reason greater than “my video game leaked”, can legally broker collect harvest request data from select discord servers that can directly tie the real identity of an individual to their windows device id.

I can’t see that being abused at all.

    Yeah this feels like a turning point. Right now for most people it's a vague threat of privacy most people are somewhat aware of like "meh it's probably fine". If this goes through, it changes to a very real risk of being systematically doxxed at any time by whoever asks.
