A new privacy concern has emerged involving Discord, a popular communication platform, where a spy site named Spy Pet has been reported to scrape and archive messages and user activity from over 14,000 Discord servers. This data, which includes details about user interactions in voice channels and server memberships, is being sold for as little as $5. The site claims to have accessed a database containing over 4 billion messages from 600 million users. Discord is actively trying to combat this scraping and is currently investigating the situation.
