==Reg. "Introduction of forced arbitration (Mar. 2024)"==

An arbitration clause has been present in the ToS since 2017 as evident by [https://web.archive.org/web/20170521173532/https://discordapp.com/terms#:~:text=ARBITRATION this archive], therefor that section is inaccurate and should probably be removed and/or edited to reflect that.

==Security risk: Presenting cryptic "direct link" in article==

The "direct link" to assist with account deletion seems like a security risk for the reader. The link is to a cryptic domain ( dis.gd ), not the primary one for this company. Anybody could edit that URL on the wiki, substituting one that lead to a malicious website. I think the link should be removed unless somebody knows how to make the link secure.
