Discord Users Are Being Tracked Through Data-Scraping Site
Of course there's an enterprise plan for the Feds and AI trainers
Internet-scraping outfit Spy.pet claims to have harvested more than four billion public messages made by nearly 620 million users on more than 14,000 Discord chat servers – and is selling access to this trove.
The website presents the data it's collected in several ways. Each known user has a profile, which contains all known aliases, pronouns, connected accounts to other platforms such as Steam and GitHub, Discord servers joined, and public messages. If you wanted to quite literally spy on a Discord user or users, Spy.pet lets you do that, for a fee.

Good thing I have 5 Gmail accounts and never use my main for anything.
Go ahead. Track foggymailjunk@gmail.com and all my preferences.
never use my main for anything
Are you sure it's your main?
I use it for professional and personal things. Friends, family, official forms like for work, etc. and it's 5 characters, readable, no numbers. I could legit sell it for >$1000 and it doesn't get any spam beyond shit from my CC offering me deals and other stuff that makes a tangible amount of sense to be on my main email.
But like, not my Lemmy or former reddit account(s), or Facebook (yes family, etc)...
I even have low value Gmail accts that I use for like... Testing scams or something.
Testing scams
Any non-scams yet? Or is it safe to assume anything that looks like a scam, is one?
Nah I've found plenty of non-scams. Like $1 VSTs on some random guys domain (used a visa gift card), stuff like that.
But yeah lots of scams.
