Discord to make public server chats searchable starting November 16
- —Only Discoverable Servers with at least 1,000 members are affected; private channels and DMs are excluded
- —Usernames and avatars are hidden, but AI summaries may be inaccurate and mislead outsiders
- —Member opt-outs do not remove already published messages or block summaries, which admins control
- —Lending protocol Morpho set its Discord channels to read-only after repeated scams
Why it matters: Exposing server conversations widens scammers' reach into crypto communities and raises phishing risks for projects relying on Discord support channels.
