New Jersey Sues Discord Over Child Safety Concerns
New Jersey has become the first state to sue Discord, alleging the platform fails to protect underage users from predators, violating the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act. The lawsuit claims Discord allows children to easily create accounts and inadequately shields them from adult interactions, despite the company’s assertions of having stringent safety measures. Discord disputes these claims, emphasizing their commitment to safety, while facing scrutiny over past incidents involving child exploitation linked to their platform.
