It was a collection of silly quotes from IRC channels everywhere, many of which dated back to the 90s. It was rarely ever updated in the 2010s, but now, the URL no longer resolves.
Last capture was July 2023. https://web.archive.org/web/20230601000000*/bash.org
EDIT Someone archived all the quotes on the Internet Archive.
How is Discord a privacy nightmare?
deleted by creator
Don’t they claim that they can’t access your chat logs unless they get like reports and stuff?
Edit: This question needs an answer, not a downvote
I doubt that. If you do a gdpr request for your data, you’ll see how much they log about your activities. Obviously chats and VC activity, but also all the timestamps of what you play, session data over all time, etc.
They told me it was encrypted unless you got reported
Or maybe… How is discord any worse of a privacy nightmare than IRC? I love me some IRC, but it ain’t exactly a bastion of secrecy.
IRC clients don’t have loads of telemetry like Discord does. And IRC is a protocol instead of a platform, so there isn’t a single set of servers hosting and logging ALL conversations.
That’s fair, but IRC also tends to leak information about users to everybody. They’re maybe bad in slightly different ways, but frankly if you care about privacy that much you probably shouldn’t use either, at least not with additional protections.
IRC doesn’t even see that much info about each user to begin with, especially compared to Discord, and if you’re talking about public IPs - hiding them from other users is now a common thing on servers.
