The New Jersey attorney general sued Discord on Thursday, alleging that the company misled consumers about child safety features on the gaming-centric social messaging app.
The lawsuit alleges that Discord has a “strategy of employing difficult to navigate and ambiguous safety settings to lull parents and children into a false sense of safety.”
One of the lawsuit’s allegations centers around Discord’s age-verification process, which the plaintiffs believe is flawed.
