Discord recently released (and then unreleased) a new permission that would allow Discord activities to see your IP address, location, and web browser. Is this a bad thing? Is my IP going to be shared with sketchy discord apps and scammers will use this to scam me or possibly extort me?
Well uhh, no. In fact Discord bots have been able to get your IP for a LOOOOOOOOONG time. So buckle in as I show you what's going on with IPs on Discord and whether or not you should be worried.
