    UPDATE: Double counter did a MASSIVE update that addresses all of the privacy issues.
    - They have a way to opt out of the lens feature, both for a whole server and for a user across discord
    - AND, if you request to delete your data, you WILL NOT get banned!
    Nathan, the owner of double counter, turned this around immaculately. Massive respect and props to him. And thank you all for being constructive with your feedback and coming to this result.
    Friendly reminder, these vulnerabilities were disclosed and FIXED before this video. From the Double Counter announcement and from what I saw, this was never exploited in the wild.

And only 8% of them passed inspections. 8%, nearly 1/10 tanks actually worked as intended for as long as intended. That's a horrible percentage, yet they were cheap enough that you could outproduce the German tanks, and the armor wasn't the part that was failing, so like hey, it'll do for the time being... And then they never actually fixed the problem, with their tanks getting shredded in the later half of the war, as Germans upgraded their guns.

I'm not sure why this wasn't mentioned, because with a bot's clientid you can just write code to have it loop through every server, ban every player, delete every message... you get the idea.

    The real issue with the "military grade" term is that it's overused to the point that it no longer has the same meaning. I mean, HTTPS technically uses "military grade" encryption, and while VPN providers also have it as their main selling point, they're also not technically wrong, which is how they keep getting away from being accused of false advertising.
    As Tom Scott used to describe VPN providers overusing the term: "is the sort of marketing that scares people into buying something they might not need".

I also don't use verification bots anymore but rather just let people in using discord's own system and if we get raided i just pause invites for 24 hours and investigate to see what link is being used to raid the server and then delete it. If it's disboard or something i'll just make the listing private and remake the invite.

    If you use AES, SHA or HMAC (all widely used and basically the standard), you are using "military-grade". You still need to implement them correctly, but the algorhithms themselfs are top tier.
    That is what "Military-Grade" means in software security every single time.
    Use it as a warning label, if someone calls his security features "military-grade", he is either trying to deceive you or doesn't know much about security/cryptography.

    Another issue with letting bots have full control over servers. Why don't people learn? Why did NTTS not say anything about how Double Counter _should not_ be an administrator. If all it does is: give roles, kick and ban users. Then it should only have those roles. It should not have the roles to modify channels, rename users, and more.
    Plus if you want to use Double Counter for verification but not banning, you could prevent it from banning users. This also means that if a user wants their data deleted, Double Counter can't ban that user from your server.

    We're now at a point in time where everything is using at least military grade encryption. Sometimes more. Tranditionally, military grade = AES256. So this means that if you seen https in your browser's address bar, you're using AES (advanced encryption standard). Which basically means everything is using military grade encryption.

    Programmer with engineering degree here.
    I've seen some code and this here is worse than code from students that i've seen.
    To those who don't know too much stuff about programming:
    Most websites are built using Three-Tier Architecture (or in simpler words, are using three different "components" to work). Basically that goes down to three tiers:
    - Presentation tier (what you see, all the shiny stuff)
    - Application tier (processing of the data, etc)
    - Databse tier (database and "back-end" stuff)
    And most important here is the back-end stuff. The back-end is simply just a "brain" of the web application. Back-end processes vulnerable data and HAVE TO BE HIDDEN AT ALL TIMES!
    There are languages that hide code automatically (or simply you don't have access to it because server won't let you) and they are used to create back-end of the application.
    Here, they simply put some of the back-end stuff in the front-end code (and this should never happen in the first place - and certainly NOT ENTIRE ID's AND OTHER DATA).
    Literally they made this code so bad I'm thinking it may be intentional - because it's really hard to mess up back-end that bad (back-end code is hidden by default)

    the lens thing would only serve someone who is getting stalked or a server trying to keep 1 creep out... problem with that is you get banned platform wide and automatically... you only need petty beef with one server owner who deletes months of messages (10k?) to look like you are a psychopath or maybe Discord TOS changes so they have to delete bulks of messages and people will be mass banned everywhere...
