gollark: And Discord have a very popular heavily data-driven service without, seemingly, much of a strategy for monetization, and a privacy policy which probably allows them to do basically anything.
gollark: Discord and IRC both only encrypt data going to/from the server.
gollark: IRC servers support SSL these days, so it's encrypted from client to server. Which is what Discord has.
gollark: ... IRC has that too?
