Discord wants to void your right to sue them in court — but you can opt out
A quick brief on the service’s new arbitration clause
In terms of this new clause, it means that if you have any kind of dispute to settle with Discord, you can’t sue them or join a class-action lawsuit of other affected users. Basically, if you wanted to take advantage of the McDonald’s app (say, to get free fries on Fridays), you had sign up and agree to an arbitration clause. This is also noted in the fine print: Users can write an email to arbitration-opt-out@discord.com within “30 days of April 15, 2024 or when you first register your Discord account, whichever is later.” The NCLC has a template that you can download, and it’s not complicated.
