Pourquoi c'est important
Discord has activated end-to-end encryption for all voice and video calls, a feature launched in 2024. This move enhances user privacy, ensuring that only participants can access their conversations. This follows a trend of social media platforms making changes to their messaging encryption policies.
Messaging platform giant Discord has switched on end-to-end encrypted voice and video messaging for every user. The end-to-end encryption feature means that Discord users can now communicate privately without anyone else being able to listen in to their calls, not even Discord.
This is a major privacy win for the community’s hundreds of millions of users, soon after social media giant Meta pulled the plug on Instagram’s end-to-end encrypted messaging feature earlier this year. TikTok said it would also not end-to-end encrypt user messages after it became a U.S. company.
Discord launched the end-to-end encrypted voice and video calling feature in 2024, and on Monday rolled out the feature to every user, no action needed.
