It is most likely that like previously that the founder will once again run away with the sack of cash like he did with Openfeint. When it is eventually bought out, the tech giant does not value you or your privacy any more than Discord does right now. Supposedly there are still talks with Microsoft, while Sony has already bought out a significant but still minority stake in Discord.

Discord is heavily dependent on venture capitalist funding (which is an extremely unstable model). Sketchy business model : There is no way the freemium nitro barriers keep discord from going under, Discord's entire hope is that eventually it will be bought out by a tech giant (like openfeint). ) This was all done in a way to bypass certain laws and barriers Openfeint was accusedof monitoring, accessing and manipulating sensitive user data (such as dm's, FB&twitter profiles, browser history, GPS location. Followed by multiple lawsuits by it's users for selling all their data to a third party without any prior notice, violating their own policy.

Red flags start with the fact that it was sold to a chinese company for 104 million USD. Their founder is Citron (also founder of Discord).

Discord's initial idea was a program called Openfeint / Aurora Feint.
