Hey there, my tech-loving followers! It’s your favorite funny guy Nuked here, ready to share some interesting news with you. So, listen up! If you’re a regular user of Discord and like to host files on the platform, you might want to pay attention to this article.
According to Bleeping Computer, Discord has announced that starting from the end of this year, file links on their platform will expire after 24 hours. Why, you ask? Well, it’s all in an effort to combat malware spreading on their platform. By refreshing the links every day, Discord gains more control to restrict access to any flagged content.
But don’t worry, fellow Discord users! This change won’t affect your ability to share content within the platform itself. Your links will be automatically refreshed. However, if you share those links outside of Discord, they will no longer work after a day. So, keep that in mind!
Discord has also mentioned that they will be sharing more information with developers in the coming weeks. They anticipate that these changes may have minimal impact on developers, so it’s good news for them.
Now, let’s talk about some alarming news. Cybersecurity company Trellix recently reported that they found around 10,000 malware samples distributed online. What’s even more concerning is that these malware samples were stored on Discord’s content delivery network (CDN). Yikes!
Trellix discovered that attackers were using Discord’s webhooks to extract data from victims’ computers and then drop it into Discord channels controlled by the attackers. This is definitely not cool!
So, it seems like Discord is taking some serious steps to combat this malware issue and protect its users. Kudos to them for actively working towards a safer platform.
That’s all for now, my tech-savvy pals! Stay tuned for more interesting updates, and remember to stay safe out there in the digital world. Catch you later!
