#Discord re-set this flag automatically during the last update. If you don't want it scanning your computer and uploading that info to their servers, check your privacy settings.
This is awful.
@gdorn what does that option even do? Like snoop for other programs running?
@smudge Since the client isn't open-source and I don't have wireshark running, I can't say for sure. The point appears to be to help you set up connections to other accounts on other services, but given what I have seen of payloads sent to the discord servers, everything that scan finds is almost certainly passed along whether you want to set up that connection or not.
