Element: The Privacy Minded Discord Alternative
Channel: Jazztache
Date: 2022-12-11

Element is a chat platform focused on privacy. Today we're going to be exploring why it's a much better alternative to Discord, and why it is a complete upgrade to Discord's empire of tracking and spyware. This video goes into detail about what Element is, why you should leave Discord, what the Matrix protocol is, and what you can do to arm yourself with increased privacy. We also discuss a few other risk factors as well, so I hope the extra detail is appreciated. :)

We're also going to be talking about some of the creepy stuff Discord does, and their association with the CCP. Discord is owned by Tencent, so we will also be going into detail on that as well.

Be sure to share this one around! I hope it will remind people to tighten up their security.
