404 Media previously reported kids said they were using photos of Trump and G-Man from Half Life to bypass the age verification software in the popular VR game Gorilla Tag. That game uses the service k–ID, which is the same as what Discord is using.
You can’t pull one over on these kids. They have tons of free time and none of the responsibility of adulthood, they’re gonna bypass whatever the fuck you put in front of them.
I was that kid that refused to be constrained and I’m so fucking proud of this generation for carrying on the legacy.
Same. Now I’m an adult who refuses to be constrained.
The only thing that taught me more about computers than trying to get porn is trying to pirate software.
Don’t forget about terminally online single adults, too.
Lmao I didn’t had “bypassing corpo surveillance with a vtuber software” on my 2026 bingo
And thus begins the three-legged race between imaged-based age verification and kids. (Prediction: the kids will win, but it will take the other side a looooong time to admit it.)
The winners will be the middle men selling fixes for the fixes.
paywalled shit
this is the tool https://github.com/promptpirate-x/discord-id-bypass-tool
Have they learned nothing since people used screenshots of death stranding the first this technology was used on a major platform?
If it works with such basic 3d models then what is stopping people from using an ai generated or stolen picture?
Kinda makes me think the goal is not to keep kids safe, its to avoid accountability when kids end up not being safe.
It was not screenshots. The entire point of the Death Stranding thing was that you had a live camera feed of a face that passes the “liveliness” checks that prevent you from using static pictures.
Oh that detail is a TIL
I saw someone painted their thumb with basic facial lineament and they move their thumb when the prompt asks for it. It guesses that as 13-15 years old, even though the paint has a beard. lol
how about just NOT using discord?

Here you go, mates.
Someone had made a bypass hack that didn’t even need 3D anything, only generated metadata, but the ID vendor has patched it: https://age-verifier.kibty.town/
The…sims? We are fighting this rot with the sims basically?
That‘s honestly less surprising or impressive than people using Death Stranding for that.
Alright. But how do we stop the AI spyware from constantly monitoring our activity?
Might not be an issue for me since I’m using the flatpak of Vesktop, but getting all my none-technical friends to move away from Discord will be pain.
