2 days agoTo be fair to Discord, it has to work that way. They serve the files to you anywhere in the world on any device you use, don’t they? That requires hosting the content.
But it could very well be used for other purposes, too, of course.
Regardless, they need to have it in their terms of service that they can host the file, encrypted or otherwise, on their servers and reserve the right to serve the files to other users.
But yes, that’s true that they can’t necessarily access the files they’re hosting/serving.
