What's up, everyone? Welcome to the WAN Show. We've got a great show for you guys this week. Of course, the big news is Discord requiring facial scans- [groans] ... for age verification. Oh, man, you can, you can tell how passionate the writing team is about a particular topic when you see how many notes- [laughing] It's so long. [laughing] ... they created for it. [laughing] Jordan is like, "I am going to very thoroughly talk about why this is very upsetting."
Luke Lafreniere· Host1:06
Yeah.
Linus Sebastian· Host1:08
[laughing] Yeah, we're gonna be getting into that. Also... Oh, man, we had, we had, we had the other huge privacy nightmare. Did, did anyone watch Ring's Super Bowl ad? 'Cause I did.
Luke Lafreniere· Host1:21
Yeah.
Linus Sebastian· Host1:22
Yeah, [moans] not looking good. Oh, okay, what else we got, Luke? Get- find me some good news.
