Me: You know I'm an adult, I'm emailing you from my domain name that's 20 years old and is linked to my account.
Discord: Dox or it didn't happen.

Discord: We leaked the contents of your support tickets to some asshole, sorry. 🤷

They actually sent me a personalized email enumerating the ticket numbers that leaked, in which I pointed out I do both human rights work and thwarting organized crime and that, therefore, this is an especially serious risk to me.
