Discord is now using end-to-end encryption for all voice and video calls across all platforms: desktop, mobile, web and console.
It’s been a very long time coming – the company first shared its privacy plans back in 2023 and began the migration process a year later …
The company said in the summer of 2023 that it was experimenting with end-to-end encryption but faced challenges due to the need to introduce this without impacting latency or quality degradation in a service relying on a great many servers.
It was a little more than a year later when the company announced the protocol it would be using and began a gradual migration process. That migration is now complete across all of Discord’s platforms.
End-to-end Encryption is now standard for every voice and video call on Discord, outside of stage channels. No opt-in required.
