judging by lack of description on this post, and the videos description, it's a rage bait video based off potential intentions behind a website that logs discord activity and sells it for profit. The video description gave a big "I'm trying to egg you to watch this" vibe though so I didn't go further. The site named has been shut down a few times now, it just renames itself every time and boom operational again.

my opinion is that's a risk you gotta take posting stuff online and it likely won't be going anywhere, nothings secure unless you trust everyone involved. I wish for privacy but I don't expect it unless I can meet that criteria

I've watched the video. The conclusion is that some people the video creator knows found the site's operator's discord, which can be used to identify him if the investigation goes to court.

this video mentions Mastodon, and helped an investigation.

THIS VIDEO MENTIONS MASTODON, AND HELPED AN INVESTIGATION.
