· Texas Border Business
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against Discord, Inc. for allegedly misleading parents about the safety of its platform while allowing child predators to exploit minors. The lawsuit follows an investigation that began in October 2025 after reports of serious incidents involving minors, including a 13-year-old girl who was sexually assaulted and a 15-year-old boy who died by suicide after being coerced into producing explicit content. Paxton is demanding that Discord enhance safety measures, including defaulting all settings to maximum protection and implementing age verification, along with civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation.
