 Discord is fighting a court battle against Nexon, a game publisher, over alleged copyright infringement on its platform. Nexon claims that Discord members are sharing pirated versions of their games, including MapleStory. Discord argues that complying with a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) subpoena would violate users' First Amendment rights to remain anonymous. The company has already provided Nexon with some user information and is refusing to hand over more, citing concerns about free speech and anonymity.
