Deanonymization does not necessarily require the complete exposure of an individual's identity.

bruh it’s not just guessing a country this attack can pin down a user’s spot within 250 miles that’s close enough to know what city or county they’re in, acting like it isn’t a "huge feat" totally misses the point. this kinda tracking can really mess with people’s privacy

>250 miles
lol no, its like 650 thousand miles, also the methodology is retarded, that's probably the servers returning information based on the query location, not the actual user location

Why are you repeating yourself? The location accuracy up to 650 thousand mile radius isn't usefull at all

you are misreading the map anon
>Discord's HQ is located in San Francisco, CA (which is in the outer circle) so this map is accurate. Stan is most likely located somewhere near the edge of the inner circle which is about ~300 miles.

You could probably get a more accurate location just finding out the ip address of anyone because the location is always the isp building from wich you need to be close to get service
