Pentagon Warned Soldiers About Discord's Risks.

The US military has been using Discord to recruit Generation Z, but the platform's closed channels have made it difficult to control the risks of exposing military intelligence. A 21-year-old National Guard airman was recently arrested for sharing classified documents on the platform. The military is facing a dilemma of how to supervise a young workforce that has access to classified secrets but lives much of its life online. The Defense Department has adopted a nationwide strategy of using gaming and online culture to attract new troops, but the leaks could amplify calls in Washington to more closely monitor chatrooms and social media.
