It’s not open source. Only source available unfortunately.

'Vortex Cannon vs Drone' - Mark Rober shows off tech from a "defense technology company that specializes in advanced autonomous systems". That seems bad

FYI: it’s queue (pronounced like Q, yes English is weird)

A Spy Site Is Scraping Discord and Selling Users’ Messages (www.404media.co)

An online service is scraping Discord servers en masse, archiving and tracking users’ messages and activity across servers including what voice channels they join, and then selling access to that data for as little as $5.
