There is always that one person who ruins the game for everyone, metaphorically speaking. Despicable behaviour.

"At some point in this period, they go on, Rockstar management got hold of logins for the server, with Rockstar's vice president of information security Abid Ansari eventually signing in to download 'the contents of the Announcements and General channels'. Rockstar began firing members of the Discord at the end of the month." Is this legal in the UK?

Sounds like Discord also has a case against RockStar because their ToS expressly forbids sharing login credentials. You wanted your IPO money, Discord? Suing the shit out of RockStar and winning is the way to go here.

This fall, buy Ocarina of Time and not GTA 6. Rockstar deserves no sales.
